EVEN before the Covid-19 pandemic, there has already been a growing need for easy access to affordable mental healthcare for those suffering from stress, anxiety and undiagnosed or untreated mental health conditions.

Per World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated six million Filipinos are living with depression and anxiety. That number may have grown as the pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns forced people to stay indoors for months.

Meanwhile, nine out of ten Filipinos said they had a poorer state of mental health during the first lockdowns in 2020, based on the PhilCare Community Quarantine Wellness Index. It could not be truer with rising Covid-19 cases over a year into the pandemic. Nine out of 10 also said they were afraid of a second wave of infections at the time the study was conducted.

To help address this growing concern among Filipinos, PhilCare introduces Mindscapes, a new mental health service, which was launched to give customizable and scalable programs to individuals and companies that wish to support their employees through their mental wellness journey.

Derived from the phrase “mental landscape,” which focuses on all aspects of a person’s mind and its capabilities, Mindscapes seeks to deliver the best care possible for those with mental health concerns to achieve overall well-being.

Using a tech-enabled platform, Mindscapes provides clients with convenient and secure access to mental wellness benefits to make sure that they feel safe when they seek help.

The brainchild of PhilCare President and CEO Jaeger Tanco, a known figure in the healthcare and financial services sector, Mindscapes also caters to corporate clients, offering a wide array of services that help identify and address mental health challenges in the workplace.
