Bohol Medical Care Institute has scored high

The Bohol Medical Care Institute has scored high in its first five months of operation since its launching in August last year, having served an average of 709 patients a month or a total of 3,546 clients.

In a year-end report, BMCI Administrator Dave Maulas stated that the diagnostic center had extended a total of 10,058 laboratory tests in the period, August-December last year.

Other services that BMCI had extended to clients during the period include 1,217 x-rays, 284 ultrasound, 142 ECG and 32 endoscopy.

The report also stated that as of December 29, 2009, the services that BMCI had extended to clients, free of charge, had reached an equivalent worth of P106,947, of which 93 percent were endorsed by the provincial government, three percent by dyRD Inyong Alagad Foundation, two percent by HomeReach Foundation and two percent by the city government.
         
"The pricing of the services at BMCI, which is 20-60 percent cheaper than other service providers, has generated a lot of positive comments regarding affordable health services. This is an achievement for the vision of the stakeholders," Maulas said.

BMCI's sales reached P1,327,304 or a monthly average of P265,460 for its first five months of operation.

Maulas attributed BMCI's success to its multi-sectoral approach to health development.

On the feat, Governor Erico Aumentado congratulated the other pillars of BMCI aside from the provincial government- -FCB Foundation, Inc., New York-based Boholanos behind the HomeReach Foundation, and the Bohol Chronicle-dyRD Inyong Alagad Foundation.

Aumentado also announced that this year, BMCI will be offering additional services like the operating room, dialysis department, and mammography.

BMCI will also be the venue of the Cataract Medical Mission on January 18-23, sponsored by the provincial government and the Sacramento Fil-Am Health Care Association. The medical mission is expected to benefit 100-150 indigent patients, Maulas said.

He also said the plan includes a year-round program for cataract surgeries for indigents, through the PhilHealth sa Para Masa.

"There is a reason for us to be optimistic for a greater year ahead, as we have made a good start in coming into an agreement with Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), local government units, schools, companies and other institutions for their diagnostic requirement. The same is true with our continuing partnership with physicians, municipal health officers, midwives and other referring personnel," Maulas said. (Angeline Valencia/PGMA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
