Summary, etc. "To guarantee equitable, sustainable and quality health for all Filipinos, especially the poor, and to lead the quest for excellence in health." This part of the mission of the Philippines' Department of Health Central Office as stated last September 2016 by the Secretary of Health Paulyn Jean B. Rosell-Ubial. It is the goal of the department to ensure the delivery of quality health care to each Filipino, giving importance to those living below the poverty line. These include citizens who do not have financial resources to obtain proper and even basic health care as well as those living in hard to reach places and/or geographically-isolated and disadvantaged areas. One of these areas is Marinduque, a third class island province, with a projected population of 254, 126 in the year 2016. A community-based monitoring system (CBMS) report in 2008 mentions that 48% of this population are living below the poverty line. In order to get to this province, a person needs to board a roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) boat, which can reach the destination in about three to four hours. This means that during typhoons or rough seas, the people in this province have limited access to mainland Luzon as well as hospitals and healthcare facilities that provide specialized (or tertiary-level) services. In Marinduque, a province of six municipalities, only three public hospitals and eight rural health units are operational. Patients are either underdiagnosed or undertreated or both due to the lack of health care professionals who specialize in different areas of medicine. It is also in this province where the 1996 Marcopper mining disaster took place, leaving lifelong, detrimental effects not only to the environment, but also to the health of the people. The Re-entry Project titled " Expanding the Health Care Delivery System Thru Telemedicine and Establishing a Toxico Disease Surveillance System in the Province of Marinduque" aims to target the aforementioned concerns. The main goal is developing an existing program while establishing a new one that ensures that the projects address the specific needs of the citizens of Marinduque. This ReP is one that is beneficial to the citizens of the province because it addresses two major concerns: the limited access to tertiary level health care services and the effects of the mining disaster events that took place in the years 1993 and 1996. To address the first major concerns, this ReP focuses on partnering with hospitals in mainland Luzon that could cater to patients who are in need of tertiary level health care services, utilizing information and communication technology that is available in this day and age. This ReP recognizes the offsite health care services made possible by developments in technology. Even in different locations, health care providers are able to connect with one another in order to give better quality service. Since there is already an existing Telemedicine service in the province, expanding it allows the health system to be more responsive; thus, making it available, accessible and affordable to more patients with specialized health care needs. For the second major concern, a database has been established in order to act as a repository of information of patients who experienced heavy metal poisoning secondary to exposure to mine tailings. This database will monitor the data and become one of the bases of the plan of action for the health care need of the citizens. Overall, this ReP aims to utilize advancements in technology in order to ease the burden of the citizens in obtaining quality health care that every Filipino has the right to receive. The scholar puts into action various key focus areas that lead to the expansion of the Telemedicine Services as well as the establishment of a Toxico Disease Surveillance System. These key focus areas are policy advocacy, strategic partnership, capacity building, media advocacy, and strategic research, monitoring, and evaluation. All these go hand-in-hand in order to successfully implement the Re-Entry Project. Together with the efforts of our partners, the road that leads to an improved quality of life for the Marinduquenos is now taking shape.
