As the Basilan General Hospital (BGH) gears towards its eventual upgrade, the Telemedicine system poses a viable option for this hospital to access specialized medical services that are currently limited or not available in this hospital. Cognizant of the need for provision of medical services in certain subspecialties in a remote location such as this province, the BGH seeks partnership with the ZCMC in implementing the Telemedicine system in this hospital.
It was a meaningful discussion among the following key persons of both hospitals and ZCMC subspecialty consultants:
Dr. Afdal B. Kunting- ZCMC Medical Center Chief II
Dr. Sitti Nurussamsi C. Amilasan- BGH Medical Center Chief I
