The Department of Health Negros Island Region Center for Health Development (DOH NIR CHD) and Corazon Locsin Montelibano Memorial Regional Hospital hosted the Visayas-Mindanao 1st semester management review Sept. 1-3 in Bacolod City.
The three-day event brought together Department of Health (DOH) executives, medical center chiefs, and regional leaders to discuss pressing challenges, performance targets, and innovations shaping the Visayas and Mindanao public health.
DOH key officials, including undersecretaries Farwa Hombre, Atty. Emmie Liza Perez-Chiong, and Mary Ann Maestral also visited the CLMMRH for an onsite hospital tour and dialogue with management.

They discussed critical issues that require immediate responses to strengthen the hospital’s capacity to deliver services to Negrenses, the CLMMRH said in a press release Sept. 4.
Discussions on Day 2 centered on the organizational performance commitment review, where hospital leaders presented their achievements, assessed unmet targets, and presented action plans to improve service delivery.
The Visayas-Mindanao Management Review 2025 not only strengthened collaboration among DOH hospitals but also reinforced commitments, renewed partnerships, and the shared vision of advancing healthcare systems for the people of Visayas and Mindanao. ||
