Hi!
I’m writing this letter to your agency to help me with my thesis regarding how the Philippines can benchmark other neighboring countries like Taiwan to improve our own healthcare system. I’m still starting so there is no concrete study framework yet but basically here are the information I need, in which I am hoping I could get access to
1. Number of hospitals in the Philippines from 2012-2023
2. Number of known patients in the Philippines from 2012-2023
3. Number of physicians in the Philippines from 2012-2013
Thanks.
