The general objective of this non-reimbursable technical cooperation is to accelerate the digital transformation of the health sector in Central America through the implementation of the Pan-American Digital Health Roadmap (PH4H)—prioritizing use cases defined by the countries in the region themselves—and to provide operational support for loan operations BL-L1048, DR-L1167, ES-L1160, PN-L1195, and HO-L1239. Its specific objectives are: (i) to support countries in the technical and regulatory implementation of priority interoperable digital health use cases—with an emphasis on vaccination certificates and electronic prescriptions—in coordination with SE-COMISCA, national regulatory frameworks, and the digital health components of the aforementioned operations; and (ii) to strengthen the technical capacities of national teams and foster regional and intersectoral collaboration through "Connectathons" and sub-regional training events, ensuring that the public goods and lessons learned inform and accelerate the execution of the aforementioned loans.
