The Relationship

This chapter examines the relationship between humanitarian assistance and long-term development goals, including outlining the World Health Organization building blocks for health systems, how they can be impacted in emergencies, and how humanitarian programming can support, rather than hinder, their development. This chapter highlights the challenges of providing effective healthcare in a resource-poor context and emphasizes mechanisms to provide assistance which consider the long-term development goals of the country. It clarifies what humanitarian healthcare workers can do to ensure effective aid that delivers immediate healthcare relief to patients, which considers connections with the existing healthcare system, and provides performance standards which can be used to guide responses.

The application of information technology in healthcare has focused primarily on the implementation of specific systems such as electronic health records (EHRs) and clinical decision support systems (CDSSs), mainly for intra-enterprise use. However, for the integrated health system (IHS) to function effectively in a complex inter-enterprise healthcare delivery environment, designers must focus on approaches such as soft systems methodology (SSM) to enable the design of robust integrated digital health systems (IDHSs). A service-oriented architecture (SOA) offers a flexible framework for IDHSs to become de-centralized, fully functional and modular systems with interoperability. This article identifies the design issues in IDHS and explores the potential of an SSM methodology-based SOA for the development of interoperable IDHSs. In the process we compare and contrast the functionalist socio-technical approach to the interpretive SSM. We also describe a prototype SOA application for an IDHS setting and discuss challenges in the application of SOA to healthcare.
