Health Ministry Investigates Data Discrepancies in 'Mor Prom' System
Thailand's Ministry of Public Health is addressing thousands of reports regarding inaccurate health records within the 'Mor Prom' digital platform.
On August 26, 2026, Thailand’s Minister of Public Health, Phatthana Phromphat, addressed concerns regarding the 'Mor Prom' digital health system during the Digital Health Forum 2026 at Impact Forum, Muang Thong Thani. The Ministry is currently investigating over 10,000 reports filed by approximately 9,000 citizens who identified discrepancies or potentially false information in their personal health records.
According to Khaosod Online, the Minister attributed many of these issues to the use of complex medical terminology. For instance, routine screenings—such as stool tests—are often recorded using technical medical codes for cancer screening. When patients view these records, the terminology can lead to confusion or unnecessary alarm regarding their health status. The Ministry is now working to refine the language used in the system to ensure better clarity for the public.
For residents and long-term visitors, this situation highlights the importance of reviewing personal digital health records. While the Ministry is actively auditing the system, it remains to be confirmed how quickly these data corrections will be implemented. Minister Phromphat emphasized that the government is committed to resolving these errors and will investigate further if any intentional misconduct is discovered. Users are encouraged to monitor their accounts and report any persistent inaccuracies to the relevant health authorities.
