The Medical City

What The Medical City does

The Medical City (TMC) is a privately held, integrated hospital network headquartered on Ortigas Avenue in Pasig City, Metro Manila, Philippines. It operates one flagship tertiary complex (Ortigas) plus four provincial hospitals — TMC-Clark (Pampanga), TMC-Iloilo (Molo), TMC-South Luzon (Sta. Rosa, Laguna) and TMC-Pangasinan (Dagupan City) — together with Guam Regional Medical City (the first and only private hospital in Guam) and over 70 outpatient clinics across Metro Manila and select provinces. The network is organized into specialized clinical institutes (Cardiovascular, Augusto P. Sarmiento Cancer, Neurological Sciences, Women's Health, Pediatrics, Eye and Vision, ENT, Acute Critical Care, Wellness and Aesthetics) supported by clinical departments including a 24/7 Surgery Suite performing robotic-assisted and laparoscopic procedures and a Radiation Oncology Department equipped with Varian Truebeam and Clinac 21EX linear accelerators, HDR brachytherapy, and image-guided stereotactic radiosurgery.

Underlying technology comprises hospital information systems, electronic medical records, telemedicine platforms, a patient portal (TMConnect), an Online LOA Request System for HMO coordination, an Online COVID-19/health screening tool, and AI-assisted scheduling capabilities. The network serves approximately 50,000 inpatients and 500,000 outpatients annually at the main facility, with more than 1,500 affiliated physicians, including specialists capable of advanced interventions such as TAVI, liver transplantation (via a joint program with Rizal Medical Center), and complex oncology care.

The business model is primarily transaction-fee revenue from inpatient and outpatient clinical services across the network, reimbursed through a mix of PhilHealth benefit packages (including Z-benefit packages for catastrophic illness and liver transplantation), HMO partnerships (PhilCare, iCare and others) coordinated via the Online HMO Concierge, corporate self-pay, and a dedicated International Patient Concierge serving medical tourists and overseas Filipino workers. Pricing is largely quote-based, with published benchmarks including the Alfredo R.A. Bengzon Patient Access Ward (P1,500 per stay) and the Discover Your Wellness medical-tourism package starting at USD 418. Distribution mixes direct hospital/clinic service delivery with channel partners (HMOs, PhilHealth, a Guam referral office, the Philippine Department of Tourism and local government alliances), making TMC functionally a multi-site tertiary/quaternary care platform with B2C and B2B revenue streams.
