Location
UCSF is leading an impact, process, tech and economic evaluation of the Common Applicaton System (CAS) mhealth intervention. The CAS application is a mobile technology designed for Anganwadi workers (AWW), community health workers in India, to improve their identification, follow up, and referral of at-risk children and mothers. UCSF is leading the effort to evaluate the introduction of this strategy across two Indian states. The findings from this comprehensive evaluation will provide critical information to stakeholders including the national Ministry of Health, individual state ministries of health, and technology partners and will drive continued enhancements and improvements to the technology.
