Web-based system for hospitals launched

"The technology and information that goes with this solution is the same package we offer to other industries," said Ronnie Latinazo, country manager of EMC Philippines. "This (healthcare) is an emerging market for us and, thus, it is an opportunity that we are looking into right now."

To promote the system, Co embarked on a nationwide medical information campaign that kicked off in Cebu and went to Cagayan De Oro, Metro Manila, and Pampanga. Co adds that as of this date, doctors, health practitioners, medical students and those who are looking for an electronic hospital system have already expressed their interest to be one of the early adopters of eHRMS in the country.
