According to a recent study, adopting electronic health records (EHRs) shows promise in reducing hospital mortality over time. Initially, more EHR functions correlate with higher mortality rates, but mortality rates decrease as these systems mature and new functions are added. While smaller and nonteaching hospitals experience greater benefits, investing in EHRs can improve hospital performance. Patience is key as positive outcomes develop gradually. As the South African healthcare landscape adopts these technologies and converts from paper-based models, we could expect to see more interoperability and cross-sector data-sharing strategies come to fruition.

Advancing health equity in primary care is truly a team effort. In 2022, we partnered with the Primary Care Collaborative to publish a report on how primary care is a key lever to advancing health equity. The report identified concrete, practice and policy-level actions that primary care stakeholders can pursue to reduce inequities and take steps toward achieving health equity. Partnerships like these help us address persistent health disparities, such as lower life expectancies among people of color, indigenous people, rural communities, and individuals facing socioeconomic challenges.
