In his opening remarks, Dr. Kenneth Hartigan- Go shares the three objectives of the DOH as increase the healthcare spending, rationalize procurement of healthcare equipment, services, products and facilities and regulatory alignment. According to Dr. Hartigan- Go, it is very important to hear and listen to the concerns of the industry.

Together with DoH Undersecretary (and former FDA Director General) Kenneth Hartigan- Go, they announced that in order to facilitate the private sector, products that were deemed to be minimal hazard and risk to the public would no longer need to comply with FDA requirements such as license to operate, product registration or notification, and full ingredient disclosure.
