Data Sources

HIC integrates nine national health information systems. All sources are polled by Prefect pipelines that call each system’s REST API and land raw data into PostgreSQL staging tables.

Source system details

HMIS / DHIS2 — aggregate.moh.gov.rw

National routine health data. Provides aggregate reports by facility across all health programs. This is the primary source for facility-level indicator reporting.

HMIS Tracker — tracker.moh.gov.rw

Program-based patient-level tracking via DHIS2 Tracker. Covers TB, maternal health audit, perinatal audit, child audit, CRVS, and birth registration programs.

eFICHE

Outpatient clinical records system. Covers patient visits, laboratory tests, and inventory management at facility level.

CRVS

Civil registration and vital statistics. Birth and death registrations are ingested via the HMIS Tracker pipeline.

EBUZIMA

Maternal health program data.

HPEMR

Electronic medical records for health posts — the community-level care tier.

IDSR (Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response)

Weekly epidemic and non-epidemic disease surveillance. Two ingestion paths: direct IDSR system and aggregated disease surveillance via DHIS2.

Immunization Tracker

Routine immunization program records at patient level.

HIV Tracker

HIV program data — enrollments, events, and tracked entities. Configured for immediate (weekly) reporting cadence.

Cancer Registry — his.moh.gov.rw/oncology/

Oncology tracked entity instance (TEI) data from the national cancer registry.

A unified tracker ingestion framework (workflows/ingestions/unified/) is being rolled out to replace legacy per-source tracker pipelines. During transition, unified tables are prefixed u_ for parallel validation.
