The Number of Contraceptive Prevalence

Requested from DOH by I. Ramos at 08:32 AM on Jun 01, 2021.
Purpose: College Thesis Paper
Date of Coverage: 01/30/2010 - 12/30/2020
Tracking no: #DOH-956918006214

Ramos 08:32 AM, Jun 01, 2021 

Dear Ma’am/Sir, 

I would like to request the monthly data records of the contraceptive prevalence rate in the Philippines from the year 2010 to 2020. I am ware that there is an annual rate posted under FHSIS from the DOH website. 

Is it possible for me to request the monthly data  instead of the annual data? (From 2010 to 2020) 

I will be using this data for my college thesis paper. 

Thank you so much.

Dear Ivy Ramos,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Jun 01, 2021 08:32:38 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for The Number of Contraceptive Prevalence.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested. The 2020 FHSIS Report is still on ongoing consolidation and validation hence, the DOH Epidemiology Bureau cannot release it yet. However, they do not have monthly data of the said indicator. 

We suggest that you direct this request to the Center for Health Development (contact details found at the DOH website: https://www.doh.gov.ph/regional-office-directory) which may be able to provide the specific data that she needs.

For further assistance you may review the FAQ section of the eFOI site: https://foi.gov.ph/help.

If you are unhappy with this response to your FOI request, you may ask us to carry out an internal review of the response by writing to Undersecretary Lilibeth C. David, Chair of Data Governance Oversight Committee/ DOH Central Appeals and Review Committee, at foi@doh.gov.ph. Your review request should explain why you are dissatisfied with this response, and should be made within 15 calendar days from the date when you received this letter. We will complete the review and tell you the result within 30 calendar days from the date when we receive your review request.

If you are not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the right to appeal to the Office of the President under Administrative Order No. 22 (s. 2011).

Thank you.
