Dimagi is a software social enterprise based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and is one of the world’s largest providers of technology for frontline health workers. Our open source technology platform, CommCare, is the world’s most widely-used mobile data collection and service delivery platform. CommCare was designed as an ‘offline first’ mobile application and is optimized for offline use cases at scale.

  • COVID-19 Contact Tracing: Once lab-confirmed cases are identified, the system users input information about these cases’ contacts. These contacts then receive daily SMS text messages checking in on their health and symptoms throughout the 14-day monitoring period. They can self-report symptoms via text, immediately alerting public health officials that follow up or testing may be required. This system does notcollect information about contacts' GPS locations.

Dimagi is partnering with state and local governments across the United States. One of our projects, with the San Francisco Department of Public Health in California, University of California at San Francisco (UCSF), and the CDC recently deployed a variation of the US COVID-19 Local Response

System

. The system was rapidly developed usingCommCare, allowing Department of Public Health officials and UCSF public health officials, students, and librarians to easily track both COVID-19 cases and contacts over time.

You can review a case study of this work here.

The web application part of the system (not the SMS piece) is available to be demoed here.

  • To login, please use the following login credentials: Username: demo / Password: 123

    • System Features and Demo

    This system is comprised of two parts:

    1. A web or mobile portal for approved healthcare administrators and members of the COVID-19 response teams

    2. SMS for registered cases and contacts to communicate with healthcare officials

    Features of the system include:

    • Customizable logic and algorithms to support screening & triaging workflows.

    • Configurable case lists designed to help users quickly identify priority patients.

    • Flexible user permissions applied to enable or restrict access to patient data.

    • Automated email notifications to guide your team and alert staff when follow up action is required.

    Deploying the System

    Dimagi staff are available to help partners customize and implement existing templates applications, as well as other CommCare or related technologies. CommCare software can be designed, developed and deployed by non-developers through an easy-to-use interface. Dimagi has the ability in the short-term to provide in-kind implementation support for partners who do not have funds available to support deployment of this system as we seek additional funding to meet the  growing demand.

    If you would like more information on how to deploy the system, please contact info@dimagi.com and our team will get in touch shortly. Please note that we are currently handling a high number of requests from several US counties, but are doing our best to support as many counties as we can.
