优质的卫生管理需要及时且准确的数据，而纸质报告无法充分满足这一需求。疟疾快速诊断检测的引入以及无线通信的应用为基层卫生工作者和中心管理人员之间开启直接的数据传输和反馈提供了机会。2009年11月，乌干达卫生部在两个地区部署了一个基于短信服务的报告系统。每个卫生机构的安装成本为100美元，每月当地技术人员支持费用为400美元，每个诊所每周成本为0.53美元，该短信报告系统在140多家诊所启动。在卡巴莱，快速诊断检测的阳性率和青蒿素联合疗法缺货率分别为48%和54%；在古卢分别为71%和54%，以及其他报告内容，超过85%的卫生机构每周进行报告，且没有金钱奖励或额外监督。基于短信的报告系统有可能以较低成本提高特定的、对时间敏感的指标报告的及时性，同时绕过当前数据流动中的瓶颈。随着在地区层面管理库存数据的特定能力的发展，及时数据的可用性为解决商品配送问题和减少缺货提供了可能。
Quality health management requires timely and accurate data, and paper-based reporting does not fill this role adequately. The introduction of malaria rapid diagnostic tests and the availability of wireless communications present an opportunity to open direct data transmission and feedback between peripheral health workers and central managers. In November 2009, the Uganda Ministry of Health deployed a short message service–based reporting system in two districts. At a set-up cost of $100/health facility, local technician support of $ 400 per month, and a cost of $0.53/week/clinic, the SMS reporting system was started at more than 140 clinics. Positivity rates for rapid diagnostic tests and artemisinin combination therapy stock outs were 48% and 54% in Kabale and 71% and 54% in Gulu, among other reports, at more than 85% health facilities reporting weekly and without monetary incentives or additional supervision. The SMS-based reporting systems have potential to improve timeliness in reporting of specific, time-sensitive metrics at modest cost, while by-passing current bottlenecks in the flow of data. With the development of specific capacity to manage stock data at district level, the availability of timely data offers potential to address commodity distribution problems and reduce stock-outs.
