<p>Health care is a devolved function in Kenya. However, certain health service remain the role of the national government and these include; health policy, financing, national referral hospitals, quality assurance and standards, health information, communication
and technology, national public health laboratories, public-private partnerships, monitoring and evaluation, planning and budgeting for national health service and maintenance of services provided by Kenya Medical Supplies Agency, National hospital Insurance
Fund, Kenya Medical Training College and Kenya Medical Research Institute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In the devolved government, the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjxzK_5_pfWAhVEXRQKHW0CDfMQFgguMAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fpublications.universalhealth2030.org%2Fref%2Fd6e32af10e5c515876d34f801774aa9a&usg=AFQjCNHtt1vGOai9uOmg6Z1ztEaXZixZ2w">Kenya
Health Policy 2014-2030</a>provides guidance to the health sector in terms of identifying and outlining the requisite activities in achieving the government’s health goals.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It provides an institutional framework and structure that specifies the new institutional and management arrangements required under the devolved system.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It also acknowledges the need for new governance and management arrangements at both levels of government and outlines governance objectives as delivery of efficient, cost effective and equitable health services, devolution of health service delivery, administration
and management to the community level, stakeholder participation and accountability in health service delivery.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>However, it has proven difficult to smoothly devolve these functions.<o:p></o:p></p>

with Health information which is really personal. My question is has the ministry of ICT or ICTA been involved in any way to shed some light on the project.<o:p></o:p></p>
