Press Release
PMCARE JOINS THE WAR AGAINST H1N1
The signing of
the MoU between PMCare and Ranbaxy enables about 2,200 PMCare panel clinics to be
registered under the “Klinik Cegah & Rawat H1N1” campaign. In line with the
directive from the Ministry of Health (“MOH”) to make available the antiviral at
private clinics, this MoU will ensure that the providers have sufficient supply
of the antiviral directly from the manufacturers.
The availability
of the antiviral at all GP clinics will ease the burden and dependency on the government
clinic and/or hospitals. At the same time, the ceiling selling price of RM80 will
also make the cost of treatment for Influenza A (H1N1) more affordable to all PMCare’s
Members which is currently stood close to 450,000 Members.
In line with the
government’s call to create awareness on H1N1, PMCare Medical Directors, Dr. Benjamin
Sinappan and Dr. Helmi
Ismail have been giving free health talks on H1N1 to their clients and Members nationwide.
Among PMCare’s major clients are Tenaga Nasional Berhad, Telekom Malaysia Berhad, POS
Malaysia Berhad, CIMB Bank Berhad, Proton Holdings Berhad, Bank Simpanan Nasional, Sapura Group of Companies
and UMW Group of Companies.
The PMCare panel
clinics can download the registration forms at

to participate in
the campaign or are welcomed to contact the respective Provider Network Executive
(PNE) for further information on this campaign.
