HOSPITAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (HIS) IN THE PHILIPPINES

The current state of health information systems closely reflects the larger health
system. The national and local health information systems are poorly integrated and are
weakly governed (Marcelo, 2005).

Private sector information is not part of the DOH systems which is partly due to the
weak information sharing regulations and preference for proprietary software.

Information System;  
b.NESSS or National Epidemic Sentinel Surveillance System;
c.EPISurv or Expanded Programme on Immunization diseases targeted for eradication or,
