The community health team is composed of the barangay health workers, community volunteers, barangay officials and health providers who will communicate directly with the poor families to ensure early identification of health problems of family members, effective access to accredited health providers and facilities, and timely utilization of needed health services to improve health outcomes. The CHTs are crucial to break the barriers limiting the access by the poorest households to quality health care and services.
