Dear Atty. Espuelas:

We are pleased to submit our offer for the Comprehensive Health Care Package
of your valued officers, employees and
their dependents.

The main feature of the program includes services and benefits for:
Hospitalization Confinement or In-patient Members' Financial Assistance
Out-patient Care Dental Health Care
Preventive Health Care
Emergency Care

Aside from being known in the industry for flexibility and quality services, may we present the following advantages your
company will benefit if and when you wit give us the opportunity to administer your health care program:
1. MediCard is a pioneer in the HMO industry established in 1987.
It is also one of the six founding members of the
Association of Health Maintenance Organizations of the Philippines, Inc. (AHMOPI).
2. MediCard is the only HMO being rein and operated by doctors.
3. MediCard is the only HMO awarded with the ISO 9001: 2008 Certification
in the Philippines and in Asia.
4. MediCard is the largest HMO in the Philippines in terms of membership base totaling to more than 500,000, a very
significant factor to support claims.
5. Our hospital-based system or open-door policy, in contrast to clinic-based and designated hospital,
enables
members to avail of hospitalization and out-patient services in any of our more than 1,000 accredited
hospitals/clinics backed-up by 40,000 doctors & specialists nationwide that is most convenient and accessible to
them. Leading the list are Asian Hospital and Medical Center, Makati Medical Center, St. Luke's Medical Center,
The Medical City and Cardinal Santos Medical Center.
6. MediCard has a team of well-trained liaison officers who assist members during confinement and before discharge.
7. MediCard has Emergency Assistance and Response Service (EARS) Hotlines-available 24 hrs. a day, 365 days a

You can now channel your administrative's time and efforts to other more productive areas. NO MORE TEDIOUS
DOCUMENTATION PROCEDURES. It is almost trouble-free.
9. Since our professional fees are based on HMO-industry standards, it will take longer for members to maximize the
limitations of their benefits. Unlike other HMOs, our maximum limit for the dreaded disease is on a per illness per year
basis and not on an aggregate, lifetime or entire membership limit,
10. MediCard is known for the quality services we have been extending to our clients for the past years as proven by our
renewal persistency rate of 88%. Some of our more than 2,300 corporate clientele are 24/7 Customer Philippines,
