Peru healthcare infrastructure and service developments

Overview

Peru has initiated several projects to modernize and expand its healthcare capabilities. Construction has begun on the S/486 million modernization of the EsSalud Torre Trecca building in Lima, a project facilitated by a Public-Private Partnership that had been stalled for over 15 years. The project aims to provide structural reinforcement and specialized medical equipment to benefit approximately 1.4 million insured citizens.

Concurrently, the Ministry of Health has reported progress in digital and clinical services. These initiatives include the interconnection of 743,000 electronic medical records and the expansion of the National Telehealth Network to include 300 primary care facilities. The Ministry has also implemented a clinical pathway to combat anemia in children and pregnant women and deployed medical personnel and posts to respond to the El Niño phenomenon.
