In order to institutionalize newborn screening nationwide, Republic Act 9288, commonly known as the Newborn Screening Act of 2004, was passed on April 7, 2004.
Early diagnosis and treatment of congenital abnormalities in infants is the goal of APMC-A Newborn Screening Program. As a result, we make sure that every baby has to undergo newborn screening for a number of heritable and congenital disorders that may result in mental retardation and major health issues.
We provide this screening test to detect possible health issues soon after birth to guarantee prompt intervention. With utmost care, our highly skilled team performs this test to give parents important information about the health of their infant. For your children to have the best start in life, our Newborn Screening Unit is essential.
