The problems facing the Philippine Health


Care basically boils down to 2 problems,
Affordability and Accessibility to Health Care.
The Government and the Private sector
should work together to solve this problem.
We have a long way to go in solving our
health problems because it is affected by
problems in our economy. We should have
policies that would cater to both because I
believe that if we have a Healthy Economy,
we will also have Healthy People.
