The Department of Health in Davao Region , Southern Philippines Medical Center , and the private-owned Brokenshire Medical Center signed a memorandum of agreement on Wednesday to expand the Medical Assistance to Indigent Patients program to private hospitals.
In an interview, BMC chief executive officer Ronald Manuel Santos said they are committed to the efforts of the government in helping low-income patients. The target patients include those with catastrophic illnesses that require prolonged hospitalization, and extremely expensive therapies or other special but essential care that would deplete one’s financial resources.Dr. Ricardo Audan, SPMC chief, described the burden of health care expenses as “very overwhelming, with families and individuals struggling to get the best possible health care available.
Meanwhile, Dr. Annabel Yumang, DOH-11 regional director, said MAIP would directly help needy patients as they partnered with more hospitals to decongest SPMC.
