Azanza: Free maintenance medicines to be delivered to beneficiaries’ homes
August 30, 2026

Catanduanes Governor Patrick Azanza said that free maintenance medicines will be delivered directly to the homes of the beneficiaries as part of a new health initiative aimed at improving access to medications across the province.

Azanza announced that the Provincial Health Office (PHO) has started repacking medicines that will be distributed to patients in every barangay in Catanduanes.

“Rasyon ng Libreng Maintenance Medicines Derecho Idedeliver ng PLGU sa Bahay ng Bawat Pasyente. Ongoing na ang repacking ng mga maintenance medicine sa PHO na dadalhin derecho sa bahay ng mga pasyente sa bawat barangay dito probinsya ng Catanduanes. Good for 3 months ang kanilang supply at pakatapos ng 3 months ay papadalhan ulit sila ng PLGU ng kanilang rasyon for the next 3 months,” Azanza said.

“Batay sa verified list ng mga pasyente na nakasumite ng kanilang mga reseta, may total na 25,010 pasyente sa buong Isla ang makikinabang dito matapos na kalapin ng PHO sa bawat RHU at munisipyo ang aktwal na listahan ng mga pasyente na nangangailangan ng maintenance medicines,” he said.

In addition to medicines for diabetes and hypertension, the provincial government will also distribute vitamins and other prescribed medications based on the needs of individual patients.

“Maliban sa gamot sa diabetes at hypertension, may kasama ring mga vitamins ang inirarasyon na gamot ayon sa reseta sa pasyente. May assigned pharmacist para sa pagdispense ng gamot sa mga pasyente,” Azanza added.

The governor also encouraged residents who have not yet registered to avail of the program, assuring them that the PHO remains open to accommodate additional beneficiaries.

“Napagkasunduan din na kung meron mang gusto pang humabol o hindi nakapagpalista, ay bukas ang PHO para sila ay isali sa programang ito ng Office of the Governor,” he said.

“Parte ng pondong inilaan dito ang bahagi ng Confidential Funds na mas pinili ng Governor ilaan sa gamot para mas maraming may sakit ang makinabang. Pwede naman pala gawin sa Catanduanes kung gugustuhin,” he said.

The governor highlighted that the program is the first of its kind in Catanduanes.

“Ngayon lang ito na ginawa sa Isla na pinagtuunan ang pamimigay ng libreng maintenance medicines sa lahat ng munisipyo at barangays para sa 25,010 na pasyente sa buong Catanduanes,” Azanza said.
