Powered by GGives, the Test Now, Pay Later program allows patients to access instant loans for medical expenses—with zero-percent interest for the first two months. Patients can access this limited-time offer across Healthway Multi-Specialty Center’s network of 10 clinics in Metro Manila and soon in provincial areas where they can avail themselves of pre-employment or annual medical exams, laboratory tests, imaging scans, doctor’s consultations, executive check-ups, and vaccinations.
"We understand how access to healthcare is important and essential. With this initiative, patients can undergo necessary medical tests immediately without the burden of paying the entire amount upfront. We aim to make essential diagnostic tests more accessible and affordable by providing flexible payment options,"
Fuse Financing Inc. President and CEO Tony Isidro said.
In the Philippines, a significant portion of healthcare expenses is paid out-of-pocket, requiring many Filipinos to shoulder the full cost of consultations, tests, and treatments upfront. As a result, patients often delay or forego essential diagnostic tests due to financial constraints.
Filipinos, in addition, are spending more on healthcare because they increasingly need health services and deal with more cases of diseases, according to the WTW Global Medical Trends Survey.
The financial burden of hospitalization can result in further health complications. Studies show that many Filipinos seek medical attention only when symptoms have worsened, leading to late detection of illnesses that could have been treated earlier and at lower costs. Health insurance coverage remains limited, and even HMO members may encounter restrictions on covered tests or accredited facilities.
“By removing financial barriers, the program supports early diagnosis, timely treatment, and improved health outcomes for more Filipinos. It’s a step forward in making quality healthcare inclusive and within everyone's grasp,”
Isidro said.
“This partnership with Fuse is a significant leap for us in making quality healthcare more inclusive to more Filipinos, especially those who need immediate medical care. This initiative is more than just financing, it’s about improving lives and building a healthier future for our communities, ringing true to Healthway Medical Networks' promise of 'Care Beyond Cure”
Dr. Beverly Ho added, Chief Health Officer of AC Health.
