mWell, a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC), is revolutionizing health and wellness access in the Philippines with the launch of mWell HealthHub. This innovative in-app feature allows users to easily search for a wide range of health and wellness services, filter results by location, and book appointments with just a few taps. With mWell HealthHub, Filipinos now have the power to take control of their overall well-being with the assurance of quality care, all through a single, user-friendly platform.

Since its launch in October 2022, mWell has been at the forefront of digital healthcare solutions in the Philippines. Continuing its mission to provide easy access to comprehensive health and wellness services, mWell HealthHub is a significant step towards empowering individuals and inspiring healthier happier lives. Manuel V. Pangilinan, MPIC Chairman, President, and CEO, shares, "Our mission with mWell HealthHub goes beyond innovation; it is about empowering individuals to take control of their health. It also serves as an ally for our health and wellness entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), enabling them to expand their online reach for business growth, making mWell truly the digital gateway for everything health and wellness.”

MPIC Chief Finance, Risk and Sustainability Officer and mWell President and CEO Chaye Cabal-Revilla adds, “We believe in empowering individuals with the ability to access a comprehensive range of health and wellness services effortlessly, so we are committed to ensuring that our mWell mega app offers an experience that places extensive health and wellness services within easy reach. With mWell HealthHub, we are reshaping the landscape of health and wellness, placing the power of choice and convenience in the hands of users, at the same time, enabling providers.”

Marking a milestone in the Philippine health and wellness industry, the launch of mWell HealthHub further solidifies mWell’s status as the country’s healthcare mega app. mWell is the only Philippine-based app available globally that provides the most comprehensive services including 24/7 doctor consultation, medicine delivery, emergency, home care services to fitness, food and nutrition all in one mega app.

Comprehensive Access for Filipinos. mWell HealthHub offers Filipinos comprehensive access to a wide spectrum of health and wellness services, ranging from medical consultations to wellness programs. Users can explore a diverse range of services with real-time availability and location filtering, making it easier than ever to find the care they need.

Simplified Booking. In a world where convenience is key, mWell HealthHub streamlines the process of booking health and wellness appointments. Users can effortlessly book appointments directly through the mega app, eliminating the hassles of traditional appointment booking and making access to dental, eye, skin, and wellness services convenient and user-friendly.

Trust and Reliability. One of the core features of mWell HealthHub is the ability to connect with accredited clinics and wellness centers. This ensures that users receive top-notch care from trusted sources, enhancing the overall quality and reliability of health and wellness services.

Empowering Entrepreneurs and SMEs. With a platform where their services can be easily discovered, filtered by location, and appointments can be booked seamlessly, health and wellness entrepreneurs and SMEs can connect with a broader audience. This accessibility not only enhances their visibility but also ensures efficient management of bookings, enabling them to focus on delivering quality care. With mWell HealthHub, they can also elevate their online presence, attract more clients, and optimize their processes to foster sustained and meaningful business expansion.

The Vision and Inception - A Forward-Thinking Initiative. Championing this forward-thinking initiative and driving the creation of mWell HealthHub is Ms. Chaye Cabal-Revilla, along with mWell’s dedicated Enterprise segment team - Rommel Galapon, Dr. Michael Fong, and Albert Padin who recognized the global trend of seeking health information and services online. With the significant smartphone and internet penetration rates in the Philippines, the introduction of an all-encompassing online health hub that benefits both users and providers will be a natural evolution and will catapult mWell HealthHub's potential. This endeavor is fortified by the collaborative efforts of other companies within the MPIC conglomerate, collectively striving to elevate the standard of healthcare accessibility in the Philippines.

Global Recognition. mWell is the winner of two Gold Stevie® Awards in the Innovation in Health & Wellness and Most Innovative Startup of the Year- Business Service Industries categories in the 10th annual Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards. It is the only Philippine entry to bring home the Gold Award in these two categories. Bronze winners include Vietnam, Taiwan, and Australia. The two Gold Stevie® Awards come at the heels of being chosen as the Best Mobile Innovation for Digital Life in the 2023 Global Mobile Awards, held during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. 

mWell is committed to working towards the achievement of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being. It also supports the MVP Group’s Gabay Kalusugan advocacy focusing on quality and affordable healthcare.

mWell has been paving the way for better healthcare in the Philippines through different solutions aside from mWell HealthHub. Some of these are mWell MD Advanced, a tool that empowers doctors with a comprehensive clinic management and Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system, and mWell Patient Engagement (PE) for hospitals which enhances patient-hospital interactions for better care.
