Published impact findings

More than a connection.
A difference in care.

DataToCare’s published impact assessment links diagnostic connectivity with more results transmitted and less time between diagnosis and treatment.

Estimated lives saved

≈ 2,410*

Projection based on the current test total.

Reported financial savings

> US$3M

Cumulative savings reported by DataToCare since its first deployments in 2016.

* Estimated lives saved are extrapolated from the total test count using the September 2023 TB model at 0.00198 per test, rather than measured outcomes.

From diagnosis to treatment

to start treatment.

The published before/after graphic compares diagnosis-to-treatment time. It does not measure only laboratory processing time.

The original lives-saved estimate was 1,200+ in September 2023; the projection above is recalculated from the test total using that assessment’s model.

Burundi

Connected laboratories, from the capital to the provinces.

56 laboratories

DataToCare connects Burundi’s laboratory teams to a shared view of diagnostic activity. GeneXpert connectivity, QuantStudio test-history recovery and central Web dashboards bring results together across the network. Delivered with UNDP and the Ministry of Health, the programme pairs instrument integration with practical Desktop and Web training, giving local teams the tools and skills to manage laboratory data and support continued deployment.

What connectivity supports

Behind every number,
a working connection.

01 / Laboratory

Capture at the source

Instrument results join laboratory workflows, with local storage when the network is unavailable.

02 / Care team

Carry the result forward

Configured result delivery connects the laboratory with the people waiting for information.

03 / Programme

Understand the network

Dashboards and Intelligence help teams review activity, investigate unusual patterns and understand the supporting evidence.
