The Challenge

Ministries of health run frontline services across thousands of facilities and health workers, often with data trapped on paper or in disconnected pilots.

Fragmented, paper-based data

Little timely visibility into frontline delivery across districts.

Pilots that never scale

Projects stall before national rollout, or never integrate.

Data ownership & sustainability

Governments must own, host, and sustain their own systems.

CommCare in action

Built for National Programs

FRONTLINE

Offline-first mobile app

Frontline and community health workers collect data with no connectivity and sync when they reconnect, on devices governments can deploy at scale.

  • Works fully offline, syncs on reconnect
  • Runs on low-cost Android devices
  • Deployable across districts at scale
  • Structured workflows for frontline service delivery

INTEROPERABLE

Standards-based integration

Community-level data flows into the systems your ministry already runs, through open APIs and the standards national programs depend on.

  • Open APIs for system-to-system data exchange
  • Integration with national systems such as DHIS2
  • FHIR support for health-data interoperability
  • Fits the architecture your ministry already operates
