“We look at Imus, Cavite, as one of our most advanced LGUs in UHC [universal health care] implementation and to take a more proactive role in implementing the department’s initiatives as we envision UHC,” Herbosa said.

“The DOH is always ready to extend our support and provide technical assistance to Imus, Cavite. This event also symbolizes a ‘TED’ to community health, as my nickname stands for ‘Tamang pagkain, Ehersisyo, at Disiplina sa katawan’,” he added.

Herbosa also said he was planning to establish “28 national ambulatory and urgent care centers nationwide” to cater to 28 million most vulnerable Filipinos, including marginalized communities, by 2028.
