OUTPUT
*Sector supplement in nal version This report is limited to indicators that are relevant to MDHs operations as a hospital and have measurable outcomes. Other GRI indicators are expected to be added in succeeding sustainability reports. Moreover, in this initial undertaking, MDH has included self-declared indicators not found in the GRI guidelines, as determined by the Manila Doctors Hospital Sustainability Reporting Committee (MDH SRC). The said indicators are used to emphasize salient points and information specically generated by health care institutions and centers. MDH has identied 22 indicators by which its programs are measured in the reporting period of January 2011 to December 2011. The topics embrace the Hospitals mission, goals, and core values, which are of interest to both internal and external stakeholders. Internal stakeholders provided the largest percentage of inputs. However, a systematic approach to include input from external stakeholders can be expected in the future, which will allow the Hospital to better understand and anticipate their interests and expectations. The MBFI is mentioned several times in this report, as it is MDHs parent corporation. The Foundation likewise provides funds for many of the Hospitals CSR activities. The MDH SRC was created in February 2010. It is made up of individuals from different units of the Hospital, as well as representatives from its parent organization, the MBFI. Several meetings were convened to discuss the importance of sustainability reporting and to decide on the materiality of the indicators to be included in the report, as well as the manner of reporting. Existing data on the Hospital was gathered by the Committee Members and collated by the Committee Secretariat. Upon review of the materials, the SRC reconvened to arrange the storyline and theme of the report. The drafts were then presented to the Senior Management Team and the Management Committee of the Hospital for comments and suggestions. The nal paper was completed in November 2012. Clarications regarding this report may be addressed to the Corporate and Strategic Planning Ofce, Executive Ofces, Manila Doctors Hospital at telephone number (632) 524-30-11 local 3772 or by sending an email to src@maniladoctors.com.ph.
OUTPUT
MDH promotes the cause of sustainable development to all immediate stakeholders of the Hospital, including management, doctors, employees and personnel, patients and their relatives, and even accredited suppliers.

A countrys future rests on its citizenry. The health of a populace is part of the common welfarewhen a nations people are incapacitated by poor health, its productivity is lessened, and its future prospects dim. This is the reason behind the major investment made by the Metrobank Foundation Inc. (MBFI) in MDH. The controlling interest in MDH has been owned by MBFI since 1979. MBFIs funding and direction empowered MDH to develop and modernize its facilities, ensuring world-class care within the Filipinos reach. The direction for MDHs corporate and CSR activities has been derived from the leadership of Metrobank Group Chairman Dr. George S.K. Ty.
MDH Today
Over the past 55 years, each MDH medical and support department has undertaken continuous development initiatives. This secured MDHs reputation in both social and nancial aspects as one of the top ve hospitals in Metro Manila and one of the topof-mind hospitals in the Manila area. In terms of administration, MDH has three (3) directorates and nine (9) divisions, which are complemented by 13 accredited residency and fellowship programs. Annually, an average of at least 140 fellows, residents, and interns are active in MDHs various medical departments for training. MDH started with a single ve-storey building in 1956. At present, the Hospital has grown into a formidable medical complex made up of: The Doa Salustiana Medical Tower I (formerly Medical Arts Center), an eight-storey building housing the clinics of the physicians who practice in the Hospital; The five-storey Doa Salustiana Medical Tower II, which contains additional physicians clinics, ancillary services, and parking spaces; The Norberto Ty Medical Tower, a 12-storey building built in 1989 which provided more rooms for patients and more space for ancillary and support services; The five-storey Ancillary Services Center, completed in 2004, which houses the Industrial Medical Services Department, Finance Division, Dormitory and Chapel. MDH has undertaken a rotating series of major renovations to its facilities from 2009 onwards, starting with the operating, emergency, and delivery rooms. MDH also funded the construction of a state-of-the-art cardiac catheterization laboratory in 2009.

As a contributor to the countrys economic cycle, MDH provides jobs to qualified and skilled workers.
The Aquino Health Agenda, which aims for the attainment of Universal Health Care in the Philippines, was laid out in DOH Administrative Order No. 2010-0036 and has 3 main thrusts: nancial risk protection, improved access to quality hospitals and healthcare facilities, and the attainment of health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).2 The rst thrust of ensuring nancial risk protection will entail expanding both coverage and benet delivery under the National Health Insurance Program under PhilHealth. As of the end of 2011, PhilHealth had 78.39 million members and dependents, or 82% of the projected population for 2011 and had made benet payments amounting to Php 34.9 billion. The second thrust of improving access to quality hospitals and healthcare facilities is directed towards the improvement of government-owned and operated hospitals and facilities. The third thrust of attaining health-related MDGs likewise is directed towards the improvement of public health programs.

3 A Public-Private Partnership (PPP) has the following elements: a contractual agreement between the public sector and private sector, shared risks and resources, value for money (VfM), outcome orientation, and acceleration of the infrastructure provision and faster implementation. Traditionally, PPPs have been focused on infrastructure but now include other non-traditional infrastructure sectors such as education, health, and agriculture. The national government however is promoting PPPs as part of President Benigno S. Aquino IIIs Social Contract with the People.

Management Actions at MDH MDH has always been compliant with all national and local government and statutory laws and regulations. MDH makes sure that licenses and certications from the Department of Health, Philippine Health Insurance Corporation, and other regulatory agencies such as the Department of Environment and Natural Resources are updated. MDH has also forged a partnership with the Professional Regulation Commission to ensure the compliance of its healthcare providers with the rules and regulations regarding the practice of their professions. Proper tax remittance at the Bureau of Internal Revenue is made on time. The National Labor Code is strictly followed.
Security
The Security Service patrols MDH for security risks such as property loss and theft through preventive measures and collaboration with the local community. The Hospitals collaboration with the Manila Police District and its membership in the Good Neighbors Initiative is a reection of its commitment to contributing to the safety and security of the local community.4
The globalization of the medical industry has brought about tight competition among hospitals. MDH proved its commitment to provide holistic, quality and safe patient care when it partnered with Accreditation Canada International (ACI) and likewise received ACI accreditation on December 17, 2010. The ACI accreditation opened the window for the Hospital to become a center of wellness and healing for international patients, proving that it welcomes the new era of borderless medicine and that it is committed to pursuing medical tourism as a revenue source. As one of the rst hospitals to be given accreditation by the Department of Tourism, MDH continues to improve its facilities and value for money services through the Hospitals continual improvement programs and acquisition of top-of-the line equipment and latest technology.
Employee Turnover
MDH partners with nursing and medical schools as well as institutions offering allied medical courses to guarantee sources for manpower pooling. Human resource programs covering career development, succession planning, and empowerment and employee recognition are in place. Staff rotation is done to ensure their well-roundedness and to develop their skills so that they may assume different roles within the organization. As MDH is a service-based organization, quality of supply is of utmost importance to the organization. To guarantee that only the best suppliers are selected and accredited, the Hospital requires all its suppliers to undergo an MDH-initiated accreditation process which includes full disclosure of their business and nancial capability. As patients and their relatives have become vigilant and discriminating when it comes to their health practices and needs, MDH has a multi-disciplinary Ethics Committee that ensures the compliance of all stakeholders to the highest standards of practice and behavior. The medical community undertakes a regular review of management and procedures to assess and continuously improve the medical services served. An in-house legal counsel is engaged to answer queries and assist in decisions with legal implications.

Leadership
MDH fosters good governance and effective leadership by providing the necessary structures and processes to sustain patient safety and quality improvement. The leadership responsibilities are well-dened and constantly evaluated. The Hospital is guided by a well-communicated and practiced vision, corporate objectives, quality policy, and core values, which are evaluated semi-annually in terms of relevance and achievement. It has a well-documented performance review and planning process with a strategic plan that was formulated in 2011. The said planning process, which shall guide MDH until 2013, is supported by an operational plan and a balanced scorecard properly cascaded to monitor expected outcomes. MDH is supported by a system of nancial planning and control. It utilizes a bottom up budgeting process that encourages unit heads to be nancially accountable. Periodic reporting is made in various levels. The Hospital is governed by a Board of Directors (the highest governance body) led by a Chairman, the President, two Senior Vice Presidents, the Hospital Director, and three Directors (one for each directorate). The Board of Directors is led by a Chairman who is not an executive ofcer. The following committees support the governance structure at various levels: Executive Committee (ExCom), Management Committee (ManCom), and the Senior Management Team. There are 10 members in the Board of Directors; six are independent/non-executive members. There are two representatives who are members of the Medical Staff Association, conferred and endorsed by a Nominations Committee. It is chaired by a highly competent and experienced executive. The Internal Auditor reports to the Board of Directors. The three directorates cover the three major areas of the Hospitals: the Finance Directorate, Administrative Directorate, and the Medical Directorate. The Finance Directorate oversees the nancial performance of the entire Hospital and ensures that proper monitoring and control systems are in place. The Administrative Directorate takes care of the support operations of the Hospital. It also oversees the Hospitals Business Development Division as well as the outsourced operations of the Housekeeping and Linen Service and Security. The Medical Directorate includes the Medical Services Division and the Allied Medical Services Division. It oversees the medical services offered by the Hospital and the activities and services of doctors and allied health professionals at MDH. Shareholders and employees provide recommendations or seek direction from the highest governance body. With the help of data culled from surveys and consultations, these recommendations and directions are implemented prior to every annual planning conference. A process of collaboration, communication, and coordination is done in each unit of the Hospital. Employees are represented by their corresponding division heads during executive meetings and their opinions and comments are taken into consideration.
Remuneration
The remuneration for members of the highest governance body, executives, and senior managers is determined by the Board of Directors. Aside from salaries and performance incentives, they are also entitled to hospital and retirement benets and other relevant perks such as car plans and business travel allowances. Their compensation is based on effectiveness, experience, knowledge, and performance.
Conicts of Interest
The MDH Code of Ethics is the guiding principle of the highest governance body in performing its varied tasks and is in accordance with the requirements of Accreditation Canada International. To minimize conicts of interests, transparency is practiced. Every resolution created is arrived at from an impartial and documented majority decision. Third party evaluation is employed through periodic external audits. The MDH nancial statement is audited by Sycip, Gorres & Velayo and Co., a highly reputable independent auditing rm. The Committee on Purchasing, Investment, and Contracts (COPIC) follows a bidding process for the procurement and leasehold. The Committee likewise reviews and evaluates requests for medical equipment valued at more than Php 250,000. These are thereafter validated by the Finance Directorate.
22 Sustainability 2011
Stakeholder Engagement
MDH engages its stakeholders because it aims to build relationships with those who are affected by the Hospitals services, actions, and success. Furthermore, the Hospital realizes that the input of its stakeholders can help improve the Hospitals plans, practices, and processes. A consultative and participative approach was employed in the preparation of this report. MDH has both internal and external stakeholders. Internal stakeholders are the following: employees, doctors, medical trainees, outsourced personnel, and stockholders. External stakeholders are comprised of the patients and their relatives, partners, vendors, communities and schools, HMOs and corporate guarantors, accrediting bodies, and government agencies.

Economic Performance
Management Approach
MDHs goal is to achieve nancial viability through protable growth of its normal operations and other new sources of revenue. It is the Hospitals policy to ensure that nancial resources are effectively and efciently managed. This is the responsibility of MDHs Top Management. In order to continuously improve its economic performance, MDH started a program of thorough cost analysis of key units to determine the efciency of operations and come up with competitive pricing of services. The key strategies for implementing policies in 2011 included the annual unit planning and budgeting workshop for unit heads and cost review of its centers. The major success in 2011 was the strengthening of the Hospitals Financial Management System and the reinforced training and development program of its people. This prepared the Hospital in the bottomup budgeting process it implemented in 2011. The gross revenue in 2011 posted a 5.3% increase. New sources of revenue included new packages, tests, and procedures. The target 9% of net income over equity, or the return on equity, was achieved at 28%. Being a hospital, MDH focuses on the number of clients (patients) in terms of admission which showed an increase compared to the previous year. The Hospital exceeded its bed occupancy target of 70%. The Hospital had good control of its expenses and maintained efcient use of its resources. It was able to prevent accounts receivables by monitoring the number of admitted patients with account receivables (5% in 2011). It maintained an effective and efcient accounting system with no reported material and asset losses.
Economic impact
MDH, being a tertiary hospital, is a vital contributor to public health. The infrastructure it has built to expand its services, including the purchase of various equipment, as well as employment opportunities, payment of government dues, play a big role in the market economy. MDH generates economic contributions from its business activities. MDHs 2011 economic impact is accounted for in the table below.

The training expenditures for the year are a combination of actual costs and cost savings. A number of trainings and seminars conducted in the Hospital engaged external resources. These programs had training fees or program fees. They account for about half of the total per capita cost of training for employees. On the other hand, the Hospital also had trainings that were conducted in-house where the training fees or program fees were waived or sponsored. This is due mainly to the formation of the MDH Trainers Core, a pool of hospital employees that serve as both internal training resources and technical experts. Their involvement in training has helped the Hospital bring training expenditures down, accounting for about 40% to 45% of the total training per capita costs for the year. The organization of the Trainers Core has also helped the Hospital in providing additional competencies in training, coaching, and mentoring for its employees, affording them the opportunity to learn and practice these competencies during the year. The Quality Management Office (QMO) also conducts trainings for quality audit, which are essential for propelling competence of staff in internal quality audit.

It is also the Hospitals policy to pursue social responsibility programs for the community, which are led by its Corporate and Social Responsibility Department and participated in by hospital staff. Both the Human Resource Division and the Corporate and Social Responsibility Department closely monitor the social performance of the Hospital. MDH has achieved its stafng standard and professional targets, provided multiple training programs for its employees, and allowed other opportunities for career enhancement.

Workforce alignment MDH ensures that the ofcers and workforce are aligned with the Hospitals vision and mission and management track. At the onset, the non-migration turnover rate for non-nursing and non-Allied Medical Services Division technical staff was 5%, which went up to 7.92% by year end. For AMSD technical staff, the non-migration turnover rate was initially 10% which was brought down to 7.30%. For the Hospitals nursing staff, the non-migration turnover rate was 9% at the beginning of the year but was brought down to 3.07%. The Hospital also provides livelihood programs for its employee dependents. An entrepreneurship seminar was also conducted for employees and their dependents.
Turnover With the high demand for Filipino health workers overseas, recruiting and retaining qualified talents has been a constant challenge for the health industry. Motivated by their desire to provide a better future for their families, Filipino health workers continue to seek better employment opportunities abroad.

Training programs
MDH provides its ofcers and workforce training programs based on identied training needs. As the Trainings were concluded in 2011, another Training Needs Survey and Analysis was conducted in the last quarter of 2011. A hospital-wide training program was achieved and implemented in February 2011, with one training program per division. Ninetysix percent (96%) of the total number of units and 96% (or 822) of the non-supervisory staff members of the medical directorate have participated in competency-based trainings (up from at least 85% at the onset). At least 73% of all administrative ofcers participated in one management training program. At least 24% of all frontline employees (NSD inpatient nurses, AMSD, and Emergency Room) have participated in the hospitals behavioral training sessions. 2011 Training Man-hours per Employee

Career Development MDH believes that career development is effective only when management and staff are co-responsible for advancement. This is the foundation of effective communication, execution, and performance monitoring. Thus, MDH management has implemented several mechanisms to address this. One mechanism utilized is the formal performance review and evaluation, and career discussions included in the Commitments and Competency Performance Management and Evaluation System (C2PMES). This is an annual performance monitoring and evaluation process undertaken by each employee of the Hospital usually during the Startof-Year, Mid-Year and Year-End. All employees in MDH have undergone a formal performance review and appraisal in 2011 as a requirement by the Hospital for advancement and salary increases. The C2PMES process allows the supervisor and subordinate to discuss: Goal Setting as related to the annual goals and targets Mid-Year Performance Monitoring and Review Year-End Performance Review and Rating These reviews provide an opportunity to give and receive constructive feedback and to discuss career options and development interventions for the employee. Periodic and day-to-day feedback given by unit heads and supervisors to their staff, from staff to staff and vice-versa, is another mechanism used. In their daily activities, there are numerous opportunities to give feedback due to the way the staff is regularly scheduled. This is done in the simplest, quickest way possible giving both positive reinforcement and constructive feedback about specic items/jobs they did, e.g. Good work on that presentation! or Great job with that patient! Periodic performance feedback requiring more time and effort is usually done when performance is below expectations. There are a number of contact sessions between the supervisor and subordinate to discuss performance concerns such as attendance issues, inappropriateness, or misbehavior concerns, etc. This is essentially a performance improvement counseling session, in which the staff and his supervisor discuss the causes of poor performance and the possible ways to improve performance. Career development programs have been implemented for the HRD and selected units. The goal was achieved and included the results of the Position Analysis, which was contiguous with the Succession Planning Program. At least 15% of medical consultants in active practice have attended two continuing medical education conferences. The implementation of a succession planning system in selected departments was achieved. Position analysis was likewise done and a program is already in place. There is one empowerment program in place geared for the needs of the employees.
Employee Welfare
Motivation and contentment MDH aims to develop motivated and contented ofcers and workforce. Absenteeism and tardiness has been reduced from 3% and 8% at the beginning of the year to 2.90% and 5.96%, respectively. Overall staff satisfaction is high with around 90% of all employees, excluding nonsalaried doctors, reporting that they were satised in their workplace. The Hospitals employees have also received commendations, as well as rewards and recognition for their excellent service. MDH has received at least 927 external commendations, with 26% of its units receiving external commendation letters. The Hospital also has the MDH Awards for Excellence and MDH Service Awards in place to give due recognition to excellent employees. Health and Safety for Employees/ Health Promotion for Employees All employees undergo a mandated annual physical examination free of charge. The Hospitals inuenza vaccination program also annually provides free inuenza vaccinations for its employees. New employees participate in a safety orientation program as part of their initial hospital orientation. Furthermore, the Hospital encourages its employees participation in its annual re, earthquake, and disaster preparedness seminars and exercises. Remuneration and Benets The Hospital complies with all government mandated remunerations and benets such as PhilHealth, Home Development Mutual Fund (more commonly known as PAGIBIG fund), and Social Security System (SSS). Salaries of employees are very competitive with the industry standard. Hospitalization for employees and dependents and medicine allowance are provided. Yearly salary increase, allowances for uniform and meals, vacation and sick leave, hazard pay, death benet, and free and discounted dental services are also provided for by the Hospital. Rewards and Recognition As a natural consequence of the Hospitals emphasis on performance excellence, there are rewards and recognition programs in place for various levels of the hospital. MDH has several institutional rewards and recognition programs: The Employee Service Award recognizes longevity and loyalty in service of employees to MDH. The Valued Time Award recognizes perfect attendance of any staff for the year. The MDH Awards for Excellence recognizes efforts by both medical and non-medical staff earning them distinction for their work. The MDH Service Excellence Awards recognizes outstanding efforts of employees earning them distinction for providing Caring, Attentive, Responsive, Enthusiastic, and Sincere Customer Service. Aside from this, recognition programs done at the initiative of the local divisions and departments exist. All recognition programs come with rewards ranging from certicates to plaques, and/or tokens to cash rewards.
Labor Relations MDH has a healthy respect for unionism as a partner in pushing forward the vision of the Hospital. Regular meetings of the MDH Employees Association (MDHEA)supported by activities jointly managed by the hospitalhelp cultivate a harmonious relationship and maintain industrial peace. The rights of the union membership are protected under the Collective Bargaining Agreement which was renewed in 2011. As of end of December 2011, total union membership was 678 employees or 72% of the total workforce. Human Rights In an industry where those that deliver the services are expected to posses a high level and degree of education, training, and maturity to be able to make sound judgments and decisions, under no circumstances is child labor used in any of the services provided by the Hospital. This is in accordance with Republic Act 9231, An Act providing for the elimination of the worst forms of child labor and affording stronger protection for the working child, amending for this purpose Republic Act, No. 7610, as amended, otherwise known as the Special Protection of Children Against Child Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act.
Community
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is one of the ve perspectives of the MDH Balanced Scorecard with a goal of providing excellent corporate social responsibility programs. MDHin partnership with the Metrobank Foundation, Inc. initiated programs and services that address the medical needs of underprivileged patients and underserved communities. As required by law, MDH maintains 10% of the total bed capacity of the hospital for indigent patients. Over and above these responsibilities, however, MDH has a number of CSR programs, including community-based health programs, school-based health programs, in-house surgical missions, medical missions, and emergency medical outreach missions. The Corporate Social Responsibility Department (CSR)subsidizes the health care of the underprivileged patients through coordination with the Out Patient Department (OPD). An Outpatient Department for consultations is also maintained by MDH for indigent patients. Medical consultants waive their fees for both inpatients and outpatients. MBFI allocates Php 10 million annually for CSR programs. MDH itself spent Php 8 million for CSRD programs and activities.
Customers
Customer Service MDH values and monitors customer satisfaction. One method of monitoring is the Inpatient Customer Satisfaction Survey (ICSS) which is conducted monthly. The ICSS has 63 questions and uses a 7-point Likert scale. The questions are about the respondents level of satisfaction experienced in various hospital departments or areas, including the Emergency Room, Admitting Service, Doctors, Nursing Staff, Pastoral Care, Rooms/ Facilities of the Hospital, Linen and Housekeeping, Dietary Department, Laboratory, and Radiology. Where appropriate, the concerned departments are coordinated to address an expression of dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, the Patient Account Services Division (PASD) also conducts their own survey to gauge the level of satisfaction of patients regarding the service they provide. The results of both surveys are presented in a monthly Customer Care Committee meeting. When it comes to marketing communication, the Business Development Division follows protocols in terms of generating marketing tools and materials. It secures the approval of the Senior Management Team prior to releasing the materials to the general public. ACI and ISO standards are thoroughly followed when drafting marketing tools. Compliance with Public Health Policies MDH complies with international and nationally agreed health policies. Such policies include the following: Generic Medicines Act, Senior Citizens Act, Newborn Screening and Newborn Hearing Screening, Blood Program, Policy on Control of HIV from Blood Donors, Tuberculosis Directly Observed Treatment Strategy (TB-DOTS), Management of Animal Bites, and 100% Smoke-Free Environment Policy in All Health Facilities, and Patient Safety.

Environmental Performance
Management Approach
MDH is committed towards the hospital-wide implementation of plans and programs that contribute to the preservation of the environment. It encourages adoption of environment preservation initiatives and best practices by all units of the hospital. Through the Environment Committee (ENVICOM) chaired by the Facilities Management Department Head, the Hospitals over-all environmental impact is monitored and managed via the implementation of various environmental initiatives, notwithstanding the Hospitals compliance to the environmental laws and the regulations set by the Department of Health, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority, among others. MDH employs a participatory approach towards attaining its environmental goals by promoting employee participation and cascading initiatives to suppliers and other stakeholders. Major environmental goals include the hospital-wide implementation of programs that are aimed at reducing solid waste and carbon emissions, the adoption of environmental initiatives and best practices by all hospital units, and the conduct of intensied drives to inuence suppliers and service providers to come up with their own contributions to environmental preservation. True to the principle of sustainability, environmental initiatives yielded signicant impacts to its triple bottom line. Initiatives to lessen operational inputs to the environment resulted in a ve percent reduction in general waste generation from 10,494 kilos in 2010 to 9,929 kilos in 2011. Said results of environmental initiatives promote operational efciency through savings, as demonstrated by the minimal increase in fresh paper consumption in 2011 despite increased hospital-wide activities. In addition, the continuous implementation of the Recyclables Program generated an additional income of Php 457,543.67 and Php 373,719.22 for the hospital in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Forty percent (40%) of these funds are allocated to CSR initiatives. Finally, the MDH environmental programs contribute to the attainment of environmental sustainability in its surrounding communities. By going beyond compliance, MDH is not only able to provide a safe hospital for its patients, but also contribute to a healthy and safe environment for all. MDH is committed towards the hospital-wide implementation of plans and programs that contribute to the preservation of the environment. It encourages adoption of environment preservation initiatives and best practices by all units of the hospital.
MDH Environment and Waste Management Committee To improve coordination, the MDH Environment and Waste Management Committee (ENVICOM), was created and instituted by the top management to encompass waste management, energy management, and the supply chain. The ENVICOM is composed of four task forces representing Supply Chain Management, Energy Management, Hazardous Waste Management, and Non-Hazardous Waste Management. The committee works closely with the Corporate Social Responsibility Department and the Infection Control Committee for its various programs and projects. The MDH Environment and Waste Management Committee (ENVICOM) aims at reducing the hospitals carbon emissions and waste and adopting environment preservation initiatives and best practices. This is done mainly through education, training, and the implementation of various initiatives and best practices. The Committee monitors its environmental and waste management programs and initiatives, such as compliance to regulatory requirements for infrastructure, smoke emission, and waste management and segregation.
Eco-Friendly Projects MDH joined the League of Corporate Foundations Environment Committee in 2007. Since then, MDH representatives have participated in its activities which include Tree Planting and Carbon Emission Pilot Measurement. MDH implemented the MDH Earth Hour project which was subsequently institutionalized. MDH is the only hospital which continually implements this program on a bi-monthly basis since it began in 2008. On the other hand, the Recyclables Committeewhich started out as part of MDHs waste management schemelater became another special project of CSR. Previously, MDH has co-organized the Recyclables Market and Wellness Camp with Metrobank Foundation, Inc. in 2007.
40 Sustainability 2011
Energy Consumption Energy Saved Through Earth Hour MDHs participation in the 2008 Earth Hour inspired the MDH Earth Hourwhere non-critical electrical equipment and lights are turned off for one hour, once every two weeks. The goal of MDH Earth Hour is to fuel awareness among hospital employees that saving the environment is as easy as switching-off lights and other electrical devices for a period of one hour. While employees are already participating in the said project, the patients are made aware that the hospital is not only after the peso savings. What is given importance is the initiative to form a solid interdepartmental team that volunteers in taking part in the switchingoff of lights even in critical areas of the hospital to reduce carbon emissions. Earth Hour is now a way of life in MDH. Besides Earth Hour, there are other environment conservation initiatives and best practices being initiated, which are a real manifestation of the dedication to help mitigate the global concern. Electricity The calculation of indirect greenhouse gas emissions by weight of electricity consumed was based on the sales invoices of electricity purchased for the same period. Total power consumed was 6,830,750 kWh, which represents the energy usage of the various units of the hospital. The total indirect greenhouse gas emission was computed as 3,067 tons.
Recyclables Program MDH initiated the Recyclables Program to streamline waste segregation and intensify collection of recyclable materials in order to reduce the volume of waste in the hospital. The ENVICOM reviews and revises the hospitals waste management policy for effective implementation of the program. The program also intends to promote and maintain a high level of awareness among employees and stakeholders for better understanding and continuous development of the best possible environmental management practices in the hospital. This is made possible through intensied information campaigns of promoting environment care and protection and the recognition of efforts and contributions of different units. Moreover, it aims to generate funds that could be used to sustain one of MDH thrusts, which is to pursue social responsibility for the underprivileged and underserved in the community. This is achieved with the participation of the Hospitals employees. They are encouraged to actively participate in the recycling program through an information campaign and recognition program. The recognition of the most active units in the recycling program has been very helpful in encouraging employees to participate. The 60/40 sharing scheme is also very effective in engaging more units and departments to participate. The income generated is used in departmental activities, such as community service, team building activities, and awards and recognition. MDH engages other stakeholders in its recycling efforts. To forge collaborations with hospital suppliers and contractors on environment and efciency improvements, the MDH ENVICOM conducts environmental awareness lectures on Global Warming, Climate Change, and Carbon Footprints to its various suppliers. The Hospital has also allied with a reliable recycler. Furthermore, the Hospital organizes inter-related events to promote environmental sustainability in the community, such as the Waste Market and Wellness Camp (which were organized in support of the Earth Day Celebration), Global Warming and Consciousness Week, and Aksyon Para Sa Kalikasan (Action for the Environment) Parade. Type of Hospital Waste Collection and Disposal Php 440,000 was generated from recyclable wastes where Php 240,000 was handed over to the units and Php 200,000 was allocated to CSRD programs. There was a steady increase in the amount of income generated from recyclables. Average Weight of Waste Collected Per Month (in Kg) 14,487 6,056
It follows that the total direct and indirect greenhouse gas emission is equal to 3,088.32 tons of carbon dioxide, or 3,068.62 tons (less the carbon emissions saved from Earth Hour). Generators and Vehicles The calculation of MDHs direct greenhouse gas emissions by weight of standby generator sets and service vehicles was based on the sales invoices of diesel fuel purchases for the period January to December 2011. The total diesel fuel consumed was 3,355 liters and 4,600 liters for the three service vehicles and four standby generators, respectively. This is equivalent to 21.32 metric tons of carbon emissions, which is down by 14% from the previous year. MDHs Share-A-Ride program saved a total of 1,937 kilometers of travel and cost of driver or Php 14,000 for the hospital in 2011. Other Energy-Saving Initiatives Aside from the MDH Earth Hour, other units not operating on a 24-hour basis were eager to participate in various environmental initiatives of the hospital. The MDH Envicom issued a poster containing Best Practices that could be applied at the employees workplace, thereby adding them as contributors in the efforts of the hospital to mitigate global warming. Total Carbon Footprint Reduction The combined undertakings resulted in a 3,748 kWh savings which can be used to supply 52 households with electricity for one month. This also translates to 1.7 metric tons of carbon emissions saved, a considerable footprint reduction.

Water Consumption MDHs total water withdrawal for the period of January to December 2011 was 226,855 cubic meters, which was calculated using the hospitals submitted invoices. For the same period, the total recycled water, mainly from excess processed water during hemodialysis reverse osmosis, was 865 cubic meters, representing 0.38% of the total water consumed by the hospital or the equivalent to a months consumption of 34 households. One best practice for water conservation as exemplied by the MDH Facilities Management Department staff is the use of drinking glasses while brushing teeth, which is also being promoted to hospital employees. This saved a total of 96 cubic meters of water for the year 2011. Another water-saving practice is the use of water removed from the main driveways fountain for cleaning purposes and watering plants. This saves a total volume of 45 cubic meters yearly. Compliance with Environmental Laws and Regulations MDH is compliant with environmental laws and regulations; therefore, there were no signicant nes and sanctions that were imposed on the Hospital. The Hospitals generators undergo preventive maintenance and have passed smoke emission testing. Hazardous wastewater is treated prior to disposal. A permit to transport Hazardous Waste was issued on August 9, 2011 which is valid for 6 months or until January 30, 2012.
