The financial devastation that often results from the sudden onset of a major illness or an accidental injury suffered by the ordinary employee is a commonly shared concern by both the latter’s family and his employer. The realities of the times, however, often make the setting aside of the financial resources needed to protect the average daily wage earner from this danger take the budgetary backseat. To address the need for a healthcare coverage that will assure the average working man that in case he unexpectedly becomes ill or is injured both the financial and medical aspect of his problem is taken care of, Getwell Health Systems, Inc., an investor-based Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), was born. A corporation with a paid-up capital of P15 Million Pesos and an authorized capitalization of P60 Million Pesos, Getwell Health Systems, Inc., belongs to a business conglomerate composed of companies which are leaders in the service industry and employ a nationwide workforce of 5,000 men and women. Starting with his readymade membership base, Getwell Health Systems, Inc., has since established itself as a determined new player in the healthcare industry. Adopting a corporate policy of affordability, personalized service and prompt payment of bills, Getwell Health Systems, Inc., intends to rapidly gain acceptance among members of the working class as well as the best health care providers in the country ensuring its place in an industry that still in its infancy. Through this policy, Getwell Health Systems, Inc., hopes to touch the lives of Filipino families everywhere, especially the most needy.
