Quality healthcare everywhere

Townships allow one to live, work, learn, play and even shop—all in one place.

Convenience and accessibility factor greatly when it comes to picking a place to live in. A number of property developers have given birth to townships where one can live, work, learn, play and even shop.

Take for example McKinley Hill, Megaworld’s 54.3-ha development in Taguig. Everything one might need is right here, with 34 residential condominiums, over 4,700 apartments, 482 residential lots, 90 restaurants and shops, 15 office buildings, 4 foreign embassies and 3 international schools.

All the basics in one place

Imagine not having to go far when you need to do that grocery run, want a quick bite so that hungry tummy can quiet down or suddenly think of catching a last full show of the latest flick.

McKinley Hill has Robinsons Selections as well as other convenience stores such as 7-Eleven and Ministop so you’re sure that you’re pantry is well-stocked.

Trusted health maintenance organization MediCard Philippines Inc. has opened one of its free-standing clinics here in McKinley Hill.

“Aside from being home to some of our accounts, McKinley Hill’s unique lifestyle and relaxed atmosphere has attracted investors and residents,” explained Dr. Nicky S. Montoya. According to MediCard’s president, this has allowed the HMO to be in a position to provide healthcare to the diverse market in the area.

Having a free-standing clinic in McKinley Hill affords MediCard members the convenience and ease should they need immediate assistance. Added Doc Nicky, “For instance, if someone has a minor medical issue that needs care, he/she can go to the clinic before rushing to the hospital. This way, the member can extend its benefits since our rates in the clinic are competitive.”

The clinic, which is nearly 100 sqm in size, is open to nonmembers, too. Families and individuals can visit the clinic for check-ups and avail themselves of some labs and diagnostics.

“Our clinics offer services in much lower rates versus major hospitals in the area, without a compromise in quality,” Doc Nicky said. “Hence the members are able to maximize their limits if they choose to visit our clinic.”

And even with McKinley Hill’s expansive and very dynamic location, Doc Nicky is confident that MediCard can cater to such a township. “We have an appointment system, we have competent pool of doctors and nurses and we have we have wide array of services. MediCard invests on the latest laboratory and diagnostic machines for more efficient patient care,” Doc Nicky concluded.
