Asha Disease Profile for Android

Telangana is the youngest state with a population of about 35 million. Government of Telangana is committed to provide comprehensive healthcare which include promotive, preventive, curative and end of life care to all the citizens of state. There is always a need to assess the disease and risk factor burden to meticulously plan to provide the services to the citizens of the state. There are many national programs dealing with various health related issues. Under every program Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) is the first interphase between the community and public health system. ASHA plays an important role in facilitating the access to healthcare, building awareness among the public about the available services, promote healthy behaviors and linking the needy to the healthcare system. As a part of providing care and implementation of various programs, ASHA makes house to house visits to collect the information about the various diseases at various times. To minimize the burden of multiple visits and manual compilation of manually collected information, Government of Telangana has come up with an innovative idea of community based comprehensive risk and disease assessment by using an application-based questionnaire. ASHA disease profile application is designed to capture the information about the risk factors and symptoms of various communicable and Non-Communicable diseases from all the individuals of the state.
