Patient-Centered Care Through Medical Fee Transparency and Generic Name Prescribing

We also practice generic name prescribing, in accordance with national government guidelines, to facilitate smoother medication dispensing at pharmacies. Our commitment to accountable, trustworthy care is further demonstrated by our public disclosure of all notifications filed with the Regional Bureau of Health and Welfare on our official website.
