Technology is increasingly used to enhance management practices in the health sector. These include but are not limited to information systems, procurement systems and payment systems. To stimulate and accelerate shared learning around the utility and best practices of these technology driven innovations, the center for digital health and innovation proposes a Community of Practice (CoP).
This CoP virtually congregates a group of people who share concerns, interests, or passion for digital payments in health and would like to learn how to do it better by interacting regularly with people undertaking similar pursuits. The CoP provides a forum for information exchange, sustained interaction, content curation, and professional networking which facilitates shared learning on processes, experiences and evidence on digitized payments of health workers of immunization programs/campaigns in selected Anglophone and Francophone countries.
Through sharing within this community of practice we hope to enhance and inform national, regional and global efforts to digitize payments for health workers by fostering and supporting evidence-based and evidence-driven decision making in Sub Saharan Africa.
The Digital Payments CoP is coordinated by a steering committee drawn from individuals from academia, and private organizations. The CoP will focus on three topical areas.
