Abstract

Data inform patient care and public health programming, and increase understanding of an epidemic's evolution and successful interventions. The US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief investments in digital data systems facilitates data availability to those making decisions about treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections, interrupting HIV transmission, and allocating resources for HIV services. This article presents a case study from Haiti showing how digital investments support clinical care, community services, and disease surveillance. An algorithm of biometric identification and person characteristics links records across these systems to provide a more complete picture than would be possible from any of the individual digital solutions.

Keywords: data; deduplication; digital systems; treatment continuity.
