Title
Malawi - Health Facility Registry
Description
The main purpose of the [Malawi Health Facility Registry](https://zipatala.health.gov.mw/) is to provide an easily accessible national online database containing a comprehensive list of health facilities in the country for purposes of facilitating planning for service delivery and performance accountability. The Ministry of Health and Population maintains a comprehensive list of all health facilities in Malawi with a purpose of strengthening health service delivery. The list was previously maintained through a spreadsheet file which made it difficult to update and to access especially by the decision makers. Additionally, various sections of the Ministry have been maintaining parallel health facility lists making it harder to share and triangulate data across systems. To address these challenges, the Ministry has implemented an online Master Health Facility Registry (MHFR). The MHFR is a web service with a user interface to allow health workers get access to the full list of facilities and view summaries through the dashboard in addition to performing custom queries depending of specific information Please consult the [official website](https://zipatala.health.gov.mw/) to get the most updated database
