ABSTRACT
Newborn screening (NBS) was introduced in the Philippines in 1996. After 12 years of implementation, a review of performance of the NBS facilities shows that there is a wide range of NBS performance from zero to 100%. This paper aims to review the NBS facilities (NSFs) that have at least 90% NBS coverage and to identify the successful strategies that have pushed the high coverage.
