Patient Information Center (Mopotsyo)

MoPoTsyo Patient Information Centre is a registered Cambodian NGO helping patients with diabetes and/or hypertension learn how to self-manage their chronic disease and prevent complications through Peer Educator Networks in 8 provinces and 21 operational districts. Peer Educators are diabetes patients who have been trained in disease-self-management and who share their skills with other patients in their communities. These networks serve around 20,000 active patients who use the medical services. Most of these services are organized inside the public service facilities. MoPoTsyo works closely with the Ministry of Health. MoPoTsyo’s laboratory services are an important component of the chronic care system, together with medical consultations, the revolving drug fund and follow-up. We cooperate with other not-for-profit partners, such MSF France for Hepatitis C screening and academic institutions for research.
