Sen. Bong Go continued to push for the establishment of more Super Health Centers and Malasakit Centers across the country.

Go has been persistent in promoting measures to improve the country's health sector and to make the government's health services more accessible and affordable, especially for the poor.

"Bilang chair ng Senate Committee on Health and Demography, patuloy akong naghahanap ng mga solusyon upang mas mapabilis ang paghahatid natin ng de-kalidad na public healthcare services sa ating mga kababayan. Isa sa mga pangunahing isyu na kailangan nating tugunan ay ang kakulangan sa accessible na serbisyong medikal sa mga kanayunan," stressed Go.

To address this, Go has supported the funding for the creation of Super Health Centers nationwide, especially in far-flung communities. Nearly PhP3.6 billion has been allocated in the 2022 Health Facilities Enhancement Program to construct 307 such centers this year.

The Super Health Center is an improved version of the rural health unit. It offers health services including database management, out-patient, birthing, isolation, diagnostic (laboratory: x-ray and ultrasound), pharmacy and ambulatory surgical unit. Other available services are eye, ear, nose and throat (EENT) service; oncology centers; physical therapy and rehabilitation center; and telemedicine, where remote diagnosis and treatment of patients will be done.

"Sa pamamagitan ng Super Health Centers, hindi na kakailanganin ng mga Pilipino na pumunta sa malalaking ospital sa mga bayan o sentro ng lungsod para lamang magpagamot ng mga karaniwang karamdaman. Sa tulong ng mga Super Health Centers, mas mapapalapit tayo sa ating layunin ng mas malusog at matatag na mga komunidad kahit saan mang sulok ng ating bansa," Go highlighted.

"Iminungkahi ko ang pagtatatag ng mga Super Health Center noong nakaraang taon. Iminumungkahi ko rin na ang mga Super Health Centers ay magsilbing satellite vaccination sites para sa mga Pilipino na nakatira malayo sa urban centers," he added.

Apart from Super Health Centers, Go likewise continues to push for more Malasakit Centers in the country, noting that 152 Malasakit Centers have already helped millions of Filipinos nationwide.
