CAVITE MEDICAL CENTER BEGINS NEW ERA FOLLOWING INTEGRATION INTO CARD MRI HEALTHCARE NETWORK

CAVITE CITY, CAVITE — A new chapter is unfolding for Cavite Medical Center (CMC) as it officially transitions to new leadership under CARD Mutually Reinforcing Institutions (CARD MRI), marking a renewed commitment to delivering accessible and quality healthcare services to communities across the province.

The hospital formally introduced its new management team and newly elected Board of Directors during a town hall meeting on September 7, 2026, attended by hospital executives, partner representatives, doctors, healthcare workers, and administrative personnel.

Now celebrating 54 years of service since its establishment in September 1972, CMC is entering a new phase of development following its acquisition by CARD MRI. The institution is now headed by President Dr. Gil Mikhail Llanto, while CARD MRI Founder and Chair Emeritus Dr. Jaime Aristotle B. Alip assumes the role of Board Chairman.

Under the new organizational structure, CMC has become part of CARD Care Network Inc. (CCNI), the healthcare division of CARD MRI that oversees its growing network of medical facilities and healthcare services.

The integration aims to combine CMC’s decades-long experience in providing medical care with CARD MRI’s extensive background in community development, advancing a common goal of making quality healthcare more accessible and affordable to Filipino families.

Dr. Llanto expressed the new management’s commitment to preserving the hospital’s legacy while expanding its capacity to serve the healthcare needs of Cavite residents.

“For years, CMC has been a hospital Cavite families could count on. We are honored to inherit its legacy of compassionate care, especially for those who need it most,” he said.

He further emphasized that the partnership with CARD Care Network would open more opportunities to strengthen healthcare delivery and extend medical services to a wider number of communities.

Beyond changes in leadership and management, the town hall meeting also highlighted initiatives focused on employee welfare. These include improved employee benefits, workplace engagement activities, and professional development programs designed to support the personal and career growth of hospital personnel.

Meanwhile, Dr. Alip underscored that the transition goes beyond organizational changes, stressing the importance of preserving CMC’s long-standing dedication to serving the public.

“This new chapter of CMC is about continuity of service and a deeper purpose. We honor the 54 years of CMC’s compassionate care, and we will continue its service of delivering high-quality healthcare, now with the shared mission of poverty eradication with CARD MRI and bringing accessible healthcare to the community,” he said.

With its inclusion in the CARD Care Network, Cavite Medical Center aims to further improve its healthcare capabilities, strengthen patient-centered services, and sustain its mission of providing compassionate medical care to the people of Cavite.
