Health Ministry Addresses 'Mor Prom' Data Errors Amid Over 7,000 Complaints
Thailand's Minister of Public Health, Phatthana Phomphat, has pledged to investigate reports of inaccurate medical records within the 'Mor Prom' application following over 7,000 public complaints.
On August 4, 2026, Thailand’s Minister of Public Health, Phatthana Phomphat, addressed concerns regarding the 'Mor Prom' health application during a press briefing at the Ministry of Public Health. The Minister acknowledged that over 7,000 individuals have reported discrepancies in their medical histories stored within the platform.
These inaccuracies have raised significant concerns among users regarding potential impacts on private health insurance claims and coverage eligibility. Minister Phatthana emphasized that the Ministry is committed to ensuring that citizens do not lose their rights due to these data errors and indicated that the government is prepared to take action against those responsible for the mismanagement of information.
For residents and long-term visitors relying on the 'Mor Prom' system for health documentation, these reports suggest a need for caution when verifying personal medical records. While the Ministry has promised to address the issue, it remains to be confirmed how the government will rectify existing data errors or whether they will issue official documentation to assist those currently facing insurance-related complications.
In the same meeting, the Minister also discussed the progress of the Community Nurse Volunteer project and preparations for flood and landslide emergency responses across 12 health districts, as reported by Khaosod Online.
