July 16, 2026 Better Health Through Partnership: iCare Receives Partnership Excellence Award from Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center
Healthcare becomes more accessible and dependable when hospitals, medical professionals, and health maintenance organizations work together toward a shared purpose: helping patients receive the right care when they need it.
On July 16, 2026, iCare HMO Philippines received the Partnership Excellence Award from Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center during the hospital’s 25th anniversary celebration.
The recognition honors the partnership between the two healthcare organizations and their shared commitment to providing members and patients with accessible, coordinated, and quality healthcare services.
A Partnership That Supports Better Patient Care
For HMO members, receiving healthcare involves more than presenting a membership card at a hospital. Behind every consultation, diagnostic procedure, emergency visit, and hospital admission is a coordinated process involving healthcare providers, medical professionals, HMO teams, and support personnel.
Strong partnerships between hospitals and HMOs help make this process more efficient and dependable. Clear communication, coordinated procedures, and a shared commitment to service can help members navigate their healthcare experience with greater confidence.
The Partnership Excellence Award reflects the importance of this collaboration and recognizes iCare’s role as a healthcare partner of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center.
For iCare, the recognition reinforces its commitment to building lasting relationships with hospitals and healthcare providers that share its goal of helping more Filipinos say yes to Better Health.
Strengthening Healthcare Through Collaboration
The Partnership Excellence Award adds to the recognition iCare has received for its organizational transformation and commitment to improving healthcare access.
In 2025, iCare received the Brand Transformation of the Year – Philippines award at the Insurance Asia Awards. The recognition followed the company’s return to its original iCare identity and its renewed focus on empathy, accessibility, affordability, and sustainable healthcare solutions for Filipino businesses and families.
The transformation reflects iCare’s continuing effort to strengthen not only its brand and services, but also its relationships with hospitals, clinics, physicians, and other healthcare professionals.
These provider relationships remain essential to ensuring that members can access appropriate healthcare services and receive dependable support throughout their healthcare journey.
The recognition from Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center brings this commitment closer to the point of care. It acknowledges the daily coordination, communication, and shared responsibility required to turn healthcare coverage into meaningful support for patients and their families.
Moving Forward Together
For iCare, provider partnerships are more than administrative arrangements. They are an essential part of transforming healthcare coverage into an experience that members can rely on: from their first consultation and diagnostic procedure to treatment, hospital care, and recovery.
The recognition from Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center strengthens iCare’s commitment to developing meaningful, long-term relationships with healthcare providers across the Philippines.
As Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Medical Center begins its next chapter, iCare celebrates the hospital’s 25 years of service and expresses its appreciation for a partnership built on trust, cooperation, and a shared responsibility to patients.
The Partnership Excellence Award is both an honor and a reminder that Better Health is not achieved by one institution working alone. It is made possible by hospitals, medical professionals, healthcare organizations, and partners working together for every member, every patient, and every Filipino community.
