The Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) has opened its first regional medical center, the Bangsamoro Regional Hospital and Medical Center (BRHMC), in Datu Hoffer town, Maguindanao del Sur.
This facility, established under Bangsamoro Autonomy Act 74, replaces the former 52-year-old Maguindanao Provincial Hospital.
The BRHMC is described as the largest and best-equipped hospital in the BARMM, operating directly under the regional government and not the Department of Health (DOH).
The facility has been converted into a Level III tertiary hospital, the highest category according to DOH standards, aiming to improve access to advanced medical care in underserved communities within the region.
The establishment of the BRHMC is seen as a significant benefit for the residents of the Bangsamoro region.
