Muntinlupa City Government to provide free breast ultrasound and mammography tests

In the progressive city of Muntinlupa, the City Government will provide free breast ultrasound and mammography tests to specific and qualified patients, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

The Muntinlupa City government will provide free breast ultrasound and mammography tests to endorsed patients and beneficiaries of the Kalingang Munti Action Center (KMAC), a one-stop shop for the public in availing frontline services.

The Muntinlupa City Council approved Resolution 2023-238 authorizing Mayor Ruffy Biazon to enter into a memorandum of agreement with the Medical Center Muntinlupa Inc., to provide free breast ultrasound and mammography tests.

“We definitely welcome this development as this enables the city government to address the problem of breast cancer head-on. By early detection, we hope to save many families from the heartbreak of losing mothers and women family members to an otherwise preventable disease,” said Biazon.

Under the agreement, the city government will shoulder the cost of the tests of patients and target beneficiaries identified by KMAC and verified by the Gender and Development (GAD) Office.
