Meetings were held recently at the Ministry of Health involving representatives of the technical company working for Etisalt and the directors of departments in the ministry to discuss the switch to e-systems. Officials in the technical company were briefed on the existing electronic systems in the departments of Special Professions, Pharmacy, Quality and Applications Systems related to registration, licensing, reporting and monitoring of epidemic diseases.
The company would, in the near future, conduct field tours of hospitals and health centres and departments of preventive medicine to acquaint itself with the existing electronic systems so as to use the information to bridge any gaps in the requirements of the eGovernment, according to Dr Saeed Abdullah, Director of Quality Management in the Ministry.
