Dear Maria Eliza Batucan,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Nov 05, 2023 11:58:05 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for Sample Total Breakdown Cost of a Level 3 hospital.

Response to your request

As per HFDB, The Department does not require construction cost breakdown from private hospitals as part of the establishment/licensing requirements. As such, we cannot provide the requested information as it is not available. We recommend that you reach out directly to private hospitals to request for a sample construction cost breakdown.

For reference on the estimated budgetary total and unit cost to establish health facilities, you may refer to the Philippine Health Facility 2020-2040. The said plan is accessible at the official website of the Department of Health (doh.gov.ph)

We will complete the review and tell you the result within 30 calendar days from the date when we receive your review request

Thank you.
