Abstract: The Multispecialty Healthcare Project in Valenzuela City addresses the challenges in the Philippine healthcare system, focusing on accessible and affordable health services. The study evaluates the effectiveness of the Valenzuela City Multispecialty Healthcare Center, a joint venture aimed at enhancing local government health services. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines qualitative and quantitative data to assess community reception, healthcare accessibility, and service delivery challenges Findings indicate a positive community response to the center’s specialized clinics and collaborations but highlight issues in accessibility and service efficiency. Key recommendations include increasing healthcare professionals, improving appointment systems, enhancing coordination, and promoting health education. These insights are valuable for policymakers, the Department of Health (DOH), and local government units (LGUs) in optimizing the center’s impact. Ultimately, the study underscores the project’s role in supporting the government’s broader objective of improving basic health services in the Philippines.
