Living with HIV in the Philippines: Email 491: Wants to Transfer Hubs

Naka register po ako sa RITM Alabang as hiv positive. Nakatira po ako sa Makati. Pwede po ba magpalipat ng center na mas malapit sa lugar ko na may free cd4 and arv. Thanks

POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE

Hi there.

Thank you for your email.

You can transfer hubs. No hub will prevent you from doing this. Of course you need to know where you are transferring and what services they can offer you.

There is only one HIV/AIDS Hub in Makati. It is in Makati Medical Center. It is a private hub, thus all consultation and laboratory tests including the CD4 are not free. Only the ARV's are free there, like in all HIV/AIDS Treatment Hubs.

If you still want to transfer there, you need to pull out all your records from RITM-ARG for transfer. This is required by all hubs for continuance of care.

I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.

Stay healthy,

Pozziepinoy
