Abstract: The Philippines has both private and health care facilities, and as far as better health is central to human happiness and well-being [12]. It also makes an important contribution to economic progress, as healthy populations live longer and happier, are more productive, and save more lives [5]. Amongst factors that influence health status and a country's ability to provide quality health services for its people [15]. The Manila City is one of the established cities in Metro Manila named as the capital of the Philippines. It is situated as the center of everything, with a total population of almost 13.9 million people, a good place for commercial and capital investments since Manila City is near to everything. With the advent of innovation, Philippines climbs in as readiness for technological change; they say that Southeast Asia, the Philippines is the fourth most tech-ready economy [3]. A sound digital ecosystem concept should be applied to preserve a decent approach to improving the health and wellness of each constituent in the City of Manila by ensuring that all Filipinos have access to suitable health care through functional service delivery networks. A crucial first step in ensuring that all Manilenos comprehend the advantages of good health and may refer to the city as "Healthy Manila City" is to involve both the public and private sectors in the city.
