As medical inflation in the Philippines continues to rise, three to four times higher than general inflation, employers and employees alike are feeling the strain.
At the 62nd PMAP Annual Conference held on October 22 to 24, 2025, at NUSTAR Resort in Cebu, iCare HMO reaffirmed its mission to help HR leaders balance quality healthcare with sustainable costs.
During the full-house session titled “Balancing Care and Cost: Disruptions that Redefine Workplace Health,” Atty. Gideon Peña, iCare’s Chief Commercial Officer, emphasized that “quality healthcare and financial responsibility are not competing goals.”
He was joined by Geronimo Francisco, iCare’s President and CEO, who shared success stories of companies that managed to overcome the pressures of medical inflation through iCare’s programs, strong customer service, and data-driven strategies.
With its blend of Singaporean efficiency and Filipino TLC, iCare continues to redefine what it means to be a trusted HMO, making healthcare accessible, affordable, and sustainable for companies of all sizes.
