Notes:
Each country have a list of facilities and DATIM(PEPFAR) has a list too and they have to match these different facilities
So, IH has to develop a tool to match the list and provide a MFL
Richard: The tool is a DHIS2 app in which you can reconcile map
What are the different formats a facility list are in?
Q: who will be the appropriate consumer and what is the use case for this consumer?
E.g to use the Facility Reconciliation app:
Upload MoH CSV and fill teh form (facility, code, longitude, levels like District, Region, etc.,...)
scoring happens in the background based upon algorithms - right now, looking at the parent and the name, uses levenstein and latitude and longitude physical distance algorithms
select to reconcile the data
User can then go through the lists to see what matches
Next Steps:
- can add automatic matching thresholds, such as similar geographic distances, though this depends on the quality of the data. Problems with multiple facilities in one building is also a problem (HIV clinic within a hospital)
- health site.io is a place where data can be added
- OpenLMIS matching with DHIS2
- Need to map two sources of facility data together
- - one time running of matching
- - may have different hierarchies
- Adds after a facility list has been mapped
Need a history of when you did the matching - date/time stamp
Can you maintain two hierarchies in FHIR
Map data to get additional metadata from other lists that are not in the orricial list
temporary facilities
facilities that are not shared
