Two important global developments are likely to emerge as key drivers in shaping the requirements of public health informatics, defining its processes, and judging its performance. These are the challenges of measuring progress towards universal health coverage (UHC) and towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (post-2015 SDGs). To meet this challenge, four data sources—population surveys, primary care service data, hospital information, and Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS)—have to be rethought, restructured, and aligned within a framework architecture informed by an Expanded PHI perspective. But architecture is in itself a problematic—with different ideologies and contexts shaping it in varied, often contradictory ways. It is only an expanded understanding of public health informatics that could help address these complexities.

Abstract Maternal health is one of the 169 targets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While the SDGs are less focused on maternal health than their predecessors, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the SDGs’ commitments to multisectoral development, health systems, universal health coverage and equity could provide the foundations for sustainable advances in maternal health.

There is optimism that the inclusion of universal health coverage in the Sustainable Development Goals advances its prominence in global and national health policy. However, formulating indicators for Target 3.8 through the Inter-Agency Expert Group on Sustainable Development Indicators has been challenging. Achieving consensus on the conceptual and methodological aspects of universal health coverage is likely to take some time in multi-stakeholder fora compared with national efforts to select indicators.
