Great news for your health! Homegrown healthtech social enterprise 1Life, Inc. has teamed up with Singapore Diagnostics (SGD) to bring free laboratory tests to 23 locations across the Philippines.

Making Healthcare Simpler for You

In just two short years, 1Life has already supported over one million patients across all 81 provinces. By using clever, AI-backed systems, they have managed to condense what used to take four separate doctor visits into just one single visit.

The team at 1Life strongly believes that everyone deserves a fair chance at a healthy life, regardless of where they live or their financial situation. As 1Life President Niño Namoco beautifully puts it: “Preventive care only works if people can actually get tested, and that has always been 1Life’s mission… When a patient can receive a comprehensive laboratory workup at no cost, that goes beyond diagnosis. That is an opportunity for a healthier life.”
