Open Health Data Exchange · Patient-controlled

An open health information exchange. Powered by patients.

AfriMed HIE is an innovative interoperability network that any provider, lab, pharmacy, insurer, or digital health innovator can plug into — and where the patient decides who sees their data, when, and why.

The HIE Stack

An open exchange. Built around the patient.

Every layer a modern exchange needs — identity, terminology, consent, and analytics — designed so any health actor can join and the patient stays in control.

Master Patient Index

Match patients across facilities by patient ID, AfriMed ID, phone, or facility MRN.

Facility & Provider Registries

A single source of truth for every health facility and licensed clinician in the network.

Longitudinal Health Record

Encounters, diagnoses, labs, medications, immunizations — across facilities, on one timeline.

Lab & Diagnostics Exchange

Order, result, and share lab data across labs and clinical sites with normalized LOINC codes.

Pharmacy & Prescription Exchange

E-prescribing, dispensing records, and cross-facility medication history.

Supply Intelligence

Connect medicine availability and stock data with care delivery and public health planning.

Consent & Privacy

Patient-level consent capture, purpose-of-use access, and emergency override workflows.

Security & Audit

RBAC, MFA-ready, full audit trail of every record viewed, created, or shared.

Public Health Analytics

Disease surveillance, maternal indicators, immunizations, and district dashboards.

Our principle

Connect first. Replace nothing. Improve everything.

AfriMed HIE doesn't replace the systems hospitals already run. It connects them — so patients, providers, and policymakers all benefit from data that finally moves.

A patient journey

From a clinic in Wakiso to a referral in Kampala — without losing a single record.

Esther presents at Kawempe HC IV with persistent fever. The clinician searches her on AfriMed HIE, sees her past malaria episode at Mulago, checks consent, orders labs, and refers her — all without re-asking the same questions.
