Support the preparation and execution of the Smart and Comprehensive Health Program

IDB technical cooperation aimed at supporting the preparation of the Smart and Comprehensive Health Program with the objective to improve the population's health by strengthening hospital infrastructure and equipment, digital health services, increasing emergency services coverage and improving operational efficiency of the public health system. The project addresses the vulnerability of the Salvadoran health system to climate change and natural disasters, where 30% of hospitals are over 50 years old and 22% of primary care centers need reconstruction. It includes developing a resilience investment portfolio, conceptual design of Medical Emergency System bases, and consolidation of digital health services including a minimum viable product for prediabetes prevention. The program promotes centralization of support services such as laboratories, blood banks and hospital laundries to reduce operational costs by 20-40%.
