The "bottlenecks" that need to be addressed.

In recent times, the health sector in Ca Mau province has seen many positive changes. The healthcare network from the provincial level to the grassroots continues to be strengthened; many advanced techniques such as cardiovascular intervention, stroke treatment, and cancer radiotherapy have been implemented, helping people access high-quality healthcare services right in their locality.

Alongside this, digital transformation is being gradually accelerated. Currently, 100% of hospitals and medical centers with inpatient beds have implemented electronic medical records and connected to health insurance payment systems, contributing to transparency in procedures and shortening the time for medical examinations and treatment.

The team of doctors performed a complex surgery, demonstrating the increasingly advanced professional capabilities of the local healthcare sector.

However, the reality also presents many difficulties. The quality of medical examination and treatment is uneven across different levels; primary healthcare has not fully played its role; infrastructure in many places is dilapidated, and equipment is not standardized. Overcrowding at some higher-level hospitals still occurs, while people do not yet fully trust lower-level healthcare.

Furthermore, medical data is fragmented and lacks interconnectedness. The transfer and implementation of technical procedures from higher-level to lower-level facilities is limited, especially in specialized fields such as pediatric orthopedics, female pelvic floor treatment, pathology, and ENT. Many approved techniques cannot yet be implemented.

Healthcare workers perform diagnostic ultrasounds for patients, contributing to improving the quality of medical examination and treatment at the grassroots level.
