In the ongoing efforts to enhance online resources and information, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago will soon kick-start two new programmes to continue to promote productivity among public servants, as well as encourage and engage participation of citizens. “Apart from the many other key initiatives to serve the people, citizens in rural areas of Trinidad and Tobago will soon be able access more government information and services though TTConnect express.

Trinidad & Tobago’s public healthcare system will go hi-tech by late next year with the launch of the E-Health Card. According to Health Minister Jerry Narace, the card would be made available to the public by the third of fourth quarter of next year and by 2012, every citizen should have the card. He said the project was listed at the top of the ministry’s agenda for next year. The electronic card, Narace noted, would make it easier for citizens to better access healthcare abroad and would also provide access to online medical records, appointment scheduling and local and international test records.

The card would also monitor the Chronic Disease Assistance Programme (CDAP), he said. “The project will start on a pilot basis in March and then it will be rolled out to the entire country by the third or fourth quarter of next year,” Narace said, during a telephone interview yesterday. “This is intended to be the first real major transformation tool in healthcare,” he added.
