Balisacan. The gathering convened national government agencies and partner institutions to align strategies for advancing key programs on human development in the country.

During the session, 𝗨𝗣-𝗡𝗧𝗛𝗖 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗼 𝗠. 𝗢𝗻𝗴𝗸𝗲𝗸𝗼 𝗝𝗿. presented the Center’s study, “𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 (𝗨𝗛𝗖) 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀,” which examines how the country’s major HIS platforms are being implemented in support of the UHC Law and DOH guidelines. The study looks into how systems such as DOH’s iClinicSys and iHOMIS, and PhilHealth’s eClaims submission system, manage data from health facilities. It also reviews how these platforms connect with each other and with national registries, while identifying best practices and recommending ways to strengthen interoperability, sustainability, and integration with telehealth and telemedicine.

Through this initiative, UP-NTHC contributes to strengthening the country’s digital health ecosystem—supporting more efficient healthcare delivery, better access to services, and the long-term goals of Universal Health Care.
