Maxicare Intensifies Healthcare Program for the Filipino People



Maxicare Healthcare Corporation will be celebrating its 25th anniversary soon and it recently announced new developments in their business and service offerings to provide one of the best healthcare programs in the Philippines. 


The company was established in 1987 by an esteemed group of doctors and businessmen who visualized a better healthcare delivery system in the country. Today, Maxicare has more than 600,000 cardmembers and services 800 top corporations from various industries as well as over 1,700 SMEs, individuals and families. 

"We have achieved great success over the years and we want to ensure that we will continue to provide the best healthcare program to our current and prospective members,” pronounces Maxicare Healthcare Corporation President and CEO Jose Pastor Z. Puno.

For Maxicare, good healthcare is defined by its sustainability. Aside from partnering with more than 20,000 doctors and specialists, 3,500 dental providers, 950 hospitals, 11 Primary Care Centers and 7 Customer Care Centers, Maxicare also developed specific programs for member companies, SMEs and individuals to cater to their varying health needs and varied investment capabilities. As the number of clients grows, so does their vast medical network continue to expand.


On top of their usual HMO service for corporate clients, Maxicare has innovated Maxicare Plus for SMEs, MyMaxicare for families and individuals and Maxicare EReady, the first emergency card available in the HMO industry. To give members the flexibility to avail of the products, each service is customizable according to each member’s needs and financial capital. Puno assures that these programs "are designed to give almost anyone the capability to arm themselves with healthcare program – from corporate, SME and on the individual level."

In addition to its more comprehensive products, Maxicare also upgraded its facilities via their new tower that houses its more than 700 employees to further enhance its healthcare products and services to its current and future members.


“We see the new tower as the ultimate symbol of the company’s continued growth and strength as a business, its sustained leadership in the local HMO industry and strengthened commitment to provide our members with the best healthcare assistance program in the industry,” says Puno. 

To also guarantee their members' peace of mind in terms of healthcare benefits, Maxicare has made sure to be constantly financially stable and armed with the financial capital to pay its maturing obligations to its providers. Last year, Maxicare reported a stockholders equity of Php331 million and an earned membership fee of Php3.6 billion.

All these developments and innovations, shares Puno, are a great way to showcase Maxicare‘s leadership and credibility as an industry standard in the Philippine HMO industry. “As our 25th year in the industry comes near, we are optimistic that our organization will continue to work in order to help ensure that the Filipino community can arm themselves with the healthcare program that they need,” he concludes.
