Abstract: 

In Lesotho, the Ministry of Health and key donors have made significant advancements to develop digital health solutions specific to HIV services including an eRegister which is interoperable with the health management information system, pharmacy services and the laboratory information system. New investments from the Millennium Challenge Corporation will expand digital health services to all reported communicable and non-communicable disease areas at health facilities throughout the country. This paper explores how digital health interventions designed to support comprehensive HIV care can be leveraged to provide universal digital health coverage. Specifically, three priority areas will be addressed: (i) governance, security, and system architecture (ii) power, connectivity, and equipment (iii) human resources and change management.
