Philippines possesses a dominant and large private healthcare sector compared to the public healthcare sector. Despite the governments’ effort to reform the healthcare regulations, financial conditions and inequalities in the country, the healthcare sector is highly fragmented and less quality services. The government has provided access to quality medicines because it is a fundamental human right to health and has established five foundations for the use and manufacture of pharmaceuticals in the Philippines. These medicines are safety, efficacy and quality; affordable and available; used as rational drug; accountability and good governance; and supports healthcare systems.

An ageing population, urbanisation, and increase in middle class have led to an increasing demand for quality healthcare services. There is a huge gap in the Philippines' healthcare delivery system and abundant opportunities are available for domestic and international players to invest in the country’s healthcare sector. Philippines government has implemented a policy to protect public health by supplying affordable quality drugs and medicines to the population.

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) encourage healthcare developments in terms of technology transfer, training, funding and optimising operational efficiencies. Medical tourism in Philippines is still under-marketed and undeveloped. The country is undeveloped in many sectors such as transport, poor air connections, costly airfares and poor transport infrastructure which reflect on Philippines health tourism market.

Universal health insurance coverage is provided for almost 80% of the citizens in Philippines. It is single-payer insurance, premium-based and has a universal coverage. Universal medical insurance coverage needs more attention and government coordination. To promote medical tourism, the department of health in Philippines needs to be more dedicated towards the healthcare system within the country. Philippines population are witnessing a huge financial burden on healthcare. With the coordination of government and foreign investment, the healthcare sector can build on its strengths to provide the best healthcare in South-East Asia.
