This document discusses the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs) in primary care settings in the Philippines. It identifies several key issues that can arise, including challenges related to human resources, such as resistance to change or lack of computer literacy among staff. Infrastructure is also an issue, as facilities may lack adequate computers, internet access, or compatibility between different EHR systems. Security, privacy and data accuracy are additional concerns. Financial costs associated with equipment, software, training and additional personnel are also barriers. The document provides recommendations for addressing these challenges, such as assessing staff readiness, providing training, and taking an interdisciplinary approach to the implementation process.
