Senator BONG GO highlighted the importance of the Malasakit Centers and Regional Specialty Centers in the government’s healthcare strategy.

Malasakit Centers streamline medical assistance programmes for indigent patients, while Regional Specialty Centers provide specialised healthcare services in various regions, reducing the need for extensive travel.

Meanwhile, ground has been broken on another Super Health Center in Lian, Batangas to bring primary care, free consultation, and early disease detection closer to communities, enhancing accessibility to medical services.

Funds have been allocated for the construction of 307 centres in 2022 and 322 this year.
