Less fortunate
Malaynons will no longer feel they were being held like a “hostage” in the
Provincial Hospital.
This is if the
agreement between the Local Government of Malay and Dr. Rafael S. Tumbukon
Memorial Hospital in Kalibo will be achieved.
At this time,
the Malay Municipal Council is in the process to give Malay Mayor John Yap an
authorization to get into an agreement with the mentioned hospital in order for
Malay indigents to acquire free services.
SB Member Rowen
Aguirre in his Committee Report during yesterday’s session said, if granted,
included in the agreement, is that the LGU will finance the hospitalization of Malaynons who doesn’t have the means to pay.
This however has
its limitation, such as the patient cannot overstay in the hospital when they have
already recovered.
The LGU must
also give 300,000 pesos as a deposit in exchange for free hospital services for
Malay and Boracay indigents.
