The Philippines has established its first Bagong Urgent Care and Ambulatory Service (BUCAS) centre at the Jose B. Lingad Memorial General Hospital (JBLMGH) in Pampanga.

The new centre provides different healthcare services including ambulatory and urgent care surgeries, family medicine, paediatric care, on-site pharmacies, and laboratory services.
