Mobile health app mWell offers PH the full healthcare services experience

This is due to having a 1:26,000 medical practitioner to population ratio—way below the World Health Organization requirement of 10, 000.

Home lab tests and medicine delivery are also available. In fact, it is the only app that delivers holistic healthcare, and the first to sachet telemedicine and insurance via Healthsavers Plan P399/consult with free P20,000 accident insurance.

Specialized fitness programs and calorie-controlled recipes by nutritionists can be accessed virtually.

To maximize these features, mWell introduces mWellness Wearables, a line of smartwatches and rings. Through it, users can check their important health metrics, track workouts, and enjoy unlimited access to 100 exercise modes, heart rate, and blood oxygen at an
