MANILA, Philippines — Over a year into this pandemic and arguably the number one thing it has taught us is that health is our most valuable asset. Despite the imminent threat of serious illness, we need to keep our bodies safe and find ways to tide through expenses if ever we get sick.
No doubt, this uncertainty on where to pull and pool funds from is the root of a lot of our pandemic anxieties, and it’s normal. Because of extra safety measures that they have to take, hospitals have to raise their prices. And as household decision makers—whether of our family or of our own solo households—we are committed to taking proper care of ourselves and our families by providing for them and securing their health as best as we can.
The easiest, quickest and even best option for securing one’s health is to procure a reliable HMO for you and your family. But with so many HMO plans available, the anxiety piles up even more when faced with deciding on which HMO plan to choose: which HMO will offer the most comprehensive coverage? Which HMO will feature the widest network of healthcare providers? Which HMO is affordable but will provide the best healthcare for me and my family? And in those two respects, which HMO is best?
MyMaxicare is the most respected HMO plan for individuals and families alike. It is a full-risk, full coverage healthcare plan that offers a comprehensive coverage, with the widest network of hospitals, clinics, and providers in the Philippines.
