It was in early 2009 that the Philippine College of Emergency Medicine
and Acute Care (PCEMAC) and the Philippine
Society of Emergency Care Physicians (PSECP)
began the process of merging into a single national
specialty society for Emergency Medicine,
with the encouragement and guidance
of the Philippine Medical Association.
A Steering Committee was organized to work
towards the merger of the PCEMAC, and after
several meetings, the Philippine College
of Emergency Medicine (PCEM) was born.
