mWell, a mobile application developed by Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC), has secured its place as one of the leading players in the digital realm. The product has recently been awarded the highly-coveted 2023 Global Mobile Awards (GLOMO) Best Mobile Innovation for Digital Life Award, Digital Everything Category, at the Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona, Spain. The award is a testament to mWell’s excellence and innovation, as it was judged by some of the most prominent experts in the mobile industry. This recognition cements mWell’s position at the forefront of the digital revolution, outperforming all other global brands.

“Your appreciation of our efforts inspires us to keep going and to remain at the forefront of digital healthcare in the Philippines.  As the country’s first and only health and wellness mega app, our innovative digital solutions continue to respond to our country’s needs, ensuring good health and enabling economic productivity and nation-building through a fully integrated, sustainable and future-proof digital platform. This award fuels our passion for inspiring positive change and continuing to be an instrument for our country’s sustainable development. At mWell, we make health and wellness affordable, available, and accessible to every Filipino anytime, anywhere,” according to Chaye Cabal-Revilla, MPIC Chief Finance, Risk and Sustainability Officer and mWell CEO in her acceptance speech.

mWell is the Philippines’ first fully integrated, fully digital health and wellness app that continues to lead the way in digital healthcare. In February 2023, it was ranked as the #1 health and fitness app in the Google Play Store. The app’s award-winning edge was showcased in its entry for the prestigious Global Mobile Awards.

In the Philippines, where access to basic healthcare is still considered a privilege rather than a right, mWell is dedicated to making healthcare more accessible to Filipinos. The app, which has been vetted by data privacy and cybersecurity experts, provides quality yet affordable healthcare and wellness programs to users anytime, anywhere. It breaks down geographic barriers through technology, giving users 24/7 access to primary care doctors, specialists, mind health experts, home care experts, emergency services, fitness, and food and nutrition programs.

Through the mWell ecosystem, doctors can serve patients beyond their geographic areas. To consult, patients simply need to download the app and sign in. After a video consultation, they will receive the doctor’s notes, medical certificate, and e-prescription. They can even have their prescribed medicines delivered right to their doorstep.

mWell promotes preventive healthcare by offering specialized fitness and nutrition programs designed by experts. It also features an mWellness Score developed by data scientists, which measures physical health based on a user’s activities such as exercise, light activity, steps, and sleep.

In addition to its product features, mWell has also launched innovative initiatives for both patients and doctors. For example, it organized the biggest nationwide digital medical mission, mWellness Day, where Filipinos can consult for free with hundreds of volunteer doctors and mind health experts.

To make consultations more affordable, mWell offers telemedicine through a sachet health pass called the Healthsavers Plan, priced at P399, which comes with one consultation and free accident insurance worth P20,000. This may also be sent as a gift to loved ones and friends, allowing mWell app users to easily promote good health.

Breaking barriers in digital healthcare, mWell has made the Healthsavers Plan available globally to over 10 million Filipino migrant workers who sacrifice being away from their families. They may easily send their families the health pass as a gift and allow them to conveniently consult with mWell partner-doctors.

mWell is the only healthcare app among the convenor organizations and supporting companies in the GoDigitalPilipinas movement which advocates digitalization initiatives to empower Filipinos through technology.
