Patuloy na inilalapit ng Marcos administration sa mga Pilipino, ang access sa dekalidad at abot-kayang serbisyong medikal.
“We will do our best to lift the burdens from our people’s shoulders and give them opportunities to live healthier and more secure lives.” — Pangulong Marcos.
Patunay dito, ang pagkakumpleto ng unang phase ng Clark Multi-Specialty Medical Center. Isang state-of-the-art pediatric facility na layong magbigay ng libre, high-quality medical care para sa mga bata at pamilya mula sa Region I, II, III, maging sa mga karatig na lugar.
Ang DOH-JBL Children’s Medical Center ay magsisimula nang tumanggap ng pasyente sa Agosto.
“Here in this hospital, I am happy to announce that the Zero Balance Billing program will certainly continue. And that way, no individual will be denied care simply because they do not have the capacity to pay. The Zero Balance Billing is also complemented by the Medical Assistance to Indigent and Financially Incapacitated Patients Program and the Yaman ng Kalusugan Program, which have served millions of Filipinos in need of medical assistance.” —Pangulong Marcos.
Ayon sa Pangulo, simula pa lamang ito, lalo’t mas maraming modern facilities ang mabubuksan sa complex, na kabibilangan ng mga pasilidad na partikular na tututok sa Renal, Cardiovascular, at Cancer care.
“This is only the beginning. After this Medical Center, more modern facilities will rise within the Clark Multi-Specialty Medical Center complex. And of course, we are working to bring down out-of-pocket expenses through our program the Zero Balance Billing. One by one, we are building a better healthcare system that serves every Filipino with dignity.” — Pangulong Marcos.
