COTABATO CITY: The proposed parliamentary bills seeking to establish and upgrade hospital bed capacity in Tawi-Tawi have been refiled by several BARMM (Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao) lawmakers.
Member of Parliaments (MPs) Amilbahar Mawallil, John Anthony Lim, Eddie Alih and Suharto Ambolodto introduced Parliament Bills (PB) 45 and 46 in the plenary session last September 29.
Datu Halun Sakilan Memorial Hospital will be upgraded to a level 2 hospital with 100 beds as proposed in PB 45, and will be directly supervised by the Ministry of Health (MoH).
Mawallil said the proposed establishment of Datu Halun Sakilan Memorial hospital aims to provide residents of Tawi-Tawi with easy access to high-quality and sustainable health care services.
Mawallil said despite these improvements, the memorial hospital still functions at level 1 status and lacks the necessary supplies, equipment and personnel to provide adequate service to its patients.
