Through this collaboration, CareTech and RiteMed will actively support the KonSulTa program, ensuring that communities receive cost-effective and high-quality health care solutions.

By leveraging their combined expertise and resources, CareTech and RiteMed are committed to addressing critical health care challenges, streamlining pharmaceutical distribution, and enhancing primary care accessibility nationwide.

This partnership underscores their dedication to delivering relevant and inclusive health care services — a mission further strengthened through the support of Philippine Health Insurance Corp. or PhilHealth.

"We are very happy to support the Universal Health Care (UHC) in the country through this partnership with CareTech Health," RiteMed Philippines Inc. president Jose Maria Ochave said.

"RiteMed is a great partner for the fulfillment of medicines in the KonSulTa program that we are implementing in the Philippines, truly enabling the UHC. We are pleased that this is just the beginning. We are looking forward to other collaborations, that will also involve education," CareTech Health managing director Racquel Cagurangan said.
