Designing and using customized information systems to record patient information will be one of the key of public health organizations in monitoring and controlling hazardous diseases of public health. This system is generally referred to as registry systems and plays an important role in the systematic collection and optimal processing of specific disease data in specific geographical areas. Experience with recent epidemics of COVID-19-like diseases such as Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Mediterranean Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) has shown that the role of using information and monitoring systems and data management and information in managing the disease is highlighted. Establishing a dynamic, active, timely, real-time, complete, and accurate reporting system between stakeholders involved in the management and control of COVID-19 disease can reduce the burden of disease on society. In the meantime, it is vital to create a comprehensive, integrated and interactive system platform in which to provide a comprehensive and integrated view of information systems. The existence of this infrastructure makes our country more important as one of the countries where the prevalence of COVID-19 disease is high. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to design and implement the COVID -19 Disease Management Information System in Iran. In this study, we will try to take a step in the direction of collecting information fields required for disease reporting in the form of a minimum standard data set (MDS) and also developing custom web-based software (Web base) in the form of registry systems.
