Cheap medical check-up
03.22.23
How's everyone feeling lately?
The weather in the Philippines is getting more hot and cold. It's hot getting hotter as it's summer so don't forget to take care of your skin. As soon as the sun sets, a cold breeze passes by my skin! My knees ache when I wake up or am I just getting older?
Some of us might be experiencing fever or flu as the weather changes every day. I know that getting checked up by a doctor may cost plus the medicine they will prescribe that's why most of us tend to self-medicate. I am not saying that self-medication is not okay, but it's still best to consult a professional especially if you experience another or a different symptom. Let me share something that you can take advantage of without spending too much for a consultation or doctor-check up.
Do you have a GOMO sim?

If you do, have you tried to convert your mobile data allocation for an offer? Did you know that you can convert data allocation for text messages or call (non-expiry) or for other things too?
Yes! You can actually do that. You can exchange or convert it into something else like a subscription for a streaming platform like Discovery, HBOGo, Disney+, Skate park admission, and even for medical needs.
How?
1. Log in to the GOMO App
2. Check offers under the Mo Creds tab
3. Select or browse the offer that you want to avail of.
4. If your data allocation is enough for the offer, you can continue to avail of it.

I have once availed of the doctor consultation and mental health care offers through Konsulta MD app. I tried to use Konsulta MD app, when I had Covid last year. I didn't use my Gomo credits though. We paid for it via Gcash and I availed of the chat consultation as it is a bit cheaper than a video call checkup.
The chat consultation was a bit more time-consuming because it took longer for them to give more information. I was a chat support and I understand that they might also be taking 2 patients at a time and if you're talking to a professional, not all of them may have fast typing skills. Plus, they should also be quite more careful in giving out diagnoses or prescriptions. We don't want them to mix up the information with the other patients.
Using your Gomo credits is cheaper than paying in cash. How? The minimum data allocation or load that you can avail of is 30GB for 300 to 400 pesos, depending on the offer. Sometimes they have promos. For a regular check-up, it would cost about 500 pesos or more. Using your 5gb Gomo credits, you can already avail of a doctor consultation. If you'll do the math, you'll be spending less than a hundred pesos for a medical consultation/check-up. (If my math is correct hahaha!)
One more thing that I love is they are open 24/7 and you don't have to rush into a clinic or wait in line which could take 4 hours for a check-up. Just to give you an idea, most clinics or hospitals in the Philippines seem like they don't give urgency to patients. Maybe because most health professionals work overseas now for better offers and opportunities. So no wonder how our medical support fails the system.
In short, the KonsultaMD app is more convenient, more efficient (somehow), and much cheaper if you use your Gomo credits.
I also availed of the mental health care offer last 2 months ago that I haven't used yet. Once I feel the urgent need to consult a mental health professional, I will use it asap.
Don't forget to take care of yourself!

This is good. At least, it is better than going to the hospital to queue
