- **Purpose of consultancy**

This consultancy aims to support the Government of Egypt in its efforts in achieving progress towards universal health coverage (UHC) through strengthening its health information system. As part of WHO support to universal health insurance (UHI) implementation in Egypt particularly its information management component, WHO will contract an information systems expert with vast experience in building providers’ information system in the context of UHI system.
- **Background**

According to the new UHI law issued by the Government of Egypt in 2014, insurance coverage for all Egyptians will be rolled-out all over the country in 6 phases over 15-years. As mentioned in the law, the health system will be restructured into a) Universal Health Insurance Agency (UHIA) which serves as strategic purchaser of health services covered by the insurance system, b) Egyptian Healthcare Authority (EHA) serving as the public “provider” of health services to the insured population; and 3) the General Authority for Healthcare Accreditation and Regulation (GAHAR) as the “accreditor and technical regulator” of providers.

Implementation of this new UHI system will involve introduction of significant changes in the requirements and flow of data and information needed to manage functions of both provider and purchaser particularly in the light of current organizational restructuring separating financing from provision of health services, and the mandates and obligations of each in terms of data and information management and exchange.

In preparation for development of UHI information system, WHO intends to support upgrade the health information system (HIS), medical records management and accelerate the implementation of international coding systems, including International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD11), to improve specificity and consistency of the coded data.

Medical records are of great importance and necessary for current and future patient care, as used in the management and planning of health care facilities and services, for medical research, the extraction of health care statistics and for the management and control of medical insurance system.

Civil registration is “The continuous, permanent, compulsory, and universal recording of the occurrence and characteristics of vital events (live births, deaths, etc.) provided through degree or regulation in accordance with legal requirement of each country”.

CRVS allows governments, including ministries of health and population (MOHP)s to make better informed decisions and provide more targeted public services. Vital statistics is used to measure progress in different areas such as access to education, achieving gender equality and reducing inequalities.
