ICAP at Columbia University, based at the Mailman School of Public Health, is a global health leader dedicated to improving the health of families and communities worldwide, particularly in resource-limited settings. Initially focused on comprehensive, family-focused HIV services, ICAP addresses major public health challenges including HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment, tuberculosis, malaria, non-communicable diseases, reproductive health, maternal and child health, COVID-19, and mpox. Through innovative research, collaborative technical assistance, capacity building, and the strengthening of health systems at all levels, ICAP delivers evidence-based programs and services such as HIV counseling and testing, prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission, comprehensive HIV care, antiretroviral therapy, and management for related conditions, aiming to provide quality, accessible healthcare and empower health professionals and communities.

Primary Electronic Health Record System
## Patient Portal Used by ICAP at Columbia University: A Look at the Systems in Place While Columbia University Irving Medical Center, in conjunction with NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine, utilizes the **Connect** patient portal, powered by the **Epic** electronic health record (EHR) system, the landscape for ICAP at Columbia University appears to be more complex due to its significant global health focus. ICAP (International Center for AIDS Care and Treatment Programs) is a global health leader based at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health. Its work primarily involves strengthening health systems and implementing large-scale public health programs in numerous countries around the world, focusing on diseases such as HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria. Given the international nature of ICAP's programs and their collaboration with local ministries of health and partners, the EHR and patient portal systems used can vary depending on the specific country and project. For instance, research indicates ICAP's involvement in implementing and utilizing different electronic medical record systems in various regions. One report highlights ICAP's support in implementing an Electronic Medical Record System in Ethiopia for ART service provision. Another publication mentions the use of OpenMRS, an open-source EHR platform often used in low- and middle-income countries, in the context of HIV surveys in Rwanda, with a link to ICAP. Therefore, unlike the unified system at the main Columbia University healthcare facilities, there is no single patient portal vendor or branding universally used across all of ICAP's global operations. The specific systems in place are likely tailored to the needs and infrastructure of the countries where ICAP implements its programs. While individuals receiving care directly within the Columbia University system in New York might use the Connect portal, patients or participants in ICAP's international public health programs would likely interact with different, locally determined health information systems and potentially associated patient access points.
