abstract: In the aim of need and necessity of stronger orientation and more efficient aim realization 35 Strategy SZO (health information system) country members should have the health information system able to provide information support to their National strategy "Health for All until 2005". Such a health information system should provide the information support for the planning process, monitoring and health evaluation, health care and work in public-health services sector. The experiences in the work of information system organization in Tuzla Canton Public Health Institute should be seen from two aspects: Aspect of the information system significance in the framework of the social-medical, epidemiological, hygiene-ecological and other activities of the Institute; Aspect of the information system development within the Public Health facilities of Canton in relation to the automatic data processing important for registration, tracking and recognition of success and population health care needs. From the aspect of establishing the information system in the area of Tuzla Canton and the Public Health Institute role, there is a need for adequate high technology technical equipment, with the task to enable practical realization of defined projects and in such a way, varied acceleration of work giving as a result usable information. The canton Public Health Institute needs as follows: necessary resources for free information system work; to provide free computer access to all; to ensure connection with other PHI through communications. In this way the canton Public Health Institute information system would be connected with other information systems in the field of health. In would be a base for development of integrated health information system. The information system is desirable aim for the work of Public Health Institute, method of selection and leading content of modernization. Analysing the Bill of Law on Health Care, a defectiveness has been noticed, since the information system is not regulated. Therefore, the need to be issued by Lay is of great importance. A statement that all projects on local information systems, started before war or during the war have been stooped, joins to the aforesaid, and also a series of independent information system in different health segments, which are not connected into one, unique information system. In any case, this disparaged the quality of medical decision making and therefore, providing of high-quality services at all levels of health work.
