Abstract
This paper describes an additional enhanced authentication method for Mobile Health Data Collection Systems (MHDCS) compared to the commonly existing method of using usernames and passwords for field data collectors. The mechanism introduced in this study was developed to overcome the authentication security challenges faced during the collection of electronic primary health data through MHDCS by adding location and time as additional features of user authentication.
