Common Application Software (CAS) is a new mHealth intervention aimed at addressing time efficiency and quality of healthcare by CHWs. The objective of this study was to collect data on CHWs’ perspectives on CAS, changes in CHW-beneficiary interactions after CAS implementation, and challenges CHWs faced as a result of CAS. Although the beneficiaries’ views were mixed, the CHWs felt that CAS heightened their status in local communities.
