Morocco’s Ministry of Health and Social Protection is implementing a collaborative information system designed to centralize, secure, and disseminate national protocols for prevention, screening, diagnosis, and patient care. Through an integrated mobile application and administration platform, this project aims to harmonize care practices, strengthen professional coordination, and modernize medical reference management nationwide.
The digital transformation of the healthcare system extends to how medical protocols are designed, disseminated, and adopted by field professionals. The ministry’s project targets conception and implementation of a collaborative information system dedicated to managing and distributing health program protocols.
Conceived as an operational tool at national scale, this system targets all professionals working in primary healthcare facilities and specialized support structures, particularly those dedicated to tuberculosis, HIV, and viral hepatitis. The goal is guaranteeing unified, reliable, and updated access to official medical references while reinforcing practice consistency across all territory.
The project relies on creating a native mobile application enabling structured protocol consultation by health program, pathology, and procedure type. Contents are organized as standardized operational procedures and clinical algorithms, facilitating daily usage. Information searches are designed for speed and precision through simple and multi-criteria search functionalities.
A major system component involves converting existing PDF-format protocols into dynamic digital e-books, overcoming static support limitations that are often difficult to update and distribute effectively. Beyond reference consultation, the system functions as a collaborative platform integrating discussion spaces organized by thematic, hierarchical, or territorial logic, enabling professionals to exchange protocol insights, share documents, and relay current health program topics.
System security constitutes a central project pillar. The ministry emphasizes disseminated protocol authenticity, update operation traceability, and rigorous identification of authorized managers. Platform access relies on reinforced authentication mechanisms including biometric use alongside conventional credentials.
Scheduled from February to June 2026 and financed through the Global Fund support program, the project depends on technical assistance delivering a turnkey system including mobile application, administration interface, source codes, and management tools. Through this collaborative information system, the ministry establishes foundations for modernized health protocol management oriented toward usage, coordination, and medical information security.
