Introduction
With the global momentum to scale up the response to various diseases, there is a need to implement various strategies to increase accountability in hospital settings by developing, implementing, and evaluating tools geared towards improving patient’s health (Grisot, M., & Vassilakopoulou, 2013). Data exchange between health care practitioners and targeted patient groups. With the upsurge of technology in the health care sector, stakeholders demand effective health care and value for their money. With this in mind, the IT sector has developed a portal to improve clinical care processes, patient’s quality health care, and safety.
As such, the project was designed to create an effective evaluation tool convenient for both the health practitioners and the patient. Communication systems are being constantly improved to help in completing tasks. The information systems combine evidence about numerous health care services and get instructions to guarantee patient’s needs are taken care of and that the follow-up process is timely and complete. The goal of the project was to create an evaluation tool that would be practical, usable anywhere, and not be limited to time and other factors such as the internet. To help evaluate workable portable capabilities, the main concern for the portal was to schedule an appointment online, viewing hXXXXX information such as lab XXXXXXX and clinical XXXXX, checking XXX filling a XXXXXXXXXXXX, update of medical XXXXXXX, XXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX and reminder XXXXXXXX to clients, phones.

At XXX XXXX XX implementation
XXX framework provided a systematic way XX improve XXX XXXXXX care XXXXXX by improving XXXXXXXXXX that are helpful and feasible XXX XXX health care system. XXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX of XXXXXXX evaluation measures. XXX first step was XX engage the XXXXXXXXXXXX that invested in the program.
XXXXX, XXXXXXXX were XXXXXXXX in XXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX of the XXXXXX XX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX XXXXX treatment processes. The XXXXXXXX department is busy and has few personnel to deal XXXX XXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX. XXXXXXXXXXX' XXXXXXX XXX XXXXXXXXX not XX recorded that XXXX could XXXXX losses to XXX hospital XXXXXXXXXX. Evaluation XXXX XXX XXXX in several XXXXXXXXXX such XX XXXXXXXX appointment XXXXXX, viewing health information XXXX XX lab XXXXXXX and clinical notes, checking and filling XXX XXXXXXXXXXXX, XXXXXX of XXXXXXX history and
XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX to XXXXXXX, XXXXXX.
The evaluation XXXXXXX was carried out XXXXXXXXXXX to XXXXXXXXX the capability of the XXXXXXX program XXXXX XX later to be XXXXXXXXXXXX into the program. XXX XXXXXXXXXX process XXXX XXXXXXX depend XX XXX XXXXXX of XXXXXXXXXXXX XXX XXXXXXX XXX portal XXX the focus is on XXXXXXXXXX treatment, XXXX, XXX support XXX XXX XXXXXXXXXXXX. The XXXX XXXX XXXXX a total XX XX XXXXXXXXX in XXX IT department XX XXXXXXXX XXX use of the XXXXXX. The XXXXXX XXX run for XXXXX months XXXXX which XXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXX the XXXXX on XXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XX the XXXXXXXXXX kit. The XXXXXXX XXXX be XXXX to run since the XX department is XXXXXXX to run the XXXXXXX XX XXXXXX of XXX XXXX. Initially, XXXXXXXXXX the patient’s information and XXXXXX XX was an uphill XXXX. The nature of the XXXXXXX matter required a XXXXX search strategy XXX XXXXX XXXXXXXX. The XXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX research XXXXXXXXX the program. XXX publications dating XXXX XXXX XX XXXX XXXXX in the XXXXXXXXXX analysis XXXXXXXX XXX the analysis process. XXX XXXX XXXXXXXX a XXXXXX XXXX XXXX the XXXXXXXX, community, and the XXXXXX care program.
XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXX implementation
During the third XXXXX of XXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXX and team XXXXXXXXXX, there was an XXXXXXXXXX 65 personnel.
