AKO BICOL hands over dialyzer units to Bicol Regional Training and Teaching Hospital, Albay

Rep. Rodel M. Batocabe of AKO BICOL Party List personally handed-over dialyzer units to beneficiaries currently availing government-subsidized dialysis sessions at Bicol Regional Training and Teaching Hospital, Daraga, Albay. He was joined by AKO BICOL’s liaison to BRTTH Dialysis Center, Mrs. Elvie Cedeño.

AKO BICOL Party List is currently pushing for the review of the recently-released guidelines for the payment scheme for dialysis services availed through public hospitals, where a higher percentage of the total cost per session shall be shouldered by the recipient, after deduction of Philhealth coverage. Rep. Batocabe said that this requires utmost priority for humanitarian reasons since this involves human life, that would sacrifice lives if left ignored.
