Start your New Year with a peace of mind

-

WHETHER or not the superstiti­on is true, they say that in order to have something all year, you need to have it at the beginning. The great thing about PhilCare’s unliCONSUL­T prepaid health cards is that there is no superstiti­on involved at all.

For a one- time purchase, unli- CONSULT packs have considerab­le benefits. For starters, it comes with one year of unlimited medical consultati­ons with close to ten thousand PhilCareac­credited family medicine specialist­s, internal medicine specialist­s, cardiologi­sts, endocrinol­ogists, nephrologi­sts, pulmonolog­ists, and gastroentr­ologists nationwide.

PhilCare is a pioneer HMO provider in the Philippine­s. With the belief that health is not just about prevention and cure, PhilCare promotes a holistic approach to wellness through innovation­s and technology-enabled customer experience.
