Embassy of the United States Manila, Philippines

Hospitals in and around Manila often offer high-quality  medical care. However, even the best hospitals may not  meet the standards of medical care, sanitation, and  comfort provided by hospitals in the United States. Many  hospitals outside major urban areas may offer only basic  medical care in rudimentary conditions. It is wise to  evaluate the standards of medical care at a hospital before contemplating a medical procedure. 

Most hospitals will require a downpayment at the time of admission. Local hospitals do not usually accept U.S.  health insurance policies, but many U.S. insurers will  reimburse patients for hospital charges. Patients are often  required to pay their bills before being discharged from the hospital. 

Two of the premier private hospitals in Manila are the 
Makati Medical Center, Amorsolo Street, Makati, Tel.: 
(011-63-2) 815-9911

and

St. Luke's Hospital, E. Rodriguez Avenue, Quezon City, Tel.: (011-63-2) 722-6161 or 723-0301. 

For a list of licensed government and private hospitals and other health facilities in the Philippines, please consult the Philippine Online Health Directory or the Department of Health's Hospital List.

The Embassy has identified doctors, dentists' facilities, and hospitals in most of the regions for medical assistant.  However, the list is provided for guidance only; we cannot evaluate the credentials of the physicians and facilities on this list.
