20 7. Assessment of the Health System Major improvements in immunization coverage, TB DOTS, and childhood TB. Disparities in immunization rates and implementation of other programs persist between poor and well-to-do provinces Low utilization of government hospitals due to perceived low quality being addressed by facilities enhancement program Maldistribution of human resources for health
21 7. Assessment of the Health System High out-of-pocket expenditures are being addressed by expanded PhilHealth coverage and increased DOH budget Absence of integrated curative and preventive services network; being addressed by developmental primary care networks Lack of quality assurance mechanisms and low utilization of existing one (e.g. PhilHealth bench-book)
22 8. Conclusion Inequity persists as the Philippines main health problem Present DOH KP or Universal Health Care can provide the appropriate responses The KP thrusts should include measures to specifically address persistent defects in the health system building blocks, particularly: out of pocket expenses and quality of services
