Dear Apayo, Jemely A.,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Sep 07, 2023 02:38:11 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for ADHD Facility.

Response to your request

 Unfortunately, we do not have the prevalence rate of the aforementioned conditions in the Philippines (hospital data is not yet consolidated and we are yet to establish the mental health information that should also include developmental conditions including ADHD). However, according to the ADHD Society of the Philippines, it is estimated that about 3 to 5 percent of the population aged 0-14 years have ADHD. You may also try to source data from the regional offices through this directory : https://doh.gov.ph/regional-office-directory. 

   You may also contact the psychiatric facilities provided for specific data sets on these conditions.

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