Hello Ko Phyo! Thanks much for your discussion.
In Myanmar, we have one program called Health Information Technology (HIT) which is a bachelor program at the University of Medical Technology (MDY/YGN). As far as I am aware, this initiative was launched four or five years ago, working with MOHS, UMT and Melbourne University to support the academic curriculum at the time. I think this may become a valuable workforce for the health information system in the country primarily under MOH for both public and private sectors. This is not well-known, and not many people are aware of it. I’m not sure if there are any graduates of the program in the meantime, and who went on to contribute to the workforce following the coup with the CDM.
