Strategically positioned at TMC Iloilo Ambulatory Care Center, SARA is the latest addition to TMC Iloilo’s commitment to exceptional outpatient care aimed at providing convenience and efficiency.

This innovative approach ensures a seamless and convenient process for patients to obtain approval for their Letter of Authorization.
