Philippines’ healthcare mega app mWell strengthens global healthcare foothold
with back-to-back international awards

Metro Pacific Investments Corporation’s (MPIC) mWell continues to blaze trails in digital healthcare globally as it was named the winner of two Gold Stevie® Awards in the Innovation in Health & Wellness and Most Innovative Startup of the Year- Business Service Industries categories in the 10th annual Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards. mWell is the only Philippine entry to bring home the Gold Award in these two categories. Bronze winners include Vietnam, Taiwan, and Australia.

The two Gold Stevie® Awards come at the heels of being chosen as the Best Mobile Innovation for Digital Life in the 2023 Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards, held during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.

The Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards are the only business awards program to recognize innovation in the workplace in all 29 nations of the Asia-Pacific region. The Stevie Awards are widely considered to be the world's premier business awards, conferring recognition for achievement in programs such as The International Business Awards® for 21 years. Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the winners will be celebrated during a virtual (online) awards ceremony on Tuesday, 27 June.

More than 800 nominations from organizations across the Asia-Pacific region were considered this year in categories such as Award for Excellence in Innovation in Products & Services, Award for Innovative Management, and Award for Innovation in Corporate Websites, among many others. Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie Award winners were determined by the average scores of more than 100 executives around the world acting as judges in February and March.

“This recognition is a welcome affirmation of our work in healthcare,” says mWell Chairman and MPIC Chairman and CEO Manuel V. Pangilinan. “The goal is to improve the lives of all Filipinos, and this will inspire us to keep pushing boundaries in creating innovative healthcare solutions.”

mWell CEO and President and MPIC Chief Finance, Risk, and Sustainability Officer Chaye Cabal-Revilla said “As the Philippines’ healthcare mega app, this award fortifies our commitment to harnessing the power of technology as we make healthcare available, accessible, and affordable for more Filipinos wherever they may be in the world. Through our innovative digital solutions, we will continue being an ally in every step of the wellness journey—not just as an app but as a fully integrated, fully digital healthcare ecosystem worthy of global recognition.”

“The 10th edition of the Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards attracted many remarkable nominations,” said Stevie Awards president Maggie Miller. “The organizations that won this year have demonstrated that they are committed to being innovative, and we applaud them for their perseverance and creativity. We look forward to celebrating many of this year’s winners during our virtual awards ceremony on 27 June.”

mWell’s achievement comes soon after being recognized as the Best Mobile Innovation for Digital Life in the recently concluded 2023 Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards, held during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. Recognized in the new Digital Everything category, mWell is the first in the Philippines to receive this most prestigious accolade in the mobile industry, judged by more than 200 independent judges from across the world, comprised of leading industry and subject matter experts, analysts, journalists, and academics. It celebrates companies, individuals, and governments who have driven the greatest innovation in mobile and adjacent industries.

The country’s fully integrated and fully digital healthcare platform consistently holds its spot among the top health and fitness app in Google Play Store.

The top health app for telemedicine

An accredited telemedicine partner of the Department of health, mWell has redefined telemedicine in the Philippines via a seamless, fully digital experience. Choosing a doctor, consulting on video (within 3 minutes waiting time), receiving an e-prescription and getting a medical certificate all happen in the app.

Patients may consult online 24/7 with over over 800 Primary Care doctors, specialists, and mind health experts. They can even have their medicines delivered to their doorsteps via MedExpress. Furthermore, mWell provides a digital medical ID which empowers users to keep track of their own personal record which they can easily access. All records are stored in mWell’s secure platform.

Top global healthcare app for OFWs

mWell enables the delivery of healthcare services to Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families via a partnership with the Department of Migrant Workers. Breaking barriers through digital healthcare, mWell gives over 1.8 million OFWs access to highly-trained Filipino partner-doctors —internal medicine specialists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, ophthalmologists, and more. In just a few taps, they can consult right away with Filipino-speaking doctors, 24/7 or book an appointment at their convenience.

mWell has also made the Healthsavers Plan available globally to Filipino migrant workers who sacrifice being away from families to provide food on the table and education for their children. They may easily send their families the health pass as a gift and allow them to conveniently consult with mWell partner-doctors. The Healthsavers Plan P399 comes with one consultation and free accident insurance worth P20,000.

Top name in wellness

On top of telemedicine, mWell promotes overall wellbeing through preventive healthcare features. mWell is the first and only health app in the PH which allows users to track their health for free using the mWellness Score. Developed by award-winning data scientists, it measures physical health based on daily activities – exercise, light activity, steps, sleep. This serves as a guide to achieving a healthy physical lifestyle for long-term health.

Specialized fitness programs, including diabetes prevention and post-partum exercise designed to assist new moms to get back in shape safely and healthily are also found on the app. Calorie-controlled recipes created by nutritionists are also easily accessible.

mWell is the only healthcare app among the convenor organizations and supporting companies of the GoDigital Pilipinas (GDP) movement. It has truly set the standards in digital healthcare and changed lives through the power of technology. More innovative features will soon be unveiled by the country’s first fully integrated, fully digital health and wellness app.

As part of the MPIC Group, mWell is committed to working towards the achievement of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being. It also supports the MVP Group’s Gabay Kalusugan advocacy focusing on quality and affordable healthcare.

This International women’s month, mWell bolsters doctor roster with OB-Gynecologists, family physicians and mind health experts

Empowers doctors with the new mWellMD app

Metro Pacific Investments Corporation’s (MPIC) mWell, the country’s first and only health and wellness mega app, further strengthens its line-up of partner-doctors for its mission to bring healthcare closer to Filipinos especially women who are the primary health guardians of the family.

In celebration of International Women’s Month, mWell has tied up with Kalusugan ng Kababaihang Pangkabayanan, Inc (KnKPInc), a group that safeguards the well-being of marginalized Filipino women in the countryside. Working with member OB-GYNs, mWell shall provide free online consultation for women as part of KnKPInc’s medical mission this March.

Aside from providing quality healthcare to women in the countryside, the collaboration also aims to help raise awareness on issues such as reproductive rights, gender equality and abuse against women.

“Being a woman, a mother and having a daughter, I am fully committed to empowering women through mWell’s holistic approach to health and wellness. Recognizing the crucial role that women play in nation-building, mWell shall ensure that women receive access to doctors, a daily health tracker, fitness programs and healthy recipes—all within the mWell app. We are here to ensure good health and well-being of all women in every step of the wellness journey by providing the tools needed for improved productivity in the various roles they play,” said mWell President and CEO and MPIC Chief Finance, Risk, and Sustainability Officer Chaye Cabal-Revilla.

“We are honored to partner with mWell in promoting women’s health and empowerment. Through our medical missions, we can help underprivileged and marginalized Filipino women who still suffer from inadequate access to quality healthcare. Becoming part of the mWell ecosystem will greatly help in KnKPInc’s mission to address the delays in preventive care and disease management for women in the countryside,” said Dr.Connie Pijuan-Alfiler , Chairman and Founder of KnKPInc.

mWell welcomes mind health experts from YMP Lead

As a fully integrated, fully digital platform, mWell has also partnered with YMP Lead to strengthen its roster of mind health experts. Kicking off the partnership, free mind health consultations were provided to mWell app users to promote self-love as part of mWell’s Love For Wellness campaign. Recognizing the need to help ease anxiety and sadness especially during the Valentine season, mWell gifted app users with a health pass code which they can use to consult with psychologists from YMP Lead.

Asked about their consultation experience, MP, RPsy, RMPm Riyan Portuguez, founder of YMP Lead says, “As a practitioner, everything I need can be found in the app with just one click. It's easier for me to check my appointments and to have easy access to teleconsultation. I also really love the fact that it has automated coding for a specific diagnosis, and we can fill out and sign our abstracts after consultations. It's so convenient to use!”

”The mWell app is user friendly, easy to navigate, and multiple notifications (via email, text message, and the app itself) is helpful. Also, clinicians can input consultation notes and select coding for specific diagnosis. Overall, I love the app,” said Rachell Anne Castro, MA, RPsy, RPm.

After her consultations via mWell, Marry Jane Sioson, MP, RPm, RPsy said “The app allows both the clinician and the patient stay up to date with their session schedule via email and SMS. This feature helps a lot especially on organizing and setting us reminders amidst our busy schedules. Medical notes are easy to access and user friendly. High regards to the technical team who are quick to respond.”

Enabling doctors to go fully digital via the new mWellMD app

To better respond to the fast-paced lifestyle of doctors, mWell empowers all its partner-doctors to go fully digital by creating the new mWellMD app—a virtual clinic designed by doctors, for doctors. It allows them to easily manage schedules and patient records and be notified of upcoming patient schedules. Built with the doctor experience in mind, it provides a seamless experience from sign-up to consultation. The mWellMD app enables doctors to conveniently serve patients anytime, anywhere with its fully digital features. Recognizing their fast-paced lifestyle, mWellMD allows doctors to attend to patients on their mobile phone, wherever they may be, 24/7.

They can even communicate with their staff and refer patients to other doctors. Practice data and patient data are accessible anytime, anywhere. With just a click of a button on mobile, they can utilize an efficient appointment booking system for their online clinics and conveniently do online consultation for patients who are using the mWell app. Soon, enhanced features and a wider range of tools will be made available for doctors via mWellMD Advanced.

The Philippines’ #1 health and fitness app makes its way to the global stage

mWell continues to blaze trails in digital healthcare as it becomes the #1 health and fitness app in Google Play Store starting February. In its awards entry, mWell showcased its winning edge.

In a country like the Philippines where access to basic healthcare is a privilege rather than a right, Filipinos are still considered as the unhealthiest in Asia. Believing that uplifting the lives of Filipinos is a prerequisite to national progress, mWell, the country’s first fully integrated and fully digital health and wellness app vetted by data privacy and cybersecurity experts, brings healthcare closer to Filipinos wherever they may be. At their fingertips, users have access to quality but affordable healthcare and wellness programs anytime, anywhere. It breaks down geographic boundaries through technology, giving 24/7 access to primary care doctors, specialists, mind health experts, home care experts, emergency services, fitness, and food and nutrition programs.

Through the mWell ecosystem, doctors can serve patients beyond their geographic areas. To consult, patients simply need to download the app and sign in. After the video consultation, they will receive the doctor’s notes, medical certificate, and e-prescription. They can even have the medicines delivered right at their doorstep.

With the health and well-being of Filipinos in mind, mWell promotes preventive healthcare. It has an mWellness Score developed by data scientists, which measures your physical health based on your activities – exercise, light activity, steps, sleep. It has specialized fitness programs, including diabetes prevention and post-partum exercise designed to assist new moms to get back in shape safely and healthily; and nutrition programs designed by experts.

Both a digital health service and an advocacy, mWell’s line-up of firsts covers product features, innovations not only for patients but also for doctors. For example, it launched the biggest nationwide digital medical mission where Filipinos can consult for free with hundreds of volunteer doctors and mind health experts during the mWellness Day.

For affordable consultations, mWell was the first to offer telemedicine through a sachet health pass-- the Healthsavers Plan P399 which comes with one consult and free accident insurance worth P20,000. This may also be sent as a gift to loved ones and friends, allowing mWell app users to easily be agents of good health.

Breaking barriers through digital healthcare, mWell has made the Healthsavers Plan available globally to over 10 million Filipino migrant workers who sacrifice being away from families to provide food on the table and education for their children. They may easily send their families the health pass as a gift and allow them to conveniently consult with mWell partner-doctors.

mWell is the only healthcare app among the convenor organizations and supporting companies in the GoDigital Pilipinas movement which advocates digitalization initiatives to empower Filipinos through technology.

mWell drives digital healthcare for more Filipinos as it supports GoDigital Pilipinas

Metro Pacific Investments Corporation’s (MPIC) mWell heeds the government’s call for unity in advocating digitalization initiatives to empower Filipinos through technology during the launch of the GoDigital Pilipinas (GDP) movement. mWell, the Philippines’ first fully integrated and fully digital health and wellness platform, is the only healthcare app among the convenor organizations and supporting companies in the GDP.

Ms. Chaye Cabal-Revilla, MPIC Chief Finance, Risk and Sustainability Officer and mWell CEO represented mWell in the GDP launch during the National Economic and Development Authority 2023-2028 Forum at the PICC convened by The Private Sector Advisory Council Digital Infrastructure (PSAC-DI).

“As the country’s healthcare mega app, mWell is honored to be part of GoDigital Pilipinas. We shall collaborate with GDP to increase awareness and widen access to digital healthcare, especially for those in far-flung areas. Our innovative digital solutions are designed to respond to our countrymen’s needs, ensuring good health for economic productivity and nation-building. We shall continue to bring healthcare closer to more Filipinos here and abroad through a fully integrated, sustainable and future-proof digital platform,” said Ms. Cabal-Revilla.

Since its launch, mWell has been harnessing the power of technology to provide access to quality digital healthcare in a country with an average 3.7 doctors per 10,000 population-- way below the World Health Organization-prescribed ratio of 10 per 10,000. It helps address the shortage of healthcare facilities and personnel in rural areas. Underprivileged sectors, including Indigenous Peoples (IP) in remote, mountainous areas who need to travel for a day to see a doctor are now able to consult using the mWell app.

Fully digital consultation journey

mWell provides a seamless end-to-end journey for patients-- from booking a video consult or seeing a doctor 24/7 (with only 3 minutes of waiting time), paying for the consultation and even having their medicines delivered to their doorsteps. Free e-prescription, e-medical certificate and lab referral are loaded into the app after consultation. To empower users to keep track of their own personal health record, mWell was the first to provide a digital medical ID. Found on their mWell app, this allows patients to easily access their records stored in mWell’s secure platform.

mWell has over 500 Primary Care and Specialized partner doctors including Cardiologists, Dermatologists, Endocrinologists, Pediatricians, Neurologists, OB-GYNs, and Opthalmologists available for online consultation 24/7. Mind health experts are also just a tap away.

Breaking barriers through digital healthcare

Both a digital health service and an advocacy, launched the biggest nationwide digital medical mission where Filipinos can consult for free with hundreds of volunteer doctors and mind health experts during the mWellness Day.

It has deployed portable mobile digital clinic for remote communities—mWell OnTheGo. Each bag filled with foldable solar panels, a power station, and Smart pocket wifi, tablet/mobile phone preloaded with the mWell PH app containing a health passcode for online consultation is used to help bedridden patients and those living in areas without electricity.

mWell is the first health and wellness app available globally to Filipino migrant workers.

Through the app, 10 million migrant workers who sacrifice being away from families to provide food on the tables and education for their children may conveniently speak with Filipino doctors wherever they may be. They can also send their families the Healthsavers Plan—an affordable health pass with online consultation and accident insurance. Available for all app users, the Healthsavers Plan is ideal for sending the gift of health to friends and loved ones.

mWell has also partnered with global companies in digitalizing various patient care needs. To fortify its holistic approach to digital healthcare, mWell is working with global players in healthcare, wellness, technology, and research to promote far-reaching innovation centered solutions with its new Cancer Care Management initiative.

Digitalizing healthcare for Local Government Units (LGUs)

mWell has made significant inroads in digitalizing LGUs including Bacoor, Quezon City and Bataan. Through mWell’s high-performing platform, LGUs were able to allow their constituents to consult online with Primary Care doctors, specialists, and mind health experts.

mWell, an accredited telemedicine partner of the Department of Health, empowers LGUs to go fully digital in delivering better healthcare to their constituents in support of the Universal Health Care (UHC). The UHC seeks to provide every Filipino with the highest possible quality of health care that is accessible, efficient, and equitably distributed.

Preventive healthcare through fully digital wellness features

With the health and wellbeing of Filipinos in mind, mWell promotes preventive healthcare. It has an mWellness Score developed by data scientists, which measures physical health based on daily activities – exercise, light activity, steps, sleep. This serves as a guide to achieving a healthy physical lifestyle for long-term health.

mWell has also designed Wellness Wearables to democratize proactive healthcare and empower more Filipinos by making smart watches more affordable especially in regional areas. The wrist gadgets will allow anyone to easily track steps, physical activity, and sleep time through the mWellness Score on their watch.

Specialized fitness programs, including diabetes prevention and post-partum exercise designed to assist new moms to get back in shape safely and healthily are also found on the app. Calorie-controlled recipes created by nutritionists are also easily accessible.

Fully loaded mobile app for doctors

mWell provides innovative healthcare solutions not only for mWell app users but for partner-doctors as well. It empowers partner-doctors to go fully digital with the new mWellMD-- an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and clinic management system on mobile, designed by doctors, for doctors.

Recognizing their fast-paced lifestyle, mWellMD enables doctors to attend to patients on their mobile phone, wherever they may be, 24/7. Built with the doctor experience in mind, it provides a seamless experience from sign-up to consultation. Doctors were engaged to create the platform, test the system to make sure that the whole application is intuitive and user-friendly.

Revolutionizing Patient Care

mWell by Metro Pacific Health Tech Corporation (MPHTC) has recently signed a Collaboration Agreement with Metro Pacific Health (MPH) to provide a digital front door to MPH’s network of integrated healthcare services delivered by its hospitals and other fulfillment centers.

MPH, the largest integrated healthcare network in the Philippines, shall roll out virtual care and online consultations via its digital platform mWell MPH allowing patients to access the outpatient services of MPH's nationwide network of 19 hospitals, 22 outpatient care centers (OCC), and its roster of thousands of doctors accredited within the MPH network.
