How DataToCare works
From a diagnostic result to a decision.
One result, five hand-offs. DataToCare automates each of them — and keeps working when the network doesn’t.
At the instrument
Capture
Results are collected automatically from connected diagnostic instruments — no re-typing.
In the laboratory
Combine & validate
DataToCare Desktop joins each result with patient and sample data for technician review.
Across the network
Transmit
Stored locally, then sent to the central server over the internet — or by SMS when no internet connection is available.
At national level
See & share
DataToCare Web brings results into dashboards, maps and reports, and sends data to the programme’s own health information systems, including DHIS2, through configured connections.
At the point of care
Act
Prescribers and patients are notified by SMS or email, so treatment decisions don’t wait for paper.
Follow one result
One result.
Every step connected.
See how a result moves from the instrument to validation, national visibility and a notification to the clinician — even after a network interruption.
Transmission timing depends on local networks. DataToCare is designed to store results safely and send them as soon as a connection is available.

Alongside result delivery, authorized aggregated data can inform programme decisions.
