“As a charter, HB 10697 provides  for a range of powers, mandates and scope of services, on delivering health services to older adult patients, ranging from and including  training of health professionals. Establishment of and technical assistance to geriatric specialty centers nationwide and setting standards on geriatric health care,” ang pagbabahagi ng namumuno sa House Special Committee on Senior Citizens.

Itatag ang NCGH mula sa kasalukuyang Geriatric Unit ng Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center.
