public health programs work independently• Dis-integrated Hospital-based information• Missing information about private sector• Quality of information generated – not reliable• Non-utilization of information at micro and macro
levels• MIS component missing from regular training and
education programmes.• The current information systems is becoming
difficult to sustain given the available level of financial and human resources.
