St. Kitts and Nevis has launched a National Digital Health Information System (NDHIS) to improve healthcare delivery for its 51,000 citizens by integrating electronic health records, AI decision support, and facilitating regional health information exchange. The platform, which operates at a 99.9% uptime target, includes separate portals for patients, providers, pharmacies, and insurers, while supporting comprehensive interoperability standards for cross-border health record exchange.
The NDHIS implements robust security measures aligned with HIPAA standards and offers tools for facility operators to enhance operational efficiency and clinical decision-making. Its launch aligns with the Federation’s National Digital Health Strategy 2025-2030, aiming for a fully integrated health information ecosystem by 2030, while ensuring transparency and user-friendly access to health data.
