MANILA, Philippines — Senator Christopher "Bong" Go expressed his gratitude to fellow lawmakers as his proposed Senate Bill No. 2212, also known as the Regional Specialty Centers
The proposed bill mandates the Department of Health to establish specialty centers in DOH hospitals in every region within five years. This approach leverages the expertise and availability of healthcare professionals already working in these regional hospitals.
Particular emphasis will be placed on establishing heart, lung, and kidney centers that replicate the capabilities of the National Specialty Centers in Metro Manila. The bill also authorizes specialty centers to contract medical specialists and experts to provide training and technical assistance.
