Which is a priority program of the Department of Health promoting availability of quality services in health centers and hospitals?

• A. Health Sector Reform Agenda
• B. Health Passport Initiative
• C. Sentrong Sigla
• D. National Health Objectives

Answer: (C)

The program focused on ensuring quality services at health facilities is Sentrong Sigla. This DOH initiative is specifically about strengthening health centers and hospitals by promoting standardized, high-quality care and recognizing facilities that meet set standards. It involves aspects like appropriate infrastructure, equipment, medicines, staffing, infection prevention, and governance, so facilities labeled as Sentrong Sigla signal to the public that they can deliver reliable services.

The other options describe broader reform efforts or different initiatives that aren’t aimed at certifying and elevating the quality of care at the facility level. Therefore, Sentrong Sigla best fits the description.
