Request for Proposal (RFP)
TBPS-07.2021.121
Provision of IT services to implement Sistem Informasi Tuberkulosis (SITB) and Sistem Informasi Manajemen Rumah Sakit (SIMRS) interoperability
The U.S. Agency for International Development's (USAID) Tuberculosis Private Sector (TBPS) Activity supports the Government of Indonesia's (GOI's) goal of tuberculosis (TB) elimination by 2030. TBPS supports a vision for fully scalable, market-based and government-supported PPM programming that accelerates private-sector diagnosis, notification, and successful treatment to reduce TB incidence and mortality. To achieve this goal, TBPS will support Indonesia's journey to self-reliance in achieving TB elimination targets by improving TB diagnosis, treatment, and case notification by private providers.
TB is one of the priority health programs in Indonesia, however the implementation still faces many barriers including in recording and reporting TB cases. There is a gap between the number of TB patients diagnosed and treated in the health facilities and the total number of patients reported to National TB Program (NTP).
Mandatory TB case notification for all providers is stated in Minister of Health (MoH) Regulation No. 67 of 2016. NTP developed Sistem Informasi Tuberkulosis (SITB) application to support notification of TB cases from health facilities including hospitals. Other than SITB, hospitals also use Sistem Informasi Manajemen Rumah Sakit (SIMRS) or Hospital Management System (HMS) to record all patients' data including TB patients. In a hospital with good TB internal linkage, most TB cases diagnosed and treated in the hospital will be recorded and reported in SITB through the TB clinic. However, many hospitals still do not have functional internal linkages and even though they record patients in SIMRS, they don't report them through SITB, leading to underreporting of TB cases. Other than that, the use of multiple HMS creates work inefficiencies and increases the work burden of hospital staff.
NTP has created an Application Programming Interface (API) that acts as bridge between SIMRS and SITB, but this integration process is hindered due to many reasons e.g. capacity of the IT teams to modify HMS to and the number of hospitals that has their SIMRS integrated with SITB is less than 10%. The main cause of this delay is hospital's inability to adjust their system to meet the requirements of the integration and also there are many different platforms of SIMRS that are used by hospitals.
TBPS provide support to NTP to increase the coverage of SIMRS integration with SITB to increase TB case notification and reduce underreporting by helping to develop the SIMRS module for the hospital to be integrated with SITB and help NTP to upgrade SITB API if needed. TBPS will focus on 131 hospitals under the five biggest hospital chains.
This request for proposal seeks a firm/supplier to create the roadmap for SITB–SIMRS integration, improve algorithm and design of SITB–SIMRS integration, upgrade SITB API and provide support to NTP to increase the coverage of SITB–SIMRS integration by helping to integrate SIMRS of five big chain hospitals with a total of 131 hospitals to SITB.
