More Effective and Integrated System(s)

A great share of the health care in Qatar is provided by two government entities, Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) and Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC).  Patients being treated by these organizations will soon enjoy the benefits of the integrated system that is being implemented jointly by the two organizations.  When Sidra opens, patients will also benefit from a similar high-quality solution that will be connected to the HMC/PHCC system.

The same advantages of an integrated system environment enjoyed by the public sector should be extended to the private sector. This will need to be provided by national level services that will enable Qatar to achieve the benefits of E-Health.

Once this information exchange is established, benefits and efficiencies in the health system can be realized. This will include a reduction in the number of laboratory tests (based on previous results already being available), lower drug prescribing / dispensing requirements (based on medications a patient already has in hand) and avoidance of duplicate radiology imaging (based on access to a national diagnostic imaging repository), to name a few examples.

Consolidating other key systems at a national level will also provide for additional gains in efficiency. It will also allow patients the ability to easily manage their own consent decisions using their Personal Health Account applications.​
