ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER
No. 2019- D036
I. RATIONALE
As mandated by the Constitution under Section 15, Article II, “The State shall protect
and promote the right to health of the people and instill health consciousness among them.”’,
Section 11, Article XIII stipulates that the State shall also adopt an “integrated and
comprehensive approach to health development which shall endeavor to make essential
goods, health and other social services available to all the people at affordable cost”.
Also, the Republic Act No. 9502 otherwise known as the Universally Accessible
Cheaper and Quality Medicines Act of 2008, mandates the State to protect public health and,
when public interest or circumstances so requires, to adopt appropriate measures to promote
and ensure access to affordable quality drugs and medicines for all.
The Department of Health (DOH) established the Botika ng Barangay (BnB) program
in 2004, which was successful in improving the access to medicines of previously deprived
areas. However, there remains a lot of communities without supply of medicines. During the
implementation of the BnB, the lack of competent personnel to supervise the management of
medicines persisted, causing the sustainability, efficiency and effectiveness of the medicines
to stagnate. The DOH then issued a moratorium in January 2011 on the establishment of
additional BnBs until such time that the system problems were addressed. Department
Memorandum No. 2013-0053 dated February 18, 2013 entitled “Moratorium on the
Establishment of Botika ng Barangay and its variants” was issued to phase out the program
primarily due to several BnBs operating without the Special License to Operate (SLTO), and
also because of lack of rationality in the distribution and range of services that the BnBs
provided. All existing BnBs with SLTO were encouraged to upgrade their Pharmacy services
by securing a License to Operate (LTO) either as a regular pharmacy or a Retail Outlet foras
Non-Prescription Drug (RONPD).
To further improve the access to medicines while the BnB and BNB programs were in
a moratorium, the Department established the Medicines Access Program (MAPs), providing
free medicines to patients with breast cancer, childhood cancer, diabetes, hypertension and
