MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Telehealth service provider KonsultaMD and global Japanese clothing brand Uniqlo kick off the holiday season with the gift of accessible healthcare services to their loyal customers.
The partnership was launched during Uniqlo Philippines’ Thank You Festival last November 2021, wherein the beloved brand goes beyond retail to share KonsultaMD’s advocacy of democratizing health services in the country.
Shoppers can get a FREE KonsultaMD Family Health Plan until December 19, 2021, for a minimum purchase of P4,000 at Uniqlo Philippines stores and online. The health plan covers one-month membership for a primary member plus four dependents, unlimited voice consultations, and four video consultations. It also includes access to e-prescriptions, e-documents, e-Laboratory requests, e-Medical Certificates, and other partner benefits.
Both KonsultaMD and Uniqlo Philippines believe in improving people’s lives by making healthcare available to everyone, everywhere – especially in areas where there are limited medical practitioners present.
“Telemedicine is becoming an important innovation to the lives of Filipinos. More and more are realizing the value of the service since it saves time, money, and effort. Moreover, with KonsultaMD, even those in far-flung places can talk to a doctor anytime and as often as they want,” said Cholo Tagaysay, KonsultaMD Chief Executive Officer.
Currently, the service has reached over one million members who enjoy 24/7 unlimited access to licensed doctors via voice or video call for as low as P60 a month.
Subscribed members can consult with doctors specializing in various fields — from general medicine, family medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, rehabilitation medicine, mental health support (counseling and psychotherapy), psychiatry, dermatology, ophthalmology, dentistry, ENT, and surgery.
