HEALTH Secretary Teodoro J. Herbosa on Friday led the inauguration of the Imus Super Health Center in Imus City, Cavite.
Assistant Secretary Ariel Valencia, Cavite City Mayor Alex Advincula, and Imus City Vice Mayor Homer Saquilayan joined the event held in Carsadang Bago 1 in Imus City.
The two-storey super health center offers different health services like x-ray, animal bite clinic, TB DOTS, dental, laboratory, pharmacy, immunization, family planning, and reproductive and wellness services.
The Imus Super Health Center is aligned with the Department of Health’s commitment to providing urgent care centers nationwide towards the realization of Universal Health Care (UHC).
According to Herbosa, the DOH is working on establishing 28 National Ambulatory and Urgent Care Centers nationwide to cater to the 28 million most vulnerable Filipinos, including the poor, by the year 2028.
He promised to provide special medical procedures and medicines needed by patients, with support from PhilHealth and the local government.
“We look at Imus, Cavite as one of our most advanced local government units in terms of UHC implementation and to take a more proactive role in implementing the department’s initiatives as we envision UHC,” Herbosa said.
