Bringing Together Regional Hospitals to Strengthen Healthcare Nationwide at Metro Pacific Health's 2025 Provincial Cluster Summit

March 10, 2025

The Metro Pacific Health (MPH) group held the Provincial Cluster Summit 2025 in Panglao, Bohol, on February 26-28, 2025, at the Henann Tawala Resort. The three-day event brought together MPH group leaders and representatives from 14 regional hospitals across the Philippines. The summit, themed “Elevating Healthcare: A Coastal Gathering on Innovation and Growth”, was jointly hosted by Ramiro Community Hospital and West Metro Medical Center. The gathering focused on strengthening collaboration, sharing innovative healthcare strategies, and discussing ways to improve medical services in provincial areas, underscoring MPH's dedication to enhancing healthcare access nationwide.

The 14 partner hospitals that attended the summit included:

  • Antipolo Doctors Hospital

  • Central Luzon Doctors Hospital

  • Davao Doctors Hospital

  • Howard Hubbard Memorial Hospital

  • Los Baños Doctors Hospital and Medical Center

  • Lucena United Doctors Hospital and Medical Center

  • Manuel J. Santos Hospital

  • Medical Center Imus

  • Sacred Heart Hospital

  • St. Elizabeth Hospital, Inc.

  • San Francisco Doctors Hospital Inc.

  • City of General Trias Doctors Medical Center

  • Ramiro Community Hospital

  • West Metro Medical Center

These hospitals play a vital role in improving healthcare access, especially in underserved regions outside of Metro Manila.

 A key moment during the summit was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Ministry of Health (MOH)-BARMM, led by Dr. Kadil Sinolinding, Jr., and the 14 private hospitals. The agreement aims to enhance healthcare access in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) by providing quality care, expert treatment, and modern facilities.

Additionally, Manuel V. Pangilinan, Chairman of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation, shared an encouraging online message, urging everyone to continue striving for greater healthcare improvements in 2025. The summit served as another significant step in MPH's ongoing efforts to not only elevate healthcare nationwide but also strengthen the core of Filipino healthcare—accessible, compassionate, and community-centered care for all.
