Transforming Early Infant Diagnosis in South Sudan – A Data-Driven Healthcare Solution

Themes: Innovation, Adaptive Management & CQI

Opportunity:

With Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) coverage below 50%, South Sudan’s fragile healthcare system required innovative tracking, diagnostics, and patient follow-up solutions to enhance pediatric HIV outcomes.

Strategic Intervention:

A data-driven Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) model introduced EID calendars for enhanced data tracking, mobile appointment reminders, and stakeholder-driven interventions, improving service efficiency and patient engagement.

Market Impact:

This initiative highlights a growing demand for AI-driven patient tracking, digital diagnostics, and telehealth solutions in emerging healthcare markets, offering significant private sector investment potential.
