HIV and AIDS Registry of the Philippines

Published by Department of Health(DOH) on Feb. 4, 2025.
Requested from DOH by B. Hidalgo at 08:11 PM on Feb. 4, 2025.
Purpose: Health Equity Research Project
Tracking no: #DOH-251688283797

B.HIDALGO Feb. 4, 2025, 8:11 p.m.

Good day, My name is Bianca Ysabel Hidalgo, filing a request on behalf of EpiMetrics Inc, a public health research firm specializing in mixed methods research with the vision of health equity. We are conducting a project called Bridging the Gap: Defining and Measuring Health Inequity in the Context of the UHC Law which aims to develop a health equity index specific to the UHC context through a mixed-methods approach. Our main output will be a dashboard that will allow national and local-level government offices to track and visualize health outcomes across different population groups. In simpler terms, the dashboard will show how health indicators (such as mortality rates, service utilization, etc.) differ across important sub-groups or sub-populations. These groups will be based on factors like location (subnational), age, sex, wealth (e.g., income levels), and more. Likewise, we need data on both health outcomes and dimensions of equity (i.e., sociodemographic data). We would like to request the entire raw and anonymized dataset of the HIV and AIDS Registry of the Philippines covering the past 10 years (1 January 2014 - 31 December 2024) at the highest level of spatial and temporal resolution available (e.g., barangay, daily- or weekly-level data). As we request the entire dataset, we are requesting all of the fields and rows applicable to that dataset. We accept any file format of the dataset, but preferably in Excel (.xlsx) or CSV (.csv). We would also like to request the metadata documentation for these, indicating the data dictionary, data collection methods used, and templates of data collection forms submitted by the relevant reporting facilities, if available. Thank you!
