Led by the Inter-American Development Bank [IDB](https://www.iadb.org/en),\nthe Pan-American Health Organization [PAHO](https://www.paho.org/en) and the countries of the region, this initiative aims to\nfacilitate the exchange of health data in a secure, efficient and interoperable manner, both within and\nbetween countries, allowing people in the region to share and access their health information. PH4H\npromotes regional synergies by maximizing national investments for the exchange of health information.\nIn addition, PH4H facilitates continuous coordination with regional organizations and networks in digital\nhealth, thus strengthening integration and efficiency in the health sector.\n\nThe main goal of PH4H is to deliver better health services to patients regardless of their location.\nThe project seeks to improve the health care of those who temporarily move for work or other reasons. For\nmigrants populations, it will enable sharing medical histories, which may improve their opportunities for better employment and\neducation. In addition, the PH4H will strengthen public health surveillance,\noptimize access to limited human resources, and foster research and innovation, resulting in more\nefficient public health policies and improved regional economies. As a result, countries will be better\nprepared for future pandemics and other health threats. Cross-border use cases that can be\nimplemented within PH4H are included in this repository.\n\nUnlike a physical route, a PH4H transcends borders, allowing universal access without leaving\nanyone behind. The initiative, which will be officially launched at the end of 2024, is supported by the Government of Japan's\nFund for Quality Infrastructure, Disaster Resilience and Health. We look forward to more partners joining us on this transformative journey.\n\nWithin the \u003ca href=\"input/pagecontent/index.md\"\u003ePH4H trust framework\u003c/a\u003e, participating countries agree on a range of [use cases](https://github.com/WorldHealthOrganization/smart-ph4h/blob/main/input/pagecontent/trust_domain_use_cases.md), underpinned by a pre-established governance mechanism subject to ongoing discussion. \nThese use cases, while varying in their level of applicability, collectively reflect the needs and priorities of the participating nations. \nA preliminary set of use cases is presented below for consideration and discussion among participating countries, with the aim of reaching consensus.\nFor this purpose, the following taxonomy has been defined to group the use cases and to classify them.\n\n# PH4H Usecase Taxonomy\n| Use Case Group | Specific usecases |\n|---|---|\n| Digital Vaccine Certification | COVID-19 (or global emergent vaccine required for travel/work) \u003cbr\u003e IHR: Yellow Fever/Polio \u003cbr\u003e Routine Child Immunizations \u003cbr\u003e Routine Adult Immunizations |\n| Digital Certification of Health Documents | Prescriptions \u003cbr\u003e Lab Results \u003cbr\u003e Medical Certificates \u003cbr\u003e Birth Certificates \u003cbr\u003e Death Certificate |\n| International Patient Summary |Migrant \u003cbr\u003e Tourist \u003cbr\u003e Student|\n| Digital Certification of Professional or Education Credentials |Health Care Worker credentials (e.g. professional registration) \u003cbr\u003e Education credentials|\n| Cross-border Telehealth |Provider-to-provider (e-consult/2nd opinion) \u003cbr\u003e Remote digital diagnostic interpretation (imaging, etc) \u003cbr\u003e Patient-to-provider|\n| Public Health |Surveillance \u003cbr\u003e Research | \n| Digital Certification of Supply Chain Integrity of Medications and Supplies | Medication supply chain validation | \n| Digital Health Knowledge Exchange | Knowledge hub |  \n\n[PH4H Github Site Index](https://github.com/WorldHealthOrganization/smart-ph4h/blob/main/input/pagecontent/index.md)\n\n[The Pan-American Highway for Digital Health Flyer](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/17232390/The.Pan-American.Highway.for.Digital.Health.1-page.pdf)\n\n[PH4H Newsletter Subscription](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/17232393/PH4H.Newsletter.Subscription.pdf)\n\nThis framework is published under a Creative Commons - IGO [license](LICENSE.md).\n \n## Changes and feedback\n\nFeedback and issues about this empty framework can be submitted via the [issues](issues) page, and will be incorporated into subsequent releases.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fsmart-ph4h","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fsmart-ph4h","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fsmart-ph4h/lists"}
