“…These assessments (population and institutional surveys) revealed the limitations of the HIS and that very few studies have performed such investigations. One of the studies used the JPFHS of 2017 to integrate a module on health system capacity and performance in the data collection instrument [20,23]. This allowed important findings that showed the severe inequitable distribution of health sector capacity, insurance coverage, and health sector performance by four stratifiers [20].…”

Background This study is based on extensive evidence-based assessments. The aim of this paper is to evaluate how well Jordan’s health information system (HIS) incorporates social determinants of health inequity (SDHI) and to propose suggestions for future actions. Methods An extensive evidence-based assessment was performed. A meta-synthesis of the inclusion of the SDHI in the HIS in Jordan was conducted. After searching and shortlisting, 23 papers were analyzed using Atlas.ti 9.0 employing thematic analysis technique. Results The HIS in Jordan is quite comprehensive, comprising numerous data sources, various types of information, and data from multiple producers and managers. Nevertheless, the HIS confronts several obstacles and fails to ensure the timely and secure publication of available data. The assessment of the inclusion of the SDHI in the HIS showed that the HIS allows for the measurement of progress in relation to social policies and actions but has a very limited database for supporting the inclusion of health inequity measures. One reason for the difficulty in identifying fairness is that certain crucial information necessary for this task cannot be obtained through the available institutional HIS or population survey tools. Additionally, relevant modules for fairness may be missing from population surveys, possibly due to a failure to fully utilize the capabilities of the institutional HIS. Conclusion There are opportunities to make use of Jordan’s dedication to fairness and its already established strong HIS. Some social determinants of health exist in the HIS, but much more data, information, and effort are needed to integrate the SDHI into the Jordanian HIS. A proposal from a regional initiative has put forward a comprehensive set of indicators for integrating SDHI into HIS, which could aid in achieving health equity in Jordan.

Hakeem is one of the e-health systems that were implemented in Jordan to support the health care and services of medical sectors by connecting public health hospitals all around Jordan. This paper was carried out as a unique and first study to investigate the effectiveness of Hakeem health system according to the international health information systems standards. The health metrics network (HMN) framework and standards for country health information systems are used to measure the Hakeem system from different perspectives to ensure that it meets its objectives to maintain the required level of medical services in Jordan compared to international systems. The study was conducted on 522 respondents of Hakeem system users from four hospitals and ten health centers in Jordan. Data were collected by a valid and reliable questionnaire and interviews and analyzed by SPSS software. The study results indicated that the conformity extent of Hakeem system's components with HMN framework and standards are in different agreements percentages. Some components are with acceptable percentages such as the integration polices and data processing while other components are with moderate, low, and very lower percentages that needed improvements. In light of the results, the study introduces some recommendations to improve Hakeem systems such as improving the technical support of the entire system and the services used in the pharmacy unit.
