Makati extends free health services to over 95K non-residents
Makati City Mayor Abby Binay announced that over 95,000 individuals have benefited from the city's expanded healthcare services since last year.
The initiative includes free consultations at health centers for non-residents and extended access to various health services through mobile caravans.
Selected health centers now offer longer operating hours to accommodate those outside Makati’s jurisdiction, particularly residents of EMBO barangays transferred to Taguig City.
From January 2024 to February 2025, OsMak provided free outpatient consultations to 39,176 non-residents and subsidized emergency services to thousands more.
Mayor Binay emphasized that this initiative reflects Makati's commitment to extending its excellence in public health beyond its geographical boundaries.
In addition to healthcare, the caravans also offer specialized services like pet vaccination, legal aid, job placement assistance, and utility support from Meralco and Manila Water.
