Turkish Ministry of Health: national health data on one platform

SİNA (Sağlıkta İstatistik ve Nedensel Analizler) runs on TURBOARD and puts live national health data in front of 500,000+ registered users, from nurses to the Minister.

500K+registered users
300K+active users
10K+concurrent users
Thousandsof live dashboards
Objective

One view of national health service delivery

What was missing was one platform where every decision-maker could follow the whole picture instantly. SİNA was created to close that gap.

Situation

A health system that runs around the clock

At the Turkish Ministry of Health, a workforce of more than 1.4 million health workers serves 1,500+ hospitals and tens of thousands of clinics and family medicine centers, around the clock. Care can’t pause, diagnoses must be right and timely, and every process has to stay within a sound financial framework.

After seven earlier platforms, the Ministry chose TURBOARD as its eighth and final Business Intelligence platform. It has remained the Ministry’s BI platform ever since.

Impact

What Ministry teams and health professionals can do with SİNA

With SİNA on TURBOARD, Ministry teams and health professionals are able to:

  • Bring national-scale data before their eyes instantly, from the Minister to the ward
  • Follow digital records live through reports tailored to each user’s role
  • Benchmark their practice against colleagues, institutions and national averages
  • Act early on smart alerts, rational drug use analysis and live regional trends
  • Support decisions with AI-assisted analysis and one trusted view of health service delivery
  • Stay connected anywhere through the SİNA web platform and mobile app

Benchmarking clinical practice

Doctors see their own prescriptions, tests and procedures and compare them with colleagues at institution, province and country level. Within months of launch, 22,000+ physicians began actively using SİNA, and the Ministry saw lower cesarean rates, fewer prescriptions and fewer drugs per prescription among them.

Smarter prescribing

Smart alerts and rational drug use analysis support better decisions and deliver savings in some areas.

Live COVID-19 monitoring

From the first case, SİNA put case profiles, epidemic progression and contact-tracing data in front of Ministry leadership and provincial administrators as it happened. Predictive views anticipated emergency crowding and regional trends, and showed how vaccination was changing the picture.

Evidence at national scale

Ministry researchers drew on integrated e-Nabız and SİNA data to analyze 37.7 million patient satisfaction scores covering 207,000+ physicians between 2016 and 2023, as published in North Clin Istanb.

Presenting SİNA at TEKNOFEST, the Deputy Minister of Health explained that it gives every doctor a mirror for their own practice, with live comparisons against colleagues.

Resolution

How SİNA runs on TURBOARD

SİNA is built entirely on TURBOARD interfaces, with easy-to-use features for all ministerial staff. Today it carries thousands of live dashboards.

200+ TBof data flowing in, about 3 TB of it structured analytical data

One platform for every Ministry data stream

Data from Ministry applications such as e-NABIZ, MHRS, e-RAPOR, TeleTıp, ASOS and MELİS flows into an open-source Big Data ecosystem. TURBOARD turns it into live dashboards for every user.

Built for volume, variety and speed

Health facilities send 100+ types of standardized data packages, streaming at thousands of packages per second. Of the 200+ TB flowing in, about 3 TB is structured analytical data, with no sensor or multimedia content.

A distributed installation across multiple machines delivers the reliability, performance and scalability a national platform demands.

“The crown of all digital applications.”
