The implementation framework includes establishing data processing centers, and providing change management support, healthcare solutions and other cutting-edge services to operate the national health system in Bahrain
Through the I-SEHA programme, the Ministry of Health aims to improve the quality and increase the efficiency and speed of services for patients.
