The OPDBS project is part of the first component of the Kosovo Health Project (KHP) aimed at strengthening the capacity of the Ministry of  Health (MoH) and the Health Insurance Fund (HIF) to implement mandatory health insurance and to improve the quality and efficiency of health services, as part of the reform of the mandatory health insurance in Kosovo.
The main objectives of the project Outsourcing Outpatient Drug Benefit Scheme is to provide the MoH and HIF with the technical assistance to efficiently establish, sustain and implement the Kosovo outpatient drug benefit scheme, in order to ensure access to quality and affordable medicines to the entire population of Kosovo and thus decrease the out-of-pocket spending related to the purchase of medicines in the country.

Under this contract, the Ministry plans to computerise part of this system, mainly concerning the electronic medical file (EMF). Once it has been introduced, the EMF, as well as being a source of strategic, privileged information for the decision-making and health information system, will be used as an operational tool with advanced features, designed to improve the quality of care and operational management of hospital services. It should contribute to improving management tools by making information accessible to health managers and professionals, at operational as much as strategic level.
