MediCard Philippines Inc. was incorporated in December 1986 and formally inaugurated on May 15, 1987, to provide comprehensive healthcare coverage to individuals in Metro Manila and key provincial areas. The company was conceptualized by eminent physicians who saw the need to make healthcare as accessible as possible to many Filipinos.
From a company that started servicing only individuals and families, it has evolved to a company that is a health provider to big multi-national and Filipino-owned corporations. MediCard now boasts almost one million members and over 51,000 accredited doctors in over 1,000 hospitals and clinics nationwide.
It also operates 15 MediCard free-standing clinics that provide services at par with those offered by hospitals minus the confinement. In addition, MediCard also introduced My MediCard, RxER, Health Plus, and Health Check Cards to target more Filipinos.
Even Filipinos working abroad can now have peace of mind by giving health protection to their loved ones in the Philippines through MediCard Kabayan.
MediCard has maintained its position being a leading HMO in the country as it remains among the Top 3 HMOs in the Philippines and the Top 500 corporations in the Philippines.
MediCard is a Health Maintenance Organization that provides a comprehensive health care program for its members. This includes emergency care, hospital confinement, preventive health care, dental care and out-patient consultation services.
