openIMIS is the open source Insurance Management Information System, jointly funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) since 2012 (at that time as IMIS). OpenIMIS provides schemes and insurance plans for reimbursement of health care providers like hospitals, physicians and pharmacies. It supports the development of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and Universal Social Protection (USP) for the poor. openIMIS contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals: SDG 1 End poverty in all its forms everywhere, especially 1.3 Implement nationally appropriate social protection systems and measures for all, including floors, and by 2030 achieve substantial coverage of the poor and the vulnerable and SDG 3, target 3.8 Achieve universal health coverage, including financial risk protection, access to quality essential health-care services and access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all.
The Sector Programme Social Protection of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) works for the German Development Cooperation (GDC) under the commission of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). It manages the community around openIMIS. In 2018 OpenIMIS is used in Nepal, Tanzania and Cameroon.

Further development[edit]
Although openIMIS is licenced under the GNU AGPL, it still uses proprietary technology like Microsoft SQL server. It is planned to migrate the system to free software. In 2018 three tenders have been released by GIZ for this goal: for software maintenance, release management and 3rd level support, for capacity building and promotion and for modular transformation.[1]
