DAVAO CITY, Philippines — Davao Doctors Hospital (DDH) has officially renewed and expanded its long-standing partnership with Maxicare, one of the country’s leading health maintenance organizations. The collaboration was formalized through a joint contract signing, marking another milestone in making quality healthcare more accessible to the Davao community.
The renewal covers the main hospital’s existing affiliation and includes a new contract for the Davao Doctors Hospital Outpatient Care Center (OCC).
Expanded Access: Bringing Care Closer to Patients
In a move that enhances patient convenience, Davao Doctors Care Center – SM Lanang and Davao Doctors Care Center – SM City Davao (Ecoland) will become fully accredited Maxicare facilities effective May 1, 2026.
