Abstract: This study examines the current state of death directories in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, spotting its shortcomings and suggesting improvements. The study looked into Saudi Arabia death data platform, assessed its accuracy, consistency, and timeliness, and surveyed the potential technological options alongside standardized frameworks. Using a mixed-method technique approach, it engaged key participants including healthcare practitioners, governmental institutions, and research establishments. The proposed strategies were compared to best practices from other countries that have effective death data management systems. Results exhibited that while Saudi Arabia has managed to have high completeness rates in death registration, problems surrounding data accuracy and timeliness persist. Lastly, a proposed framework embracing modern technologies, comprehensive training programs, and increased stakeholder collaboration were highlighted to augment death data handling. The execution of such a system could transform public health outcomes and strategies in Saudi Arabia.
