Palace supports DOH move to place list of COVID testing labs on website

By Prince Golez

Malacañang supports the initiative of the Department of Health (DOH) to publish the list of laboratories performing coronavirus (Covid-19) tests on its website.

In a virtual presser Monday, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque urged the DOH to also include the extra fees charged for certification.

“100 percent supportive po at sana ilagay din doon sa listahan kung merong extra charge ang certification para alam nila kung magkano ang kabuuang babayran for PCR test and the certification,” added Roque.

The secretary likewise asked the public to report testing laboratories charge higher prices for Covid-19 tests.

“I-report niyo sa amin kung ano yung mga private labs na mataas ang singil na gumagamit din naman ng public labs, ipagbigay alam niyo sa amin yan dahil hindi naman dapat na napakataas ng singil nila,” he said.
