Integrated Healthcare Services Architecture Ecosystem
(SIMPUS)
Background
Data integration is very important in healthcare facilities. A lack of an integrated data system can result in inaccuracies and inefficiencies in delivering healthcare services.
The Ministry of Health aimed to achieve more seamless data integration through SATUSEHAT (the official government health application). Community health centers (Puskesmas) need an easier system to store and submit data to SATUSEHAT.
Approach
In support of the Ministry of Health's digital transformation agenda, Interbio Technologies has collaborated with the Ministry, alongside Prospera and PathGen, to design the Integrated Healthcare Services Architecture Ecosystem. This initiative supports the strategic objectives of improving service delivery, strengthening data governance, and enabling sustainable health system reform.
The newly introduced SIMPUS model unifies multiple different applications with overlapping functions into one integrated platform, reducing redundancy and easing the data entry burden on health workers. This architecture is built to meet industrial standards, emphasizing security, high availability, operational efficiency, and balanced load distribution, while aligning with the organizational structure and cost-efficiency objectives.
The system is founded on validated and authenticated data, utilizing a bottom-up integration approach that ensures data from Puskesmas is refined and systematically consolidated within the national Satu Sehat platform. A key enabler within this ecosystem is the transformation of SIMPUS into a single, standardized point of data entry.
Result
We successfully created a centralized SIMPUS scheme that integrates 70 applications into a single data entry.
The team also produced a blueprint for centralized SIMPUS development—including a prototype, architecture, and data structure—which is used by SIMPUS developers.
