BDO Unibank, Inc. (BDO) has provided critical financial support to The Medical City (TMC), enabling the healthcare provider to extend its services to more communities across the Philippines. This funding has been instrumental in bolstering TMC’s operations, particularly during the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic brought a surge in patients, stretching healthcare facilities to their limits and reinforcing TMC’s dedication to expanding its services to meet diverse community healthcare needs.
With financial backing from BDO, TMC was able to expand its network, now operating four hospitals across various provinces in addition to its flagship hospital in Pasig City. This growth includes sixty stand-alone clinics throughout Metro Manila, Luzon, and Visayas, along with a hospital in Guam.
From serving 500,000 outpatients annually at its flagship hospital, TMC has significantly extended its reach. By the end of 2023, TMC has served about 2.3 million outpatients, reinforcing its mission to making healthcare accessible to Filipinos.
Looking forward, TMC plans to harness Artificial Intelligence (AI) to promote personalized healthcare, optimize its operations, and shift its focus from disease management to prevention. These initiatives aim to cement TMC’s position as a leading healthcare provider in the country.
“For over a decade, BDO has been a steadfast partner, understanding and supporting our needs. During the COVID-19 outbreak, BDO’s backing was vital in allowing TMC to continue serving those in need and supporting our dedicated staff. This partnership has enabled TMC to extend our brand of care to more patients and provide employment opportunities in the communities we serve,” said Dr. Eugene F. Ramos, TMC President and Group CEO.
BDO recognizes the critical role of healthcare in building resilient communities. In line with its vision for a sustainable future, BDO is committed to providing essential financing to key sectors, including healthcare, to improve the quality of life and well-being of Filipinos.
