Malaffi is the health information exchange for the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, under the Department of Health (DoH). Healthcare providers in Abu Dhabi must connect their systems to it.
Through Malaffi, providers share and access a unified patient record — diagnoses, labs, medications, encounters — improving continuity of care. Integration uses standard HL7/FHIR interfaces from your HIS/EMR.
SBS integrates HIS, EMR and clinic platforms with Malaffi — mapping, DoH-compliant data exchange, testing and go-live — so Abu Dhabi providers meet the requirement reliably.
