Maxicare Healthcare Corp. said it established primary care clinics to provide quality healthcare services to Filipinos, with locations that were carefully studied to give members the convenience and ease of access.
They are located near hospitals, residential areas, and commercial centers.
Maxicare said it removed the cumbersome process of booking an appointment and presenting a letter of appointment (LOA) before members can avail of consultations or medical tests at accredited clinics and hospitals.
“Members can go to any PCC and complete consultations or lab tests within half an hour without LOA. With an average waiting time of about six minutes, the short wait is made more convenient, with free beverages, WiFi access and charging stations for devices,” the company said.
The PCCs practice completely paperless queueing and health record management systems. Consultation summaries and lab test results are stored on a secure online location that members may access anytime by logging in, it said.
“We know that getting medical services can eat up a lot of time, which is a valuable resource. Health concerns are already stressful, we want to ease some of that stress by giving quality healthcare and customer service,” said Maxicare president and chief executive Sean Argos.
“Maxicare established the primary care clinics to provide Filipinos with convenient and affordable ways to access top-notch medical services. We want to ensure that our fellow Filipinos are always in the best of health and living their best lives. Whenever they need to see a doctor or get a lab test, they only need to go to our clinics to get prompt service in a professional yet relaxed environment,” he said.
The Maxicare PCCs are equipped with the latest diagnostic and laboratory test equipment and have consultation rooms for families, an ENT room, an extraction room for blood tests, a vital signs station with a BMI machine, a radiology station with an x-ray machine and a heart station with an ECG machine.
