E- Health
Traditional administration of health services has proven to be inefficient and less
responsive to the needs of its diverse stakeholders. The Ebola Virus Disease that
claimed the lives of thousands of our citizens exposed the inadequacy in our health
system and the vulnerabilities to which health workers are exposed to under such a
system. To address this challenge, Government of Liberia will design and adopt a
comprehensive Health Information System to facilitate effective administration and
clinical practices, using integrated ICT platforms.
A robust health-focused research institutions to enable healthcare workers to
undergo periodic refresher programs to enable them to conform to medical ethics and
remain abreast with contemporary practice will be established by the Ministry of
Health.
