PCSO expands patient transport fleet in Mindanao with 44 vehicles

The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) has expanded its patient transport fleet in Mindanao by distributing 44 patient transport vehicles (PTVs) to various local government units across the region. The event was led by First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos and aimed to improve access to healthcare services, aligning with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s directive to bring essential services closer to Filipinos. These vehicles are intended to enhance patient mobility, emergency medical response, and access to healthcare facilities. The distribution is part of PCSO's ongoing Medical Transport Vehicle Donation Program (MTVDP), which seeks to utilize proceeds from gaming operations to provide concrete health and social services to the public.
