00:00The Department of Health has laid out various programs today in accordance with the mandate of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.
00:08The set of news is brought to you by Sue Jin Kim Live.
00:14Angelique, because the 3rd State of the Nation Address of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. is approaching,
00:20it is the Secretariat of Health and Welfare, Secretary Ted Herbosa, who is distributing the news
00:27and is continuing to do so by their government agency.
00:32In accordance with the mandate of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.,
00:35the Department of Health or DOH will continue to lay out programs for health and welfare.
00:41Our President, President BBM, really laid out for the welfare of our people.
00:46He gave me a lot of directives that we need to do for our people.
00:51DOH is working hard on three aspects,
00:54health promotion and prevention, urgent care, and women's health.
00:58DOH also assures that their services will reach the faraway provinces of the country.
01:05It is the President's order to bring services closer to the people.
01:09I am just following the mandate and instructions of President BBM.
01:15Through the new Urgent Care and Ambulatory Service Center or BUCAS Center,
01:20medical services will be brought to the poorest.
01:24BUCAS Centers will meet the ambulatory, medical, and surgical care needs of Filipinos.
01:30And the communities are directly there.
01:33So I put the services of the Department of Health in the community.
01:37Before, it stopped in the region.
01:39For now, DOH is also working on adding additional ambulatory services
01:44to expand the range of services to the future Filipinos.
01:48I will tell my regional hospital directors,
01:51can you go out to the hospital?
01:53Because patients are coming to you.
01:55Let's catch them in the community.
01:57That's where BUCAS Center was developed.
01:59BUCAS Centers are also a solution of DOH
02:02to decongest the emergency departments of our primary healthcare facilities.
02:09Meanwhile, Angelic, there's good news for Sected
02:12that she mentioned earlier, right here on PTV.
02:15Sected said that the Department of Budget and Management
02:21will give the remaining P27 billion unallocated funds.
02:25This is for the DOH's programs
02:28that are aimed at the rights of healthcare workers
02:31including housing and health benefits.
02:35Angelic, Sected also mentioned the change in the name of the Department of Health
02:40to become the Department of Health and Wellness.
02:42She also wanted to get the title of Chief Longevity Officer.
02:47That's the latest from Quezon City.
02:49Back to you, Angelic.
02:51Sujin, did Secretary Herbosa mention anything
02:54about the new Philippine mobile clinics?
02:59Yes, Angelic.
03:00Sected Herbosa said earlier
03:02that the number of mobile clinics has really increased
03:05especially to address the issue of health disparities in the country
03:09because it includes free and comprehensive medical services
03:13including consultations, lab testing, and medicine.
03:17Currently, the number of medical buses deployed in the country is at 83.
03:22Angelic.
03:23Okay.
03:24Did Secretary Herbosa mention anything
03:26about the problem in Dengue?
03:34Yes, Angelic.
03:35Especially during the rainy season,
03:37the cases of Dengue are also increasing.
03:39Secretary Ted Herbosa said that
03:41the solution is not necessarily a vaccine
03:43but a vector control.
03:45This means that the vector must be removed or killed.
03:48The vector is the mosquito.
03:50So the solutions that we can do
03:53to remove stagnant water sources
03:56and fumigation
03:58especially when there are clustering of cases in the community.
04:01Angelic.
04:02Okay. Thank you so much, Sujin Kim.
