What it is

For an Integrated Counselling and Testing Centre and the maternity unit beside it. Each counselling and testing visit is recorded against the ICTC’s own client ID — the patient record is linked only when the client agrees — with the sex and age as recorded, whether she is pregnant and where (antenatal, in labour, after delivery), whether the client is a TB patient, pre-test counselling, and the test done or why not. The result is the laboratory’s, written once; post-test counselling is recorded once; a reactive client is linked to an ART centre with its registration number, and the days without linkage are counted until then. A baby born to a mother with a reactive result is followed through prophylaxis and early infant diagnosis, its result written once. Each month NACO’s numbers are counted — clients counselled, tested and reactive, HIV–TB, pregnant women tested and reactive, ART linkage, exposed infants and EID — filed by hand and the acknowledgement recorded. Confidential under the HIV and AIDS (Prevention and Control) Act 2017: nothing about a client is sent to a phone.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not run the test or the counselling — a trained counsellor and the laboratory do.

It does not talk to NACO’s reporting system: the numbers are keyed in by hand.

It never puts a client’s status in a message.

Questions clinics ask

What does NACOBridge do?

Send ICTC and PPTCT numbers to NACO’s own system on the schedule it expects. For an Integrated Counselling and Testing Centre and the maternity unit beside it. Each counselling and testing visit is recorded against the ICTC’s own client ID — the patient record is linked only when the client agrees — with the sex and age as recorded, whether she is pregnant and where (antenatal, in labour, after delivery), whether the client is a TB patient, pre-test counselling, and the test done or why not. The result is the laboratory’s, written once; post-test counselling is recorded once; a reactive client is linked to an ART centre with its registration number, and the days without linkage are counted until then.

Confidential under the HIV and AIDS (Prevention and Control) Act 2017: nothing about a client is sent to a phone.

What data does NACOBridge read and write?

NACOBridge reads the patient record, when the client agrees to the link and writes counselling and testing visits by PID, results, post-test counselling and ART linkage, exposed infants’ prophylaxis and EID, the monthly report and its acknowledgement. Its data class is Full PHI. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does NACOBridge deliberately not do?

It does not run the test or the counselling — a trained counsellor and the laboratory do. It does not talk to NACO’s reporting system: the numbers are keyed in by hand. It never puts a client’s status in a message.

What happens to our data if we uninstall NACOBridge?

The register, the infants and the reports leave with the app. The patient record keeps everything else.

Is NACOBridge available today?

Yes — NACOBridge is live in clinics today. Set up your practice on MedAppz and install it from your dashboard.

Where is NACOBridge offered?

NACOBridge is offered in India only: it is built on that market's own systems and rules.
