ABSTRACT
This Digital-Health Vision for Action charts a course to sharpen the investments in digital technologies by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to unlock significant gains for health institutions, health workers, citizens, and host governments in low- and middleincome countries (LMIC) alike. Consistent with USAID's Digital Strategy, the goal of this Vision is to move the Agency beyond an era of funding characterized by fragmented pilots and siloed, programspecific information-technology systems, and toward a future shaped by investments in health strategies led and managed at the country level, and in systems that host governments and their local partners can operate, expand, and sustain independently over time. This Vision, and the strategic shift in approach it signals, is essential to enabling the Journey to SelfReliance1 in USAID's partner countries in a digitally enabled 21st century
