Cagayan De Oro — The local government unit of Cagayan de Oro has extended its outreach campaign to deliver free medical checkups, essential medicines, and health insurance enrollment directly to public school campuses. Spearheaded by the City Health Insurance Office (CHIO) alongside the City Health Department (CHD) and the Department of Education (DepEd) Cagayan de Oro Division, the Suruy-Suruy sa Skwelahan (SSS) program held an outreach session at Indahag National High School. The event assisted 579 individuals, providing students, parents, and school faculty with direct access to vital healthcare services. Through PhilHealth registration, membership updating, Yakap (Yaman ng Kalusugan) enrollment, and prescription distribution, the city continues to build a healthier, more supportive environment for academic communities across Northern Mindanao.
Mobile Health Teams Deliver Direct Medical Care Across Public School Grounds
Healthcare workers and administrative staff transformed school facilities into temporary clinic stations to assist hundreds of neighborhood families. Medical personnel conducted physical checkups, distributed free maintenance medications, and offered personalized health counseling to students, parents, and school employees. Meanwhile, insurance officers processed new PhilHealth memberships and updated existing records to ensure uninterrupted coverage under national health programs. Integrating healthcare services directly into educational spaces eliminates travel hurdles for busy parents while keeping student wellness at the forefront of municipal policy.
