North Cotabato Provincial Hospital
« on: February 16, 2010, 07:24:02 AM »
With additional funding from the Department of Health and congressional funds, the North Cotabato provincial hospital is expected to have face-lift and improved hospital services, Rep. Bernardo Pinol (2nd district, North Cotabato) on Monday said.

Pinol was pushing for the conversion of the provincial hospital into a regional hospital, but his proposal remained pending before the House Committee on Health.

Pinol was able to secure P72 million additional funds for the improvement of the Cotabato Provincial Hospital.

He said P54 million was allocated for the construction of additional hospital rooms while P18 million will be utilized in the purchase of sophisticated hospital equipment, including a platelet separator.

Speaking during his radio program, Pinol said another P15 million has been secured for the improvement of the Mlang District Hospital in the town of Mlang, North Cotabato.

Pinol said the amount will be taken from the budget of the Department of Health for 2009.

“With these developments, I am very optimistic that we can improve the delivery of health services in the 2nd district,” Pinol said.

Earlier, South Cotabato 2nd district Rep. Arthur Pingoy, chairman of the House Committee on Health, told Pinol during their meeting that the conversion of CPH into a regional hospital is not possible at this time.

Pingoy said the DOH has not yet conferred full recognition of the Cotabato Regional Medical Center (CRMC) in Cotabato City as official medical center in Region 12.

He said DOH only allows one regional hospital per region thus Pinol’s proposal remains pending before the committee.

Pinol posed no objection to the move of Pingoy’s committee but said he expects that his proposal will be given priority in the committee’s succeeding meetings. (PNA)
