Built to serve with compassion and purpose, Pampanga Provincial Hospital Clark stands as a lifeline for indigent patients and hardworking Kapampangans facing the rising cost of healthcare.

Governor Lilia Pineda shared that the hospital was designed primarily to support those who cannot afford expensive medical care, with 70 percent of its services dedicated to underprivileged patients. The facility also aims to protect minimum-wage earners in Clark by ensuring they have access to quality healthcare without the fear of overwhelming expenses. Through the province’s zero-balance billing policy, patients can receive medical treatment with dignity and without financial burden.

The ₱601.74-million hospital was made possible through the collaboration of the Provincial Government of Pampanga, the Department of Health (DOH), the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), and the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA). Additional funding from the Office of the President and the provincial government helped equip the hospital with advanced medical systems and modern diagnostic technology.

With a 143-bed capacity, the hospital offers services comparable to private institutions while remaining accessible to low-income families. It features specialized units such as the ICU and NICU, along with OB-GYNE, laboratory, radiology, cardiovascular, pulmonary, dental, and dietary services. The facility is also equipped with modern machines including CT scan, X-ray, endoscopy, and mammogram equipment, and is currently applying for PhilHealth YAKAP accreditation.
