ESLAVA-RINCON, Julia Isabel et al. Analysis of the Response Capacity of the Health Information Systems to Oversee the Risks Affecting the Right to Health in Colombia. Rev. Gerenc. Polit.

'llm article aims to disclose the response capacity of the Health Information Systems (HIS) in Colombia to support an inspection, s urveillance and control model (ISC) driven towards the monitoring of the risks undermining the access, use and quality of the health services. This paper is based on a descriptive cross-sectional study under a risk management approach including a review of the regulations framework dealing with the threats to the effective enjoyment of the right to health (EERH) and the characteristics of the information reported by the actors in the system, which is required to carry out the said monitoring. The data supporting the monitoring to the health care processes and its impact on the population health are not enough to appropriately oversee the risks involved. Advantage should be taken from the changes currently taking place in the health system in order to rethink how the system performance is taken as monitored object.
