Medi Linx Laboratory Inc.

What Medi Linx Laboratory Inc. does

Medi Linx Laboratory Inc. is a Philippines-based centralized reference laboratory incorporated in 2017 as a joint venture between Metro Pacific Health, the largest private hospital group in the Philippines, and two Japanese firms — LSI Medience Corporation and Marubeni Corporation. The company operates as the centralized and reference laboratory of the Metro Pacific Health network, providing Hospital or Clinic Laboratory Operations Management, Lab to Lab (Send-Out) Laboratory Services, and Specimen Transport Support Service with temperature-controlled logistics to partner healthcare institutions. It maintains a test menu of more than 400 laboratory procedures and an Immunochemistry section with over 200 assays, plus a standalone clinical laboratory in Quezon City and supporting digital infrastructure. As of late 2024, the company had established Hospital Laboratory Management contracts with at least 12 partner hospitals and medical centers across Metro Manila, Cavite, Laguna, Central Luzon, and Mindanao, including Makati Medical Center, Asian Hospital and Medical Center, Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, West Metro Medical Center, Davao Doctors Hospital, and St. Elizabeth Hospital.

The company's product portfolio is organized into three LabCare screening tiers (Essential, Vital, Specialized) priced in Philippine Pesos, augmented by Executive Check-up, gender-specific Cancer Screening, Pre-Employment Medical Examination, and tiered Blood Chemistry (Chem 12 through Chem 23) packages. Direct-to-patient access is delivered through the standalone Quezon City laboratory, the Virtual Lab online booking and results platform, and the Lab to Go home specimen collection service, while corporate clients are served through dedicated Corporate Accounts for pre-employment and executive screening. Revenue mechanics combine multi-year managed-services contracts with hospital partners (Hospital Laboratory Management, Send-Out Services, Specimen Transport), per-test transaction fees for individual patients across retail and home-service channels, and recurring corporate health programs. The company is led by President and CEO Maria Estella P. Diokno, is PDPA-compliant under Philippine Data Privacy Act regulations, and received the 2024 Healthcare Asia 'Laboratory Initiative of the Year – Philippines' award.
