METRO PACIFIC MEMBER HOSPITAL, MALL-BASED CLINICS SIGN PARTNERSHIP DEAL
De Los Santos Medical Center (DLSMC) and Metro Sanitas Corporation (MSC) recently entered into a partnership agreement in serving the laboratory and diagnostic imaging requirements of MSC patients.
The agreement covers services unavailable in the MSC mall-based clinics such as CT Scan and MRI procedures.
Corporate accounts of DLSMC will also benefit from this partnership, as they will have access to any Metro Sanitas clinic near their workplace. The agreement covers inpatient and outpatient services.
Signing the memorandum of agreement were MSC CEO Anna Lacambra and DLSMC president and CEO Raul C. Pagdanganan.
MSC doctors will also be accredited at DLSMC, for them to assure patients of continuity of care, in case of emergency or confinement.
MSC is a joint venture between Metro Pacific Hospital Holdings, Inc. (MPHHI) and the worldwide established Keralty health specialized group. The venture is also setting up an outpatient clinic network in Metro Manila.
It has four branches: MetroSanitas Clinic Met Live (Met Live Mall, Pasay City), MetroSanitas Clinic Festival (Festival Mall, Muntinlupa), MegaClinic (SM Megamall and SM Mandaluyong) and TopHealth Clinic (SM San Lazaro, Manila).
DLSMC is a 150-bed, Level 3 private tertiary hospital located on E. Rodriguez Sr. Boulevard, Quezon City. It is the seventh member hospital of MPHHI under the MVP Group of Companies headed by businessman Manuel V. Pangilinan.
