The country boasts a high adult literacy rate of 96.5% and is undergoing a transition from an agrarian economy to one centered around services and manufacturing, with a strong GDP growth of 6.7% in 2017. Life expectancy in the Philippines has risen from 62.2 years in 1980 to 69.1 years in 2016, primarily due to improved living conditions, although it faces health challenges like pneumonia, tuberculosis, heart diseases, Figure 3.

ORGANIZATION OF THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM Characterized as a dual health system (public sector and private sector) Private sector mainly active in hospital care and maternities Government caters for primary care and first-line facilities Health facilities are regulated by DOH - Health Facilities & Services Regulatory Bureau (HFSRB) Figure 5.

Figure 7. Organization of the Health Care System Figure 9. Public Health Care System In a government sector, several national government agencies and LGUs are responsible for ensuring that health policies are implemented and health services and programs are delivered to the population Figure 8. Number of Health Facilities by Type DOH acts as the national lead agency in health, which consists of 18 bureaus and services responsible for policy development, Barangay Health Station, Rural Health Unit, program planning, standard setting and and City Health Office are exclusively public regulation, and related management support Most hospitals are private (67%) services The DOH structure reflects major organizational changes brought about by Public Health Care System strategic reviews, rationalization of government agencies and functions.
