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.

  1. At the instrument

    Capture

    Results are collected automatically from connected diagnostic instruments — no re-typing.

  2. In the laboratory

    Combine & validate

    DataToCare Desktop joins each result with patient and sample data for technician review.

  3. Across the network

    Transmit

    Stored locally, then sent to the central server over the internet — or by SMS when no internet connection is available.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.
