App Case Types and Relationships

Like many CommCare applications, this application uses case management to keep track of progress of various points of interest. To learn more about the case types and relationships, please review your application's case summary.

This application was designed to be used as a stand alone application or to easily integrate with an existing Health Care Provider/Facility level application. This application makes use of a single case type and all information is saved to the health_care_provider case which can be re-configured to fit into an existing structure if needed.
