PHL to be top Healthcare Outsourcing Country in 2012?

The AGSB Advantage

Mr. Alejandro Melchor of  ICTO (Information Communications Technology Office) announced that PHL will be the leading player in the healthcare outsourcing.  This follows after the Philippine surpassed India in voice call contact services.  I think this is a drumbeating on the part of the govt and speculative yet.

This is based on Pres Obamas initiative for affordable health care act and would be needing $530 billion to implement.  Aside from the medical transcription service (the current business) there will be disease management, pharma monitoring and management, clinical coding, and revenue cycle management.

This is one of 5 pt program of DOST for 20l2.

The BPO in the Phil will bring in up to $25B in revenues by 20l6, l.3 million in direct jobs, and 3.2 million in direct jobs according to BPAP (Business Process Association Philippines)  That is great news for Philppine job seekers;  bad news again for USA employees.
