Abstract
Background: Health surveillance is an important element of disease prevention, control, and management. During
the past two decades, there have been several initiatives to integrate health surveillance systems using various
mechanisms ranging from the integration of data sources to changing organizational structures and responses. The
need for integration is caused by an increasing demand for joint data collection, use and preparedness for
emerging infectious diseases.
