Indonesia has demonstrated its preparedness in rolling-out COVID19 vaccination program and take an active global role from there. At that time, MoH adopt “One Health Data” approach in monitoring and digitizing the vaccination process by working synergistically with the Ministry of Communication and Information in registration phase (PEDULI LINDUNGI system), UNDP in supply-chain management of vaccines and related logistics (SMILE system) as well as with BPJS/the National Social Security Body in individual registry of vaccinated people (P-CARE system). As per 01 February 2023, the MoH has been managing data of COVID19 vaccine distribution of 454,4 million doses from provincial level down to 12,000 health facilities. Given the significant achievements from COVID19 vaccination, Directorate of Immunization built similar integrated approach for routine immunization by synergizing SMILE (Sistem Monitoring Imunisasi dan Logistik Elektronik) system and ASIK ( (Aplikasi Sehat Indonesiaku) system (a P-CARE mirroring system, but now developed by the MoH). Directorate General of Communicable Diseases Prevention and Control, Directorate of Immunization, Directorate General of Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices, Directorate of Pharmaceutical Management and Services, Data Center and Information, Digital Transformation Office as well as UNDP become more closely hand-in-hand in eliminating fragmentation by improving more integrated data visibility between logistics and beneficiaries of immunization program. UNDP has become more mature in assisting the MoH with SMILE system to plan the distribution, anticipate stock out, minimize expired vaccines due to neglection, and track the disposed vaccines at all levels transparently and real-time. Apart from immunization, there are still potential threats to Indonesia on health logistics insufficiency and inequity across the region. Medical and laboratory logistics is important to ensure that people receive the best possible early detection and care diseases in a timely manner. Therefore, supply-chain management for non-vaccine health commodities including laboratory supplies are still in the MoH health transformation agenda.

In late 2022, the MoH rolls out end-to-end supply chain management system where SMILE take part in monitoring the distribution, consumption, to disposal from manufacturer until the last mile within the chain. The Directorate of Pharmaceutical Management and Services decided to start the innovation of digitizing end to end supply-chain management in Aids, Tuberculosis, Malaria (ATM ) p rograms, then leverage it to all programs across public and private health facilities. The expansion of SMILE will likely strengthen governance, capacity and efficiencies of procurement and management of health-related commodities.

The program will focus on support to the Ministry of Health to address challenges in supply-chain management of medical commodities with four Outcomes and four Outputs, as follows:

Outcomes

1. Optimized distribution efficiency, projection and planning improved cost savings and enhanced reliability of the national procurement and supply chain system for HIV, malaria and TB health commodities across all tiers of public and private healthcare sectors
2. Improved availability, access and coverage of essential drugs and diagnostics at community health center, sustaining capacity of health and laboratory facilities to deliver TB, malaria and HIV prevention and treatment programs,
3. Improved accountability, transparency and integrity of the health supply chain, and empowering frontline health workers with more control and oversight over the prevention, treatment, and care services they provide.
4. Efficient processes and enabling environment to regulate and manage healthcare and laboratory waste, towards a more sustainable and resilient human and environmental health system

Outputs

1. Introduction and scale up of the SMILE digital technology, a cloud-based electronic logistics management information system (e-LMIS), for tracking health and laboratory commodities, as well as healthcare waste, across malaria, TB and HIV programs.
2. Comprehensive online dashboard for real-time visualization, data analytics and forecasting of key operational information and performance indicators, to inform planning and decision making for supply chain and healthcare waste management at all levels.
3. Strengthened institutional and workforce capacities on the use of the SMILE dashboards and application in health centers and health services, laboratories and across the healthcare waste chain network; and expanded number of active users and flow of transactions from Primary Health Care into SMILE system.
4. National policies, SOPs, strategies and manuals/guidelines for the national health products procurement and supply chain management systems that include the use of a cloud-based eLMIS (SMILE) in logistic chain management of HIV, TB and malaria health commodities, laboratory supplies and healthcare waste.
