	Despite the existence of an eHealth architecture that includes health information exchange as one component, the Ethiopian healthcare system is comprised of numerous independent EMR systems. There is a lack of standardized EMR systems in the country, and the majority of clinical information systems were designed with donor interests. Furthermore, there is a lack of standardized clinical terminologies, unique identifiers for health professionals and patients, and clinical data repositories. The result is disaggregated and non-harmonized data collected by multiple applications and stored in different locations and formats that cannot be integrated. As a result, the Ethiopian Ministry of Health intended to create working documents for a community of practice to exchange health information.
