How researchers can use it

- Interrupted time series and other quasi-experimental designs.
- Checking facility caseloads before choosing study sites.
Monthly facility reports on outpatient visits, maternal and child health, family planning, immunisation, HIV, TB, malaria and other services.
Access the data
- Get ethics approval for your study first; most requests ask for it.
- Write to the Ministry of Health's Division of Health Information with your protocol, the indicators, districts and period you need.
- Follow up; timelines vary.
Methodological cautions
- There is no public self-service portal; the request steps here are general and should be confirmed with the Ministry.
- Routine data have gaps and late reports. Plan a data quality check (completeness, outliers) before analysis.
