This program improves the quality of life of the elderly and other priority populations in Argentina. With financing of US$ 30 million, the National Institute of Social Services for Retirees and Pensioners (PAMI INSSJP) is carrying out different actions to improve the management and care of its members. The objectives of this program are:

  • Improve access to health through infrastructure, equipment and medicines in the context of the COVID 19 health emergency.
  • Modernize health information systems and the implementation of the Electronic Health Record for monitoring the performance of health service providers and improving the health situation of patients.
  • Expand knowledge about the population under INSSJP's care and the impact on the change of the results-based management model.

Access to health care

Different infrastructure works are being carried out to complete the Bicentennial Ituzaingó Hospital, equipment acquisition for the Ituzaingó Hospital (Buenos Aires)

Houssay Hospital (Mar del Plata) and Hospital Policlínico PAMI II (Rosario)

It also finances the free dispensing of 40 of the active ingredients associated with respiratory pathologies included in the "Vademecum of Essential Medicines".

Electronic Health Record

Health personnel will be able to access the patient's medical history anywhere in the country. The Electronic Health Record (EHR) will contain the complete health information of each PAMI member regardless of the provider that generated it.

Working with vulnerable groups

The program will make it possible to identify population groups such as veterans of the Malvinas War and people aged 100 and over and their respective families in order to establish the interventions that best meet their particular needs.
