An orientation on Electronic Referral (E-Referral) System was conducted by PHU–Southern Isabela Medical Center (SIMC) personnel to strengthen coordination and continuity of care between referring health facilities and the hospital. The activity was attended by MHO R. Somera III, Dr. Mary Dolle Aranda, MO III and RHU staff, demonstrating the municipality’s commitment to improving referral efficiency and patient management.
The orientation focused on familiarizing health personnel with the proper use of the e-referral platform, including standard referral protocols, documentation requirements, and timely submission of patient information. Emphasis was placed on the role of the system in ensuring efficient patient transfers, reducing delays in care, and enhancing coordination between primary healthcare facilities and higher level hospitals.
