Hello Patrick,
I think you should go to www.jdrf.org  It is the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation website.  You might be able to find some answers.  I do not know  the medical plans in the Philippines but I hope the website can help you.

Hi Patrick. I'm a Diabetes Nurse Educator based in the Philippines. I know of one community-based diabetes project at Pototan, Iloilo. It is called the Diabetes Resource Center. You may want to contact them. I'll be glad to coordinate with you. E-mail me at ***@****
