1,500 Jobs Available for US Optum medical BPO in PH

Where and How to apply for Optum jobs in the Philippines?

President Ferdinand Marcos's state visit to the United States of America has been very productive as he managed to get more US firms to invest in the Philippines. President Marcos welcomed Optum’s medical BPO investment, which is set to employ some 1,500 Filipinos.

This will open another opportunity for our Healthcare workers to get hired locally by a US firm. 

According to the report from PCO, American healthcare services provider Optum will invest some P800 million in medical business process outsourcing (BPO) in the Philippines which would generate around 1,500 jobs.

Earlier this year, Optum met with the Board of Investments (BOI) to discuss details of their planned new project in Davao and queries on the importation of equipment.

Since 2011, UHG/Optum has invested PHP 5.1 billion in capital expenditure in operating four sites in Taguig, Muntinlupa, Quezon City, and Cebu City.

UHG’s Optum business in the country provides a broad range of healthcare information management services, including clinical, revenue cycle management, pharmacy services and benefit management, payment integrity, quality & risk adjustment, technology, and other services delivered across voice, non-voice and blended processes.

Joining President Marcos in the meeting were former President and now Senior Deputy Speaker Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Speaker Martin Romualdez, Trade Secretary Alfredo E. Pascual, Finance Secretary Benjamin E. Diokno, Special Assistant to the President Secretary Antonio Ernesto Lagdameo Jr., PH Ambassador to the United States Jose Manuel G. Romualdez, and Trade Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo.

John Prince, president and COO of Optum, said the firm is committed to the Philippines and lauded the “strategic partnership that we have for a very long time.”

“I’m a really big believer that great things happen to great teams and we have a great team in the Philippines,” said Prince, adding that the investment is part of the company’s efforts to broaden its operations.
