MAKATI Medical Center (MakatiMed) successfully concluded its 5th accreditation survey last Feb. 17-21, 2025. It is the first hospital in the Philippines to be accredited under the Joint Commission International (JCI) 8th Edition Accreditation Standards.

JCI surveyors conducted a thorough assessment of MakatiMed's systems, procedures and patient care protocols. They commended the hospital for its best practices, outstanding commitment to quality and dedication to patient safety. They also provided valuable recommendations and insights to further enhance operational excellence.

Saturnino Javier, MakatiMed Interim co-president, CEO and medical director, expressed his profound gratitude to all divisions and personnel who played a role in preparing for and executing the survey.

"This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire MakatiMed community. [W]e are proud of the strides we have made in strengthening our systems and ensuring that patient care remains our top priority," Javier stated.
