MANILA, Philippines - MediCard members can take advantage of a 20-percent discount on Lifeline’s Driver on Call service, an innovative service that gives motorists a safer and more convenient way to get home should their ability to drive become compromised by intoxication, medication, illness or other causes.
“There have been moments when people feel unfit to drive yet still do so for fear of leaving their car overnight in a place where theft, damage, towing or steep parking fees are an issue. With the special discount for MediCard members on Driver on Call, we aim to promote among our members safer roads and highways by offering them professional, skilled drivers that are available 24/7,” says Dr. Nicky S. Montoya, president, MediCard Philippines, Inc.
Driver on Call is available to both members and non-members of Lifeline or MediCard. Once a call is received, Lifeline dispatches a company vehicle with two drivers: Driver number 1 drives the client’s vehicle, with the client as passenger and driver number 2 follows behind them in the Lifeline vehicle to ensure safety and collect driver number 1 after the job is completed.
To book a driver, dial Lifeline’s hotline 16-911 or 839-2520 to 30 and 0917-5416911 30 minutes in advance. A P500 fee per trip within Metro Manila, paid after the service, will be collected.
The discount is valid until July 17, 2013. To know more about Driver on Call, call 839-2014 or 839-2520–30 local 914.
