After the Dominican Republic joined
SICA in 2013, more
photographs of the organization's flags started showing up online.
Among them, the flag of COMISCA, a subordinate agency of
SICA.
According to the COMISCA website,
(translated by
Google), COMISCA is the Council of Health Ministers (Consejo de
Ministros de Salud de Centroamerica y República Dominicana) under
SICA. With a headquarters and presidency that rotates among its
members, COMISCA "aims to identify and prioritize regional health problems."

There are several photographs online of the COMISCA flag; one of the best is
this image. The flag
features the COMISCA logo centered on a white field. The logo has the
organization's acronym in dark blue capital letters. To the right of the
acronym is a design consisting of six colored diamond shapes forming a
rough arrowhead pointing to the right. The full name of the organization
appears in smaller letters beneath the acronym.

COMISCA also had a previous logo, and flag. It was also a white flag but with
a different type-faced abbreviation where letter I was fomed by a snake and rod
of Aesculapius, symbol of medicine. The full name of the organization is written
with green letters.
