OPESCare

OPESCare is the backbone of the OPES ecosystem. It assigns every patient a permanent, unique Health ID at their very first contact with any OPES-connected facility, then follows them for life — through every clinic visit, hospital admission, lab test, prescription, and specialist referral, across any participating facility in Cameroon and the CEMAC region.

Built on HL7 FHIR R4 standards, OPESCare acts as the interoperability hub that connects all 22 OPES software systems. When a patient registered at a clinic in Douala visits a hospital in Yaoundé, their complete history is immediately available — no re-registration, no duplicate tests, no lost records.

Who is OPESCare for?

  • Hospital networks operating across multiple sites
  • National and regional health authorities managing population data
  • Any facility deploying two or more OPES software systems
  • NGOs and government programmes requiring patient tracking
  • Insurance and CNPS partners needing verified patient identity

Problems OPESCare solves

1

Duplicate patient records across facilities — One Health ID eliminates re-registration and duplicate data entry at every new facility.

2

Fragmented medical histories — Lab results, prescriptions, and diagnoses from any connected facility appear in one unified record.

3

Inability to track patients across the care continuum — Follow a patient from primary clinic through specialist referral, hospitalisation, and discharge in one system.

4

No population health data for Ministry reporting — Aggregated, de-identified data feeds directly into HMIS and public health dashboards.
