Health information technology systems have the capacity to improve health outcomes for the patients
thus ensuring quality and efficient services. Health information systems (HIS) are important tools in
guidance towards patient safety and better outcomes. 
Health information systems in Pakistan is not up to the mark. The equipment was mostly unavailable at
the primary healthcare facilities. The staff was also unsatisfied with the available services.
Administrative, financial, and human constraints were identified as the major barriers towards
successful implementation and management of HIS.
Pakistan's health information system needs to be improved. Institutional strengthening and
organizational development initiatives are needed. These may include defining the structure of
organizations; clarify roles, responsibilities and define career structure; resource management; overhaul
of training operations, from needs analysis to assessment; create a sense of responsibility; employee
motivation; giving incentives for good work and instill the spirit of work.
