The Medical City (TMC) launches two of its major initiatives —the Remote Care Center and the Center for Diagnostic Medicine. This is in celebration of its 55 years of patient partnership.
Remote Care Center
The Remote Care Center provides patients access to healthcare services even outside the care of the hospital—bringing continuous care, convenience and safety, and an innovative and compassionate approach to TMC’s patient-partners. This includes providing in-home support and care as an alternative to admission to an in-hospital setting for eligible patients including those requiring complex continuing care and rehabilitative care.
The Remote Care Center brings healthcare services closer to homes and communities, providing patients the best care possible, anytime and anywhere. Its numerous benefits include early intervention to prevent complications, convenience for the patients, improved access to care, and patient empowerment and education resulting in better health outcomes.
Patients can manage health vitals under medical supervision from the comfort of their home. This also gives more hospital spaces to treat more of those who need critical care and lowering readmission rates.
"Indeed, The Medical City proves that the future of healthcare is coming home," says TMC’s Chairman of Department of Medicine Dr. Amiel Dela Cruz.
The Center for Diagnostic Medicine
The Center for Diagnostic Medicine, backed up by The Medical City’s advanced diagnostic technologies and medical experts from multiple fields, provides well-designed programs that incorporate multidisciplinary case analyses to avoid misdiagnosis.
"Uncertain diagnosis and treatment plans can come at a substantial cost. That’s why, with regard to our health, it pays to be certain. Be confident with your health care and opt for a second opinion with the Center for Diagnostic Medicine," says Dr. Christian G. Delos Reyes, TMC’s chief marketing officer.
The Center for Diagnostic Medicine aims to help patients create confident and informed decisions about their medical conditions. A team of highly-experienced doctors and staff will be assigned to a patient based on his or her needs. To avoid misdiagnosis, a well-designed program that incorporates multidisciplinary cases analysis is set up by the center.
"The center will be a hub for those who wish to seek a second opinion or want their cases re-analyzed. We want to position ourselves as the hospital that can diagnose the hard-to-diagnose diseases," adds Dr. Delos Reyes.
