Historical edition — hospital establishment (21 June 1963). This page preserves the original Act establishing the Ballesteros Emergency Hospital and its fiscal year 1964 appropriation. Section 2 follows the Supreme Court E-Library text, which reads "Thereafter." This page does not establish the hospital's present administration, name or funding. Do not confuse this Republic Act No. 3573 with Act No. 3573, the communicable-disease reporting law expressly repealed by R.A. No. 11332, Section 14.
