Abstract-The PhilHealth Konsulta program aims to improve healthcare access and affordability in the Philippines by offering full primary care services such as consultations, diagnostic testing, and prescriptions. This study looks at the quality and availability of diagnostic examinations provided by accredited PhilHealth Konsulta providers in Baguio City. A quantitative research approach was used, with a survey disseminated to staff and outpatients from various PhilHealth Konsulta facilities in Baguio City. The study used a Likert scale to assess satisfaction levels in 10 areas of service quality and diagnostic availability, ranging from 1 (least satisfied) to 5 (very highly satisfied). A total of 117 people responded, including 48 personnel and 69 outpatients. Findings indicate generally high satisfaction levels among both healthcare providers and patients regarding consultation services, queue management, and patient instructions within the PhilHealth Konsulta framework. However, moderate satisfaction was noted regarding the availability of medications and diagnostic tests, highlighting potential areas for enhancement in inventory management and diagnostic infrastructure. Disparities between staff and patient perceptions suggest a need for improved communication and alignment in service delivery expectations. While the PhilHealth Konsulta program in Baguio City typically satisfies the demands of patients with moderate to high satisfaction, there are several crucial areas that need to be addressed to increase service quality and diagnostic availability. The study emphasizes the importance of increasing diagnostic test availability through enhanced equipment procurement and supply chain management. Strengthening healthcare manpower by recruiting additional staff and implementing training programs to optimize service delivery efficiency is also advised. Furthermore, leveraging technology to streamline administrative processes and improve patient management systems can enhance overall patient experience and operational effectiveness. This research contributes valuable insights to policymakers, healthcare managers, and practitioners involved in optimizing primary healthcare delivery under the PhilHealth Konsulta program. By addressing identified gaps and leveraging strengths, this study aims to support efforts towards achieving equitable healthcare access and improving health outcomes for residents of Baguio City and similar settings across the Philippines.

Abstract-The recognition of food on social media has spawned an growing interest in automated food recognition and recipe era. We gift a system that combines both neighborhood and global functions to create spatiotemporal convnet, this paper outlines the venture of creating particular but special recipes from snap shots of food. on this paper, we use convolutional neural networks and a generative antagonistic community to robotically convert meals photographs into textual content based totally recipes. To generate coherent and contextually relevant recipe instructions, our approach combines image popularity techniques based totally on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) [17] for the identity and category of food with herbal Language Processing (NLP)—fashions utilized in conjunction to analyze textual data. extra records: The authors present a large-scale dataset with various meals categories and corresponding recipe (i.e., cooking method) for schooling their proposed framework. at the photograph- to-recipe mission, our experiments set up that it is able to certainly generate a recipe carefully matching with food objects in snap shots. Quantitative assessment benchmarks on preferred datasets display superiority as compared to baseline models and qualitative evaluation verifies that our architecture can produce human-like recipe commands. these consequences assist our approach as a benchmark for more state-of-the-art packages closer to automated culinary content creation by way of offering users with more food-related experience in digital interfaces.
