Good Morning/Evenning,

What is the status of Interoperabiity between KenyaEMR and eCHIS?  
Are there any implementations that are currently sending data from eCHIS to KenyaEMR and back to eCHIS?  
If yes, what data elements are being eached between the two applications.  
Kindly share any insights, active implementations and links to materials that explains this workflow.  
Thank you.

Erick

Hi Erick, the integrations done so far are with the HIE, i.e the Client Registry and the Shared Health Record service. A high level view of this is: eCHIS acquires a person’s unique identifier from the Client Registry which it then uses when pushing health records to the Shared Health Record service. It’s a slight variation of what is in the docs [Overview – Community Health Toolkit](https://docs.communityhealthtoolkit.org/building/interoperability/overview/). For eCHIS specific docs, you’d have to reach out to someone from the Ministry of Health

Hi @ewafula, In our June Round-up, the Kenya eCHIS team presented and demoed the eCHIS Kenya\<\>TaifaCare HMIS interoperability workflows. It was a great session! You can watch this [video presentation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPHorre4g-0) to see the workflows in action.
