Pampanga's ₱50M diagnostic center to offer free lab tests by July 2023

The provincial government of Pampanga will open a new ₱50-million diagnostic building in Lubao by July 2023. Governor Lilia Pineda unveiled the facility during a medical mission that served over 1,100 residents. The centre aims to provide free laboratory services to local communities. The diagnostic building forms part of the Alagang Nanay Preventive Healthcare Program, which encourages regular checkups and early disease detection. It will offer a range of services, including blood chemistry tests, X-rays, 2D echo, mammograms, CT scans, and ultrasounds.

During the launch, a medical mission provided free consultations, essential medicines, and food packs to 1,156 beneficiaries. Governor Pineda highlighted the project’s role in improving healthcare access for residents in Pampanga’s second district.

The facility will begin operations in July 2023. Residents will gain access to free laboratory tests and diagnostic services. The initiative aligns with broader efforts to strengthen preventive healthcare in the province.
