Philhealth Branches — Membership Reactivation
Here are some tips when reactivating your Philhealth membership, based on what we recently experienced.
If you’re a former OFW who paid membership fees when Philhealth was still called Medicare, most probably your record is no longer with Philhealth. So when you want to be a member again, you will be applying as a new member.
You will use the new membership form, and you need to bring your birth certificate, your marriage certificate (so you can include your spouse as your dependent), and birth certificates (so your children will be enrolled as your dependents). Bring original and xerox copies.
If your spouse is a former Philhealth member, he/she can’t be enrolled as your dependent even if he/she has not paid his/her membership fees for more than 12 months. This was my case. I was rejected as a dependent even if I haven’t paid for more than 12 months.
What I should do, according to Philhealth, is to write a letter informing them I haven’t paid my premiums for many months and ask them to allow my husband to register me as his dependent. I hope Philhealth will address this issue in the coming months, so this type of letter is not needed.
Anyway, I wrote the letter, telling them I’m already inactive, and now I’m a dependent of my husband, who’s a former OFW and now an Individually Paying Member.

gud am .. tanong ko lang po .. kung sakali po bang kumuha ako ng philhealth para sa trabaho .. pag nag pa member po ba kami eh mag babayad kagad kami at mag kano po ang bayad? oh… ikakaltas po ng kompanyang papasukan ko ung mga monthly? salamat po !!para pag punta ko po sa malate … makapag dala po ako ng pera .. thaks po ulit
Hi Shiena, Pag nasa company ka, ikakaltas sa sahod ang philhealth. 100 pesos per month ang kaltas. Pag ikaw ay voluntary member, 100 per month pa rin, pero babayaran mo agad yong 3 months (300).
anu po bang pdeng dalhin na requirements?
Kung aaply ka na voluntary member, magdala ka ng 300 pesos para sa unang 3-month payment mo. Bring birth certificate or marriage certificate para masali ang mga dependents mo. Remember also your TIN and SSS or GSIS numbers, kasi kelangan mo sa pag-fill-up ng form. Siempre, dalhin mo na rin mga IDs mo. Paki-share naman dito kapag natapos ka na at may naiba sa processing. Thanks, Jhonn.
gd noon po.. panu po ba kumuha ng philheath number?at anu ang requirements?panu po pala pag walang tin number di ba pwede?panu po pala pag my anak na tapos d pa kasal sa partner mo?may makuha b na benifits yong bata?tnx poh
gud noon po.. ask po ako.. ma’am/sir, gusto ko po sana malaman ang philhealth number ko..natatandaan ko po na nag-aply na ako before last april 2007,,the problem is i cant remember my philhealth number, matagal napo kasi me hindi nagkawork. and now sa inaplayan ko eh, kailangan ng philhealth.. kaya po ako nag-online ngaun.. tanx po
ma’am paki send nman po sa akin if meron na ako philhealth number sa aking e-mail.. maraming salamat po..
Hi gwendilen, kelangang pumunta ka sa any branch ng philhealth para makuha # mo. maghanda ka na rin ng mga kelangang info baka lang you need to re-apply for membership. Visit the philhealth site at http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/members/employed/bmember.htm for more info. Ang example ng new membership application ay nandito sa http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/forms/membership/m1a.pdf.
Hi josue, para maging philhealth member o para may philhealth #, punta ka sa any branch of philhealth. Dalhin mo lang yong birth certificate ng anak mo, okay na, kahit di kasal. Yong sa TIN, kung di ka pa naging employee kahit kelan, puede siguro, ilagay mo N.A. sa TIN#, pero di ako sure ha. Pero kumuha ka na lang TIN # mo online, para no problem. Go to https://ereg.bir.gov.ph/ereg/welcome.do. Pero, dapat sure ka na wala ka pang TIN# dati. Illegal ang more than one TIN#. Libre ang online TIN # application for Local Employees. Ang makuha mong TIN# dito ay permanent, ito na yong TIN# mo lifetime.
good day po..tanong ko lang po kung pwede po ba akong makakuha ng philhealth id kahit wala pa akong hulog..maraming salamat po..sana po masagot nyo ang katanungan ko..
how would i know kung may philhealth number na ko?
Hi Jen, ibinibigay naman yong Philhealth number ng employer sa employees. Kasi parang service nila sa employees nila. Ewan lang kung good employers lang. I got kasi my number thru the HR of my former employer. Kung self-employed ka at nag-member ka noong wala pang Philhealth Nos., visit na lang a branch. For new members, the numbers are given as the applications are approved.
ask ko lang po kung ok lang bang maging philhealth member as voluntary member?
Hi Mayette, Yes. Voluntary or Individually Paying Member or Self-employed Member. Just bring IDs, birth certificate (for child dependents) and marriage cert (for spouse as dependent). Note down also your SSS and TIN nos. if you have, kasi kelangan sa pag-fill-up ng form, plus 300 pesos for your first quarterly payment
mam,
confirm ko lang po yung number ko kasi naka fill up na po ako nung nag work po ako sa unilever wala po kasi ang philhealth number ko.. ang tagal na po kasi wala pa 1 year na po ako naghihintay sa number ko hinuhulugan ko naman po siya
Hi John, punta ka na lang sa Philhealth branch na malapit sa iyo para makuha mo ang number mo at para makakuha ka pa ng copy ng Member Data Form mo. Bring IDs.
gud day sa lahat, ask ko lang kung pwede mag update ng dependent kahit saang branch, tanks
Hi Ranil, palagay ko, yes, kasi networked naman sila. Just bring the needed birth cert or marriage cert and your IDs.
gud pm!san po ba pwedeng kumuha ng MDR.at ilang months dpat para mkakuha ng refund?thanks
gud pm!san po ba pwedeng kumuha ng mdr?at ilang months ang previous para mkakuha ng refund?thanks
Hi Elmar, i-download mo dito http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/forms/membership/m1b.pdf ang MDR if you’re voluntarily paying as a member, o kaya go to any Philhealth branch. If you’re employed, you can ask a form from your HR. Ang refund usually three months nakukuha, kaya dapat i-submit ang Philhealth form bago magbayad sa hospital para madeduct agad ang Philhealth benefits, para no need to wait for refund.
hi. gud pm. just wanna ask po kung san ko po pd ituloy yung bayad ko ng philhealth…kse po ofw po ko ng 2009 at bumalik po ko dis yir..gusto ko po sana byadan din yung for 2010..para macontinue din po yung benefits ko dahil il be giving birth to my baby on december2010.san po ba yung pinakamalapit na office dto sa alabang…hindi po kse ako familiar sa bldg nio…yung 2009 po n nsa abroad ako ay bayad po ang philhealth ko…at nasa akin po yung receipt….thanks po
Hi Marilyn, ang Philhealth Alabang malapit sa SM Southmall. From Alabang, sakay ka sa mga jeep papuntang Zapote. Lagpas lang ng Southmall. Sa kanang side. May BDO at Landbank. Magtanong ka na rin sa Philhealth kasi pag childbirth, may mga rules para ma-cover, at saka dapat yata tuloy din yong SSS payments mo.
good am, ask ko lng po kung pwede ma retrive ung philhelth no. ko single pa po ako nuon when i was a member by my employer and i do not know my no., now im married i just want to continue by my husband name, or is it advisable to be re-member again for me to be able have a philhealth no? tnx
pls. reply to my inquiry tnx po
Hi Jane, oo puede pa makuha yong PHealth # mo, punta ka lang sa any PHealth branch. Advice ko lang, isa na lang sa inyo ang mag-member para maka-save ng 100 pesos a month. Kung member na ang husband mo, mag-file siya ng membership amendment form para mai-register ka na dependent (spouse). He submits your marriage cert. sa personnel dept. nila o sa PHealth diretso. Write a letter na rin na you’ve discontinued your membership para ma-accept yong form (kasi sa aking case, I had to write a letter na di na ako paying as a Philhealth member, para ma-consider akong dependent of my husband)
Good Evening po. Paano po ba maging member ng PhilHealth? Ano po ba ang mga requirements? Pwede po ba kahit hindi pa naging employee? Ano pa po ba ang ibang info needed? Salamat po.
Oo, puede ka maging member. Just go to any branch. Sabihin mo gusto mong maging member as SELF EMPLOYED o INDIVIDUALLY PAYING member. Bring your birth certificate at birth certificate ng anak mo, if you have, or marriage cert ng husband mo if you’re married. Puede rin dependent mo ang parents mo if they’re aged 60 years and above na hindi PHealth member. Tingnan mo dito ang sample ng membership form: http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/forms/membership/m1b.pdf. Dalhin mo na rin IDs mo. Sa form, leave blank mo lang if you don’t have SSS or TIN nos. Pag naka-enroll ka na, kindly comment again dito at ikuento mo experience mo to help others also. Thanks.
mauubusan ba nang card or identification card ang philhealth?
p###ng ina kasi tong dito sa cebu the f###ing receptionist keep telling me to just come back on next week as i never received any actions. i wonder why sabi nya naubusan daw silA NG damn id’s!!! theyre supposed to have the request before the card bago silA mauubusan ng mga p###ng id na yan!!!!
f##k off ba ang philhealth?
uulihin ba ako ng mga taga embassy kasi marami na akong mga nagawang krimen dito sa pinas?
Hi Amy, kahit naman dito sa Mla hindi kaagad mabigay ang PHealth ID. Low budget tayo, di ba? Ang importante, member ka at may # ka. Pag maospital ka naman, kelangan lang ng certification ng 724care na paid ka for the last three months, okay na. Pero, if you like to help make a change about this PhilHealth ID issue or PHealth Cebu, you can write emails to PhilHealth headquarters or make comments on Pinoy’s Facebook, minus the cusswords.
Hi, pag po ba nagparehistro ako as member ng philhealth eh magagamit ko na din agad ung number na yun sa hospital para makadiscount?
Hi, Eli, tumawag ako sa PhilHealth Las Pinas, at ang sabi, di pa puedeng gamitin agad. Magbilang daw ng six months after start of membership, at dapat paid yong six months. Kahit daw bayaran lahat yong six months, di pa rin puedeng gamitin agad. Suggestion ko, kahit ganon ang policy, mag-member ka na ngayon. Kindly share lang dito kapag nakapagtanong ka sa ibang branch, at iba ang sagot.
gudpm! i’ve been an employee before. i have a philhealth card kaya lng nkalimutan ko n tin.# ko. i am a member kc nung single p ko at gus2 ko ipgpatuloy ngaun maried n ko. what should i do? and pano ko mla2man tin no. ko which is a requirement. tnx
Hi Bing, ang alam ko hindi requirement ang TIN, kahit andon sa form. Leave blank mo na lang. Naka-voluntary member naman yong husband ko kahit hindi niya finil-up yong TIN slot kasi nakalimutan din niya # niya. Just bring your marriage cert. to any branch para maging dependent mo husband mo. Tell them you want to apply as a Voluntary or Individually Paying member.

Hi Jo, puedeng-puede. Pero ang alam ko, this quarter na ang babayaran mo. Just bring your ID. 300 pesos ang minimum payment. Tanungin mo na lang sa office kung puedeng magbayad ng previous months. Kasi, di mo magagamit agad ang Philhealth kapag di ka nagbayad ng 3-month payment within the past 6 months. Sa Las Pinas office, magtanong ka lang. Mababait naman sila roon noong nagpunta kami ron.
gud pm po.. ask ko lang po kung puede ko po ituloy ung philhealth ko kc 3yrs ko na rn po kcng di nhulugan mula po nung ngresign ako tsaka married na rn po kc q eh single p po ako nun.. tsaka ung asawa ko po member din cia kaso nsa riyadh na po cia eh.. pano ko po kya maitutuloy ung sa knia? salamat po
Hi Eloisa, kahit isa lang ang member sa inyong mag-asawa, okay na, kasi dependent ninyo ang isat-isa. Usually for one year yong binabayarang Philhealth premiums ng mga OFW bago sila aalis. Pag one year na o malapit na, punta ka sa any branch at magbayad ka ng premiums. Dalhin mo lang marriage cert or Member Data Form or previous receipt. Nailagay ka bang dependent? Make sure na naisulat ka na dependent as wife sa records ng Philhealth.
Hi po ask me lang po kung pwede po b me iapply na dependant ung anak me at asawa me pero po yung apelyido ng anak me apelyido pa po ng una me asawa, Thanks po
Hi Naomilyn, oo, puede mong dependent ang second husband mo basta merong marriage certificate. Puede mo ring dependent ang anak mo kahit ang family name ay sa una mong asawa, basta dalhin mo yong birth certificate niya at nakasulat doon na ikaw ang mother. Bring your IDs. Kung tanungin, sabihin mo na yong anak mo hindi siya Philhealth dependent ng una mong asawa. Pag current Philhealth member ka na, mag-file ka lang ng Member Amendment Form sa any Philhealth branch.
gud pm po…pwde po malaman yung sketch papunta ng philhealth makati branch?..galing po ako ng sen.gil puyat ave.LRT station?
tnx po
ask ko lang po yung boyfriend ko matagal na syang di nakakapaghulog ng philhealth 3-4 years napo,gusto nia po ipagpatuloy kaso po ofw napo sya pede poba ako mag update ng philhealt nia ano po ang kakailanganing requirements?
Hi Nie, sakay ka ng jip na Buendia MRT, baba ka after MAPUA. Nasa kaliwa siya — it means pagbaba mo, tatawid ka. Tell driver also baba ka ng Philhealth, alam din nila yan. Mga third kanto siya from Ayala/Buendia crossing.
Hi Majo, hindi na ba automatic ang Philhealth membership noong umalis siya? Sa Oct 2, merong nationwide Philhealth membership campaign, baka medyo maluwag sila sa araw na yon. Bring mo ID niya, and your ID also and then explain to Philhealth your case. Puede mong i-print email niya sa iyo (authorization letter). Sa campaign na ito, ang sinabi lang ng Philhealth ay bring your ID and 300 pesos as payment for the first three months.
Hello po,ask ko lang kasi kakaseparate ko palang sa employer ko this july and hindi pa po ako nakapagbayad for the month of august and september as voluntary member. pwede ko pa po ba mabayran yung months na hindi ako nakacontribute? thanks
Hi Kat, yong September premium, puede mo pang bayaran up to October 10. Yong August, hindi na. Kung di ka pa nag-apply as a voluntary member, apply ka na rin before paying. Just bring IDs. Basta meron kang three consecutive months na paid in the past six-month period, okay lang na na-miss mo yong August. By the way, 300 pesos pala ang minimum na tinatanggap nila, so pay for Sept, Oct and Nov.
hello po, ask ko lang mahigit 3 years napo akong hindi nakakapaghulog sa philhealth that time i was single and working abroad. Now im married and pregnant and i want to ask if its possible to use my philhealth and continue hulugan ung 3 years na nalagpasan ko as an volountary/ individual.
Pls advice
Hi Zaenab, you can apply again as a voluntary member at any branch, but you can pay only for September 2010 and the next months, Oct, Nov, and so on (minimum payment of 300 pesos — for 3 months). I called Philhealth before, and they said they don’t allow paying missed payments. To be able to use Philhealth for maternity purposes, you should have paid nine monthly premiums within the 12-month period before hospitalization. If your husband has Philhealth, he can enroll you as a dependent.
Good PM. Ask ko lang po. OFW po ako dati. Umuwi lang po ako dto sa Pinas dahil manganganak ako. Nagbayad ako ng 1 year contribution sa Philhealth Cainta nung January 2010. According to my MDR, bayad ako until January 2011. Employed na po ako dito sa Pinas mula pa noong September 20, 2010. Ininform ko na po ang HR ng company namin sa nakalagay sa MDR. Pero kinaltasan pa din po ako sa unang sweldo ko kahit nagabiso po ako na bayad na ako until January 2011. Ano po ba ang dapat kong gawin. Gusto ko pong irefund ang kinaltas nila sa akin. Salamat po.
Hi Aileen, i-approach mo uli yong HR ninyo, kasi baka nakalimutan i-notify yong accounting about sa MDR mo. Ask mo na rin kung puedeng dumiretso ka sa accounting para ma-i-note agad. Or baka meron ibang dahilan na di natin alam, kasi required din ang employers to notify (or enroll) Philhealth about their new employees within 30 days of employment. Law kasi na they have to match your premium. If, for example, your monthly salary is 15K, you pay 187.50 and your employer pays 187.50 for a total of 375. Hindi ko lang alam baka may violation yong employer if it doesn’t pay for your Philhealth until February kahit nakabayad ka na for the same period as an OFW member. Baka ikaw pa lang kasi ang case nila na ganyan.
Hi again Aileen, by the way, if you resolve this, would you please share with us, kasi gusto ko rin malaman, at para we can help other readers too with the same case. Thanks.
gandang gabi po ask ko lang po kung san pede magparegister ng membership ng philhealth para bukas!,andito po ko ngayon sa dasma. cavite… meron poba samin dito?

I’m already a member just want to know how can i get an id fr Philhealth
Hi Leonard, the IDs should be obtained from Philhealth offices. But I think they don’t have the IDs yet. My husband was not given an ID when he changed his membership type this April. There’s somebody who commented here that there are no IDs yet. As long as you have your payment receipts, it’s okay since the hospital requires certification of recent contributions and not IDs.
Gandang araw first time gagamit ng Philhealth yung documents po na hinihingi nasa asawa ko po abroad ano po ba kailangan ko at saan po yung pinakamalapit na Philhealth office i’m from Binangonan Rizal. Thanks.
Hi Cha, eto mga branches nearest to you:

Dalhin mo lang ID mo, at marriage cert. at any ID ng asawa mo na naiwan, baka lang kelangan. Hingi ka ng certification of payment.
hi! i am already a member and wanted to include my kids as my beneficiary. what forms should i fill up and can i apply their membership in your las piñas branch? since i’m residing in pque. what will be my requirements.
Hi She Anne, Bring your IDs and certified true copies of your kids’ birth certificates (plus one xerox copy each). Yes, you can go to Las Pinas branch, or any other branch. Fill up the MD2 form — Member Data Amendment Form.
ma’am ask ko kng po kung ano ang landmark ng philhealth branch sa makati.. is it ITC bldg san po to malapit??
Hi Alma, Kung galing ka ng Taft, sakay ka ng Buendia MRT jeep, baba ka sa kanto after MAPUA, tumawid ka, katabi siya ng Yupangco Bldg. Lagpas siya ng MAPUA. Mga 3 kanto after RCBC Bldg. or after crossing ng Ayala at Buendia. Kung galing ka ng EDSA Buendia, sakay ka ng Buendia LRT jeep. Pag nalagpasan mo na ang Makati Ave., SSS, DTI, Ajinomoto, tingnan mo na at malapit na. Or better yet, ask the driver, alam nila yan.
hello ask lang po san pwede kumuha ng remittance form yung ME-5? nahihirapan kasi kame kumuha nun. Thanks
Hi Anne, dapat makuha yan sa lahat ng branches, pero mas madali siguro sa Philhealth branch sa Quirino-Taft, sa Marc 1 Bldg., beside LRT Quirino station. Diyan nakakuha ang sister ko ng ME-5 nang madali lang about 3 months ago.
Hi Anne, dapat makuha yan sa lahat ng branches. Pero mas madali siguro sa Philhealth branch sa Quirino-Taft, sa Marc 1 Bldg., beside LRT Quirino station. Diyan nakakuha ang sister ko ng ME-5 nang madali lang about 3 months ago. Pero try nio pa rin sa Philhealth nearest sa inyo. Puedeng paki-share lang saan kayo nakakuha later on, and thanks.
ask koh lang poh pregnant poh ako then kukuha poh akoh ng philhealth dis month babayaran koh na poh agad ung pang 6 months na contribution ko pwede koh na poh ba un magamit dis january? kz january poh ang due koh. tnx poh sana masagot agad
Hi Yvonne, kung mag-member ka bukas or any working day before Nov 10, puede mo pang bayaran ang October. Kung babayaran mo rin ang Nov, Dec at Jan, 4 months ang nabayaran mo by January. I think hindi mo pa magamit in Jan, kasi ang requirement para sa pregnancy case ay 9 months of payment within the 12-month period bago manganak. Para sa ordinary hospitalization, 3 months lang within the 6-month period prior. Pero, punta ka pa rin sa Philhealth at magtanong din. Take care
hi ask ko lng po ano po dpat gawin ko since yung 2 ko anak dati po syang dependent ng asawa ko pero from 2003 to present di na po sya naghuhuloig ng contribution coz he was then resigned from his previous employer and now i am the one who applied for individual payor and want to add my 2 daughterf for my dependent pero di pumayag yung sa membership nung philhealth dahil naka add as dependent pa dw po sa record nung asawa ko..pls let me know kung gagawin ko.. gagawa po b ng letter ung asawa ko informing na in active memeber na po sya..
Second, if nag member po ako today.. when can i get my philhealth card?? dun ko po ba un makukuha mismo sa makati since dun po ako nag pa member o pwede din sa iba branch?? thanks so much for the attention!!
Hi Alma, yes, have your husband write a letter/certification that he has resigned from his job, has not paid his Philhealth premiums since his resignation date, no longer an active member, and that he is requesting Philhealth to accept his 2 daughters as your dependents. Bring your daughters’ birth certificates, including a xerox copy each. I think IDs are not yet available. My husband doesn’t have an ID yet. Anyway, hospitals depend more on the certification of recent payments, and not on the IDs.
hi, how can i get my old number tin number so i could pay it im hir in alabang wer can i go near in alabang to get my tin number tnx and god bless

hi po sana ko po pwede makuha ang tin number ko yong luma ?malapit po ko sa alabang sana po ko pwedeng punta para makuha ko luma tin ko tnx
Hi, Gemmalyn, call the BIR hotline 981-8888.
Hi Joel, ang dependents ay yong mga taong puede mong isama sa Philhealth record mo para magamit din nila ang Philhealth benefits. Walang dagdag na premium. Puedeng parents (60 years old and above) at spouse na hindi Philhealth members. Puedeng anak below 21 years old at single. Dapat i-enroll mo sila. Pag anak, you bring birth cert. Pag spouse, marriage cert. Pag parents, your birth cert. and your parents’ birth cert. About payments, ang deadline of payment ay the last day of the quarter. Example: tapos ka nang nagbayad ng Jan-March quarter, ang last day of payment for April-June quarter ay June 30, pero pay before June 30 kapag Sat, Sun or holiday ito. Pero mas magandang magbayad nang maaga para safe at sigurado.

ay, sorry kung nag double post..
hi to all,
share ko lang po dito ung naging experience ko with philhealth nitong huli lang.. I was a member of philhealth for 5 years at continous ang payment of contributions ko since ung company namin ang nagpprocess ng payments. Last April I resigned from my work. Now this October manganganak si misis ko and added my wife as my dependent for my philhealth (she was not a previous member so wlang conflict).. Then siyempre to be able to use my philhealth gusto ko bayaran ung mga hindi ko nabayarang buwan. Ang sabi ng taga philhealth office hindi ko na daw pwedeng bayaran ung previous months ko since malaki daw kasi ung gap (6 months starting from April)at hindi daw ppwede ang retroactive payments. then tinanog ko kung ano lang ang pwedeng mabayaran ko. Ang sabi sa akin, ang pwede ko lang daw mabayarang ay ung months from October to Decembber. Tinanong ko din kung what if bayaran ko ung october to december eh magagamit ko ba ung philhealth sa panganganak ng misis ko. Ang sabi sa akin hindi daw ppwede kasi kailangan maghintay pa ng 6 months (parang new member, LOL). So ayun, last October nanganak si misis ng CS at hindi ko manlang napakinabangang ang LIMANG TAON kong pagiging member just because I was unable to pay continously at nagkaron na ng gap ng 2 quarters.
Kaya to all members na nagresign, nalay-off, or anything related to this kind of scenario. I suggest na asikasuhin ninyo agad ang contributions ninyo and pay as VOLUNTARY MEMBER. Since hindi ko naman alam na may ganito pala silang policy sa pagbabayad na sa totoo lang talagang nakakadisappoint kaya ayoko nang maranasan pa ito ng iba pa.
BTW ako din ung Eli na nagtanong last september and at that time I was thinking of applying for a Philhealth membership for my wife because nung time na yon ay hindi pa kami married kaya hindi po pa siya ma-add as dependent.
Good day to all,
Eli.

-Good day to all,
Hi Eli, malaking salamat sa pag-share mo sa experiences mo. I’m sure meron kang mga matutulongan.Meron din ditong pregnant member na hindi na rin nakahabol sa benefits kasi late na sa payments. Nakakalungkot nga sa iyo kasi 5 years kang nagbayad at nong kelangan mo na ay hindi mo na magamit dahil lang sa hindi mo naasikaso. CS pa naman. Buti na lang you had the resources para okay even without the Philhealth. Thanks again for sharing. I may write again another Philhealth post and include what you shared. May God continue to bless you and your family.

gud day to all, tanong ko lang tungkol sa dependent lalo na kung OFW kasi yung wife ko pinapakuha ng philhealth kahit nasabi na nya na dependent na sya talaga bang obligado sila 900php pa naman ang bayad pwede nyo ba e expalin kung bakit at ganun ang nangyari? tanx waiting the response here god bless
gud day to all, tanong ko lang tungkol sa dependent lalo na kung OFW kasi yung wife ko pinapakuha ng philhealth nung nagpunta kami sa POEA kahit nasabi na nya na dependent na sya talaga bang obligado sila 900php pa naman ang bayad pwede nyo ba e expalin kung bakit at ganun ang nangyari? tanx waiting the response here god bless
gud day sa lahat, tanong ko lang about sa dependent kasi galing kami sa POEA ng wife ko pinakuha sya na philhealth kahit dependent ko sya mandatory ba to sa OFW kahit dependent na sya paki explain lang po salamat
Hi Ranil, palagay ko mandatory, kasi may work na kayong pareho. Parang dito rin sa Phil, pag pareho kayong employed, parehong may Pag-ibig contributions. Pero, di ko rin sure. Siguro, kung may dala kang papers to prove na she’s your dependent, baka okay. Example, yong Member Data Form at marriage certificate. I-research ko nga uli.
tanx sa response but i need more explanation *ganun so balewala ang dependent nyan kung pareho may contribution is that the rule now kaya nga po tinatawag na dependent di ba
tanong ko lang po mag kano po ba talaga ma deduct sa hospital bill? kung nag bayad po ako ng 40k sa pag ka hospital ng parents ko? di ko alam ang percentage deduction kaya ala po me idea.
Hi, Alfredo, more or less one-third. Hindi pare-pareho kasi depende sa room, hospital category, sickness category, etc. Example, sa tertiary or big hospitals, ang itutulong ng Philhealth for room and board ay 500 pesos/day for Case A and B na sakit, 800 pesos sa Case C (mas serious). 300 pesos lang pag small hospital at Case A illness. For Class A big hospital, sa medicines, ang maximum aid ay 4,200; sa x-ray and laboratory, 3,200 pesos; sa doctor (GP), 300 per day maximum 1,200. The prices I quoted are as of April 2009, paki-check na lang kung tumaas na kasi wala pa akong makitang bago. May aid din sa surgeries. Puntahan mo na lang yong accounting ng hospital to get more details.
good day! Nag pa member na po sa phil health ang fren ko last 2007. kaya lang 2nd quarter lng po ang nbayaran nia. Nhinto dahil nagstay siya sa mindoro. inactivate nia last oct. 2010. kahapon, nov. 2, na diagnose siyang may mayoma at kailangan maopera agad. magagamit po ba nia ang phil health nia kung magpapaopera siya sa january 2011? salamat po
gud day! nagpamember n po ang fren ko lst 2007, nakabayad po siya ng 3 months voluntary contribution . after that nahinto kase nagpunta siya ng mindoro.ni re activate po niya last oct. of this year 2010.magagamit na pu ba nia ito kung mag papaopera siya next year january 2011?
Hi Donna, kung noong nagpa-reactivate siya ay binayaran niya Oct to Dec, palagay ko puede niyang magamit kasi meron na siyang three months of payment within the prior six-month period, (based sa rules nila), at meron na siya dating binayaran noong 2007. BUT, DO NOT rely on my opinion, kasi merong nag-comment dito na ang sinabi raw sa kanya ng Philhealth ay magagamit lang niya ang Philhealth after 6 months. Tell your friend to go to Philhealth and ask para sigurado.
miss nors: salamat po

hi gud pm… asko ko lng 3yrs n ko ng bayd ng phil health ng diretso,,, nung ngresign ako nahinto for 2 yrs… gusto ko sana i activate. magagamit ko kya un sa july 2011
Hi, Michelle, be a voluntary member immediately na para makaipon ka ng nine months before July 2011, kasi starting July 1, 2011, i-implement na ng Philhealth yong requirement of nine months of premium payments prior to confinement (based sa advisory nila). Ask the Philhealth officer if you can pay for October para tamang-tama na October to June make up nine months. Tell them you’ve been a member for three years before. Doon sa payment rules nila for voluntary members, the last day of payment for a certain quarter (or three-month period) is the last day of the quarter (or the third month). So, sa October to December na quarter, puede mo pang bayaran yong premium for October. Pero, of course, mas sigurado if you visit Philhealth, ASAP.
gud day ask ko lang hinde ko kse nagamit ung philhealth ko ng mahospital ako… so ung mga binayaran ko sa hospital pti ung mga gamot pede daw ireemberse sa philhealth??? is it true na umaabot ng 6 months bgo ko mkuha ung check?? bkit ganun ka tagal ung process..wait ko reply tnxxx
Hi, jane, accredited ba ng Philhealth yong hospital kung saan ka confined? Kasi bakit hindi nila ni-remind yong Philhealth? O walang nag-asikaso ng papers? Mag-file ka na, kasi puede lang mag-file within 60 calendar days mula noong na-discharge ka? Hindi lahat mai-reimburse. Mga one-third siguro, depende sa hospital category, laboratory charges, etc. Get a Philhealth certification from your employer, if employed ka, and bring it to the hospital, and show them your receipts, and ask for Philhealth processing. Yes, matagal ang processing ng Philhealth for reimbursement, sa dami ng claims. Kaya ok sana kung na-submit ang papers to the hospital before discharge para na-deduct agad sa bill mo.
Ang pangit ng health benefit nyo sa 6 years kong pagbabayad ng philhealth lumaktaw lang ako ng 3 months, tapos nagbayad ako ng kusa sa 3rd qtr atr 4 qtr di na pinayagan ang maternity ng misis ko. Talagang ininsist yung 9 months… wala palang tulong… panu na???
Hi, Rudy, yong personnel ba sa hospital ang nag-reject ng Philhealth papersmo? Check mo nga yong 12-month period rule sa case mo? Example, nanganak misis mo this November. Ang prior 12 months ay November 2009 to October 2010. May 9 months ka bang nabayaran diyan? Kasi kung meron, palagay ko, puede mong ipilit. Except lang kung sabihin nila na yong 9 months kelangang consecutive. Yong tuluy-tuloy yong 9 months. Kasi sa rule nila, hindi namang sinabing “consecutive nine months.” Ang pag-file ng claim within 60 calendar days after discharge. Tinawagan mo na ang Philhealth? trunkline: 637-9999 pa-connect ka sa claims o benefits.
hi gud day po!tanong ko lang po saan ba ako pwede mag bayad ng payment sa philhealh,seafarer po ako at on vacation ngayon gusto ko po ituloy ang payment.ano bang kailangan kng requirements para magbayad?pwede po ba sa banko?
Hi,joel, kung meron ka nang Philhealth number as an Individually Paying Member (IPM), puede ka nang magbayad sa banks like BDO, Metrobank, Allied Bank, Landbank, PNB, DBP, (not BPI) or accredited rural banks or CSI Bayad Centers. Pag hindi ka pa IPM, you need to go to a Philhealth branch to enroll as an IPM. Bring IDs, your birth cert, your children’s birth cert (if you have children) and marriage cert (if your wife is not a Philhealth member) and xerox copies of certs.
Hi good morning! i would like to clarify about philhealth coverage for impatient members. i was confined coz i gave birth and stayed in the hospital for 3 days.before ako edischarge ngsubmit ako ng mga requirements for phlhealth deductions. i got 52k for my billing and we were suprised 2, 500 lang dw ang pwede e cover ng philhealth for normal delivery.is it true? i have contributions for 3 years but since my contributions for 1 year is more than 2500 so yun lang din ba tlga yung mababawas sakin?another is, iba iba po ba ang procedure ng hospital pagdating sa philhealth deductions. thank you and hoping for your response.
pwedeng malaman yung telephone number ng philhealth any branches dito sa makati.thanks
Hi, Jo-Ann, according to the Philhealth’s website, 6,500 pesos ang maternity package for normal delivery: 2,500 for hospital charges such as room, drugs, lab fees, labor room, recovery room, etc.; 2,500 for professional fee of doctor and assistants;
1,500 for prenatal care,such as lab tests, prenatal consultations with official receipts. Paki-check na lang sa hospital mo bakit hindi mo nakuha yong maximum benefit — halimbawa, 5k kung hindi na isali yong prenatal benefit. Philhealth Makati Branch: 337 ITC Building, Sen. Gil Puyat
Tel: 897-1598; 897-2759; 897-6329; 897-3337; 899-4506 Hope this helps.
Followup questions: meron bang agreement ang philhealth and hospital regarding sa maternity packages na pwde nila ibigay?kasi sabi smin sa hospital nung nanganak ako is un lng daw un package nila for normal delivery na 2,500 so un lng nbawas sa bill nmin…the 2,500 package was not explained to us so kung ano mn na ibang maternity benefit wla kmi nkuha aside from the 2.5k package..if ever ba pwde pa ba nmin mareimburse un ibang package na hindi naisama ng hospital?tnx po in advance!
Hi, Jo-ann, pare-pareho dapat ang mga benefit packages ng Philhealth-accredited hospitals, except lang sa non-maternity confinement, wherein pag mas malaki ang hospital, mas malaki yong Philhealth reimbursement limits. Halimbawa, sa room rate, sa big hospital, sasagutin ng Philhealth up to 450 pesos, at sa small hospital, sasagutin lang up to 300 (pero, yong figures ko dito example lang ha kasi wala pa sa akin yong new Philhealth rates). Sa maternity packages, ang alam ko, pare-parehong up to 6,500 or 5k (if without prenatal care). Ang naiisip ko ngayong sa case mo, baka yong doctor mo hindi siya accredited ng Philhealth. May instance kasi na ang hospital ay Philhealth-accredited pero yong doctor ay hindi (lalo na kung sosyal yong doctor mo at hindi na niya kelangan ang Philhealth) Did you keep your prenatal care receipts (kung medyo marami at aabot ng 1k, baka worth it ilakad) May I ask if you’ve availed of your SSS maternity benefits?
Hi Again, thanks for accomodating my inquiries.
it was not clear kasi sa billing ko kung anung package lang yung nabawas, (do i need to clear it to the hospital pa?)ngyari lang kasi is yung 2500 which they said yun lang yung kasama sa package ay binawas lang sa pinakatotal ng bill ko..I was confined last nov 6 lang and now ko lang narealized kung bakit ganun lng yung nabawas sakin. i have a friend and she was able to get the maximum benefit ng Philhealth at CS siya pero ako na normal eh mas malaki pa yung bill ko though both our hospitals ay private nga lang sakanya ay nasa province at ako dito sa St. Clare’s Makati (am not really sure if provincial hospitals has different treatment with regards to that) regarding sa prenatal care, i paid 6k kasi binigyan yung baby ko ng 2 shots for the vaccines, meron din siya newborn screen test which is supposedly covered din ng philhealth to di ba?pero i paid for it pa din..i guess it’s my right naman to get the max benefit since parepareho naman dapat pla yung packages ng philhealth accredited hospitals.just in case mahabol ko pa to, anu po ba dapat kung gawin in the first place? regarding sss maternity reimbursements am processing it now, pero ibang institution naman to kasi sila naman mgpoprovide ng benefits sakin kasi hindi ako nakawork ng 2 months.kung wala naman na ako mahabol sa philhealth ok lang basta clear lang sakin ang lahat..i know 60 days lang ang palugit sa mga gantong issue, at if ever sana mahabol ko pa..thank you so much..
Hi, Jo-Ann, tama ka, dapat habulin natin ang nararapat para sa atin. Yes, dapat tawagan mo ang St. Clare’s accounting dept. para ma-clear. Tell them na gusto mo lang malaman kung bakit di mo nakuha yong maximum Philhealth maternity benefit. Besides, kung maghahabol sa Philhealth, kelangan pa rin ang St. Clare dahil sila ang magbibigay ng statement of account, etc. I hope you get a clear answer, and I’d appreciate it if you relate it here again. Thanks Jo-Ann.
Im six year working here in Qatar, every time when I get my Exit pass I pay Philhealth contribution. my questions are;magagamit ba ng anak ko sa panganagnak ang aking philhealth? magkano ang makakaltas na babayaran sa ospital? simula ng magbayad ako ng philhealth ay di pa ito nagagamit. Puwede ba ang asawa ko ang mag asikaso para ibigay ang mga dokumento kailangan para sa aking mga anak na mababa sa 18 anyos ang edad. thank you very much waiting for your reply.
Hi, Bobot, yes, magagamit ng anak mo ang Philhealth kung single o unmarried pa siya at nakasulat sa Philhealth form mo na dependent mo siya. Pag hindi siya registered as your dependent, punta na lang ang spouse mo sa Philhealth para sa updating ng member data mo, at tanungin kung anong gagawin kung nasa abroad ka at kelangang pirmahan yong form. Maximum benefit sa normal delivery ay 6,500 sa Philhealth-accredited na hospital, pero 1,500 ang prenatal dito. Ang maganda may makausap na OB-GYN para makuha yong maximum benefit. Make sure na yong doctor ay Philhealth-accredited din. Pag CS, ang alam ko considered like other surgeries — depende na sa regular limits. Again, maganda may kausap na doktor kasi nagbibigay din sila ng package. Paki-check din kung yong expected delivery niya ay within sa period na nakasulat sa Philhealth receipt mo. Sa hindi kasi OFW, dapat nabayaran ang premiums for 9 months within the 12-month period before confinement. Pero sa OFW dapat within the period written on your Philhealth paper. Hope this helps.
Hi, regarding my inquiry last time about maximum maternity benefits, i went to St.Clare’s hospital and sinabi mismo ng staff ng philhealth doon ay 2, 500 lang daw talaga ang package for normal delivery.yun lang daw tlaga.di na rin ako nginsist pa mgtanong ng magtanong kasi hindi rin sila accomodating at approachable. anyway i guess i rest this case kasi mukhang wala naman yata akong mahahabol pa dito kasi di ko rin alam kung sino ba tlaga papaniwalaan ko, kayo o yung philhealth dun sa St.Clare’s Hospital since same institution din naman kayo.Thank you.
Hi, Jo-Ann, naaliw naman ako sa sinabi mong hindi mo alam kung sino ang paniniwalaan mo. Yong 6.5K na amount ay nasa circular/advisory ng Philhealth. Certainly, hindi maganda ang customer relations ng St. Clare kasi hindi nila ma-explain nang maliwanag sa iyo kung bakit. I’ve conferred with hospital clerks/cashiers a lot of times at ine-explain naman nila kung bakit ganito lang ang naibawas, kasi ganito…. mga ganon. Pinapakita pa nga nila yong Philhealth schedule. Naka-post pa sa mga rooms. Anyway, sige, tama ka, focus na lang on your gorgeous baby. Napansin ko nga, madaling-araw ka na nakaka-Internet. Ganyan ang new mother, ang araw at gabi seamless — tuluy-tuloy ang oras. Take care… By the way pala, merong darating sa iyo na papers from Philhealth, kasi ganon yong sa amin, meron akong natatanggap, nakalagay doon kung magkano ang binayaran ng Philhealth sa hospital.
hi!i’l just wait na lang sa letter from philhealth para atleast maniwala ako na ganun lang talaga..:-)how many weeks kaya yun bago dumating?kasi pag di dumating yun it means there’s something wrong…BTW, HR din kasi ako and all concerns ng employees sa company namin eh binibigyan ko ng attention wether maliit o malaki yung mga concerns nila and somehow sad on my part kasi ako na yung may concerns yet di ako masatisfy sa hinahanap kung sagot sa St.Clare’s. Anyway, thank you and God Bless.
Hi, Jo-Ann, I forgot na yong time, pero two months siguro, bago ko natanggap yong from philhealth. ise-send doon sa address na isinulat mo sa claim form. By the way, if you have time, ito yong circular for the maternity package: http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/circulars/2009/circ39_2009.pdf Yong sa newborn care, ito: http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/members/employed/ncp_benefits.htm Glad to know that you’re sharing what you can with your fellow workers. So sad lang na you didn’t get the same from St Clare. God bless too.
paano po b makakakuha ng philhealth i.d. @ saan po ang pinakamalapit n branch s manila.? pde po ba n aq na ang mag-enroll s philhealth s parents q?
pag emergency pwede ba gamitin yng philhealth ko ng pamilya ko miski na di pa sina submit mga birth certificate nila six years na ako ofw dito sa qatar twing bakasyn ko nagbabayad ako ng philhealth fee noong nag work ako dyn may bawas din ako sa philhealth maaari ba malaman yng # ko padala sa akin thru my email address,thank you very much
Hi, edz, puede mo i-enrol parents mo as dependents if they are 60 years old or above. Pag younger sila at mag-member sila, have them sign the membership form, bring their IDs and authorization. Pag kukuha ka ng form, magtanong ka na rin about authorization para sure. Merong branch sa corner Taft and Quirino. Nasa blogpost above yong exact address.
Hi, Bobot, according sa Philhealth website, puede, basta yong date ng paggamit ng family ay covered sa nakalagay na coverage dates sa receipt ng premium payment mo. Sabi ng website: Clear copy of MDR. If MDR is not available, submit official receipt of applicable premium payment. If qualified dependent is not listed in the MDR – submit applicable proof of dependency ex. birth certificate, marriage certificate.
Hindi ba nakalagay ang Philhealth # sa receipt mo? Nong nagbayad kasi kami ay andoon sa receipt yong #. If you like, email Philhealth:
owp@philhealth.gov.ph
follow up question, ang naka lagay sa resibo na binigay ng POEA sa exit pass ko ay yng mga halaga ng binayaran ko like OWWA, POEA at PHILHEALTH wala ng philhealth # ko thank you
Hi, Bobot, kung 900 yong bayad sa Philhealth, that means one year. So valid yong Philhealth para sa family mo one year from date of receipt. i-email mo na lang Philhealth for the number, and I suggest you send your family a copy of your Philhealth receipt.
pde po b magtanong about sss?
Hi, edz, ano yong tanong mo? or baka gusto mo na lang pumunta sa sss.gov.ph Happy new year
Sir / madam,
inquire lng po regarding requirements for company application . ( corporation)

gud am po, ask ko lng po, member na po ako dati ng philhealth nong nag abroad ako single pa ang status ko pero d ako nakapaghulog mahigit 5yrs, pero d ko alam na pina member din pala ako ng agency ko noon at hinulugan nla, ngayon dalawa ang philhealth number ko. ngayong may asawa na ako gusto kng ituloy ang membership ko para magamit ko sa aking panganganak. ano po mga requirements para ma activate ang aking philhealth? pwede ko bang ituloy na hulugan yong isang philhealth id kong una? pls help.
Hi, Angel, puedeng-puede. Ituloy mo yong number na marami kang naihulog. Mag-renew ka agad, kasi pag pregnancy, required at least 9 monthly contributions prior to hospitalization. Pakibasa na lang yong mga comments dito, sa mga philhealth articles dito, may naka-discuss ako about pregnancy. May commitment lang kasi ako na puntahan. Later again. Thanks.
mam/sir,
thanks po sa reply. may ask pa po ako ulit mam, kasi ung asawa ko iissue-an xa ng philhealth this month kc nag apply din sya pwde po bang 2 kami member ng philhealth? ung philhealth ko po kasi single pa ang ginamit ko noon, ano po ang mga requirements for reactivation ng philhealth? kelangan po ba na ichange status ung id ko? tnx po
good day po,
meron po bang branch sa mecauayan, bulacan?
hingi ko po sana contact numbers.
Maraming salamat po….
Hi Angel, kung pareho yata kayong employees, parehong kayong members. Pero kung self-employed ang isa o dalawa, isa lang ang mag-member para tipid. Dapat i-register ka na dependent ng husband mo o vice versa. Bring marriage certificate at letter certifying na hindi na active member yong isa. Pero antayin mo muna na mga 9 months nang member yong asawa mo para sure.
gud pm po..last year pumunta akong philhealth nag verify ako if may hulug account ko sa dati kung employer i foung out wala syang hulog..since voluntary member ako sad to say hindi ko na raw sya mahulugan kahit gusto ko pa hulugan yung n missed na qauater para magamit ko sya sa panganganak ko..now gusto ko mag member uli at hulugan ang buong taon..magagamit ko po b sya next month if now ako mag p member?pls response….tnx
Hi, aiai, sad to say, hindi mo magamit agad ang philhealth. Sa OFW, puede, kasi may time frame yong sa kanila. Sa pregnancy benefit, dapat nakabayad ka ng at least 9 months prior to hospitalization (actually, 9 months within 12 months prior to hospitalization). Kung magbayad ka this january, nov-dec-jan lang ang puede mong bayaran, kaya hindi ka makabuo ng 9 months. Pero, mag-member ka na rin, para sa health care mo in the future.
hi mam,gud am po,ask ko lang po kapag yung company namin magpapasa ng ER1 anu anu po ba yung mga requirements and san po kami pupunta na pinakamalapit na branch if yung location po ng company namin eh dito sa west ave. QC?

hi i’m 7 months pregnant ngayon. ask ko lang po ano po ba requirements ng mga hospital kapag philhealth member ka.. philhealth id lang ba at mdr? ask ko rin po kasi nagwork ako last Feb 2010-June 2010 (5months).. and hindi na ko nakapagbayad ng July 2010-Sept 2010(3months). nung first week ng Dec nag-continue ako ng contribution as individually paying member so nagbayad ako ng P300 for Oct 2010- Dec 2010 (3months).. expected due date ng delivery ko is mar 2011. nabasa ko kasi sa isang article sa ibang site na para maging eligible ka sa philhealth (for pregnant) dapat at least you make 9 payments within 12 months prior to delivery. eh kung mar 2011 ako manganganak supposed to be yung contribution ko na Feb 2010- June 2010 (5months) at Oct 2010- Dec 2010 (3months) so all in all 8months lang sya. pano kung di ako makapagbayad ngayong Jan2011-Mar2011 ng P300, meaning ba nun hindi ko magagamit yung philhealth pagkapanganak ko kasi 8months lang payment ko? please reply po sa mga questions ko..thanks po
Hi, atirah, bayaran mo na agad yong Jan to Mar 2011. Tama yong requirement na 9 months within the prior 12-month period. Kung delivery month mo ay March 2011, ang prior 12-month mo ay Mar 2010 to Feb 2011. Ang nabayaran mo dito is Mar to Jun 2010 (4 mos),Oct to Dec 2010 (3 mos) = 7 mos. You need 2 months more. You’re blessed kasi may time ka pa to pay 2 months — that’s Jan to Feb 2011. Bayad ka na agad. For more info about the maternity benefit — http://www.workingpinoy.com/2011/01/philhealth-maternity-benefits/ Hope you can come back and share your experiences after you give birth and receive your benefits. Thanks atirah, and have a joyful, safe and calm delivery.
last question po after giving birth ko nalang po ba i-aapply yung magiging baby ko as my dependent sa philhealth? ano po ba requirements nun? and sakop din ba ng provincial hospital (dun po plan ko manganak) ang philhealth kapag nagpanewborn screening ako.. may idea po ba kayo magkano cost nun?..and about naman sa sss contribution ko kung may idea din kayo kasi may contribution ako from feb.2010-june2010 (5months)nung nagwork ako dati.
*msc(2010)
jan-none
feb-8000
mar-12500
apr-13000
may-11000
jun-12000
july-dec none
*eh hindi na ko nakapaghulog ng july2010 until now kasi nagresign na ko,(expected due date ko mar2011) bale makakakuha pa din ba ko ng benefits from them na 5months nacontribute ko? kasi yung sss office dito sa province namin ang sabi may makukuha pa din ako kahit di na ko magvoluntary payment kasi sabi ko di ko afford yung bracket ko na 1240/month (vm)…nung nagpacompute ako sa office nila ng contribution ko, 5months ko divide sa 180 multiply by 60days (normal) P18,833.33 at kung cs multiply by 78days (P24,483.33)daw makukuha ko, pero bakit sa online inquiry ng http://www.sss.gov.ph bale yung kinompute lang nila yung 4months na highest msc ko.. bale P16,166.66 lang (normal) P21,016.66 makukuha ko.. medyo naguluhan ako sa computation kasi kahit pano sayang din yun..di ba nga 6 highest msc yun at dapat at least may 3months contribution ka for 12months period preceding the semesters (2 succeding quarters) of contingency. naguluhan po kasi ako sa computation ng sss office dito sa province pati sa online inquiry ng sss.gov.ph..any suggestions po about this kasi first time ko po magapply for maternity benefits..need lang din talaga ng money.. hehe.. thanks po=)
Hi, atirah, I assume na-notify mo na yong SSS of your pregnancy,which is a requirement. Based sa instructions ng SSS, ang tama is yong computation ng SSS office diyan sa inyo. Ang maisip ko lang why 8000 was not included in the online computation is that your February premium is probably not in SSS records. Can you check that? Thanks too.
Hi po ask ko lang po gusto ko po sana mag a apply for individual. saan po ba makaka kuha ng individual form for philhealth? pwede po ba sa DAP ortigas? thanks po.
Hi Jenny, oo, puede mag-Individually Paying Member don sa DAP Ortigas branch. Bring 300 pesos (for one quarter) at ID.
@nors,
yes po nagpanotify na ko last sept pa and after a week nareceive ko na agad yung feedback from sss office kasama yung mga requirements na kelangan for the claim. nakaindicate nga rin yung msc (monthly salary credit) at nakalagay dun sa letter yung 8000 for feb at yung mat2.. yun nga din po sabi ng SSS office dito, sila daw ang tama at mali daw yung nasa online inquiry.. naguluhan lang din talaga ako.. kasi kahit pano nakakahinayang yung pera kung sakali.. anyway thanks po sa reply at least kahit pano may idea ako na masmalaki chance na ang makuha ko ay yung computation ng sss office.. tc=)
Good day!
Ask ko lang po kung ano dapat gawin, pano po ang pagbayad ng philhealth,voluntary po ako b4 nakapagwork po ako sa isang opisina na stop po for 1 year,tapos ngayon magstart na kaming magbayad kaso sabi ng amo ko voluntary muna kasi magchange ng company name, tapos yung kasama ko nkaregister po sya as employed? ano po ang gagawin?please help po. Thank you for this site it really helps…
Hi Cheryl, bago pa lang ba ang company ninyo? Nagsisimula pa lang ba? Kung hindi pa talaga siya organized as a company, at nahihirapan pa siyang umangat, (my humble opinion ha), puede nga siguro kayong voluntary muna, habang hindi pa siya organized. Sa iyo, dahil voluntary ka na noon, magbayad ka lang ng 300 pesos for this quarter or 600 pesos for quarters, okay na. Yong kasama mo, mag-register siya as voluntary. On the other hand, Cheryl, kung ang firm niyo is organized na, licensed na, may SEC o DTI na, at nakikita niyong marami namang funds, sana your firm complies with Philhealth rules immediately. The firm pays half of your Philhealth premium — example: for 10k sahod — 250 ang total premium, employee pays 125, employer pays 125. Dito maraming info dito — Philhealth na ito http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/employers/index.htm Pero, kung sa palagay niyo ay nagsusumikap pa ang business, di pa siya organized, at you think naman that the firm will later comply with Philhealth rules, mag-voluntary muna. Pero, opinion ko lang ito Cheryl, depende pa rin sa inyo. Ako, kasi, sa financial affairs ko, nagco-compromise din ako kapag may valid reason.
To the Public:
Somebody is pretending to be somebody else. Total fraud this guy is.
First of All, he is claiming as ” Amy Barcenas” — which is me. And I have never , ever made those remarks about Philhealth.I dont swear like that. I understand that philhealth has their own system as every other organization is and I respect that.
Secondly, he is claiming to be ” Nickolai Boutvine”. Which is a foreign name yet he is writing a comment in straight tagalog. Very stupid huh.
To: the public
We never made these comments below. Its probably Somebody who has a grudge against us and the company ( 724care) probably because he was fired due to his terrible incompetence at work, sleeping on the job and leaving post without proper authorization from immediate supervisor.
mga p###ng id na yan!!!!

hi po ask ko lang po kung sa qc branch ba magfifile ng philhealth membership kung sa qc dn yung workplace ko.. sabi kasi ng company ako daw po magfile.. saka pano po pumunta dun if i’m from tondo manila po?
Hi ayko, ang ibig bang sabihin ng company mo ay mag-apply ka as a voluntary Philhealth member? ikaw lang ba ang employee? Kasi iba ang premiums at filing pag individually paying member at employee. Anyway, you can apply at any branch. Ang QC branch ay along Quezon Ave.
F.R. Estuar & Associates Penthouse, Estuar Building,
880 Quezon Ave., Quezon City, 3321550; 3321551
If you’re not familiar sa Quezon Ave, puede rin sa Philhealth sa Taft Ave. corner Quirino, tabi lang ng LRT Quirino.

SALAMAT PO
bagbag novaliches QUEZON city po yan
Hi Maylyne, suggest ko lang punta ka sa Philhealth branch, at tanungin mo kung meron ka nang number para makabayad ka na. Kung wala pa, puede ka na sigurong mag-enroll ng another (opinion ko lang ito ha, kasi siempre you need to pay na, di ba, para makasimula na, at sabi mo October pa). Individually Paying Member ang i-check mo, Self-Employed at Non-Professional (Ito na ring yong voluntary).
Yes, you can’t use Philhealth immediately – after 9 months pa. Additionally, for example lang na nag-enroll ka nang bago at nagbayad ka na, and later on, darating yong enrollment mo sa barangay, dapat isa lang ang ituloy mo. Bawal ang more than 1 Philhealth number.
Hi, Maylyne and the others, actually, yong prior nine-month na requirement para sa standard confinement (hindi maternity, hindi complex surgery) starting July 1, 2011 pa mag-start. Sa mga meron na dating Philhealth, three months of payment within the previous 9-month period ay puede pa before July 1, 2011. Philhealth payment requirement
Sir kc po gusto ko po kc sna mkakuha agad ng Philhealth at kung maaari sna bayaran ung whole year, pra mgamit ko agad after i paid the whole year!
Hi Maylyne, puedeng bayaran yong whole year, pero hindi mo pa magagamit agad. For example, kung magbabayad ka this February ng 1,200 pesos, magagamit mo pa sa May kung ordinary hospitalization (kung maternity at complicated surgery, 9 months of prior payments ang kelangan ). Hindi ko sure na sure ito, kasi merong nag-comment dito na ang sabi raw ng Philhealth sa kanya ay after 6 months. Pero based sa website ng Philhealth, three months prior puede na. Pero sa July 1, nine months na for all kinds of sickness. Punta ka na sa Philhealth para matanong mo na rin.
hi mam nors gud afternoon! just want to ask something lang po if pwede po bang iapply yung lola ko ng philhealth? she’s 63 yrs.old po and gusto ko po kasi syang magkaron ng philhealth pwede po ba yun?
Hi, Cecil, nagtrabaho ba siya dati? at nagphilhealth ba siya dati, kasi kung ganon, pede siya free lifetime member.
Kung hindi naman, yong mama mo or papa mo (kung sino ang anak ng lola mo) ay i-enroll ang lola mo as dependent, wala nang additional payment. Kung hindi sila Philhealth member, puede sila ang magmember at gawing dependent ang lola mo. Kelangan lang ng birth certificate ng papa or mama mo.
hi, sir/mam I got my philhealth no. na this 10th of February, i paid the 1st quarter already!!!!!!!! on the last working days of june ang payment ng 2nd quarter!!!! hnd ko kc masyadong clear ung cnbi skin ng nkausap ko knina prang after 3 mos. p daw pwd magamit, on ordinary hospitalization nga lng daw!!!!! TNX
maraming salamat po.
Hi, Maylyne, tama yon, pag ordinary hospitalization (hindi maternity, hindi complex surgery) dapat meron kang nabayaran na three months within six months prior to month of hospitalization. Sa case mo, February ang first month of payment mo, kaya month of May mo pa puedeng gamitin. Nabayaran mo rin ang January, so puede na dapat April, di ba? Pero sa pagkakaalam ko, sa new member ay i-consider yong month of first payment. Magtanong ka rin uli sa Philhealth para sure.
Note for others: Starting July, 9 months na within the 12-month period prior ang kelangan para maka-avail ng benefit.
ask ko lang po. kc almost 3 years n akong walng trabaho tpos ung philhealth ko hndi ko pa napapalitan ng vulontary contribuation, balak ko nga ngaung lingo na to ipapa individual contribuation ko na, kc my minor surgery na gagawin sa akin ang gynecologist ko almost 50thousand ang gastos, pwd ko na po ba ma avail ang philhealth ko pag nag pa individual contribuation na ako? nagun sanang may’2011 ang sugery ko/ pls help me. pls,
Hi Jhona, punta ka na agad sa Philhealth at mag-voluntary member ka na. Just bring your IDs and birth cert (baka lang hanapin pa). Ask them kung puede mong bayaran ang Dec, Jan and Feb, dahil member ka naman na dati. Pero, kung hindi, mas malamang first quarter this year ang pababayaran sa iyo — meaning Jan to March, or kung gusto mo naman, Jan to June or one year na. Pag nabayaran mo ito, ask mo na rin kung sa April, puede mo nang magamit. Kasi, meron ka nang 3 months of payments within the 6-month period before surgery. Ask mo na rin kung yang surgery mo ay classified na ordinary surgery lang. Kasi certain surgeries require 9 months of prior payment. Note: In July, lahat na ng klase ng sakit, 9 months na ang requirement. Jhona, kindly share mo later kung anong experiences mo ha, to help others. Thanks.
I went to Rizal branch today (behind Sta. Lucia Mall) for Philhealth enrollment and it took barely 30 minutes. Very happy with the quick service. Thanks for this directory!
Hi, Islas, wow, comments like this make my day — with you taking time to comment. Thanks a lot.

Hi Arjay. Hospital ang nanghihingi ng MDR? Oo, kahit saang branch puede kumuha ng Philhealth document kasi online ang mga branches. Yong Philhealth claim form papirmahan sa new employer. Ito ba yong tinatanong mo?

kung pde nmn kahit sa ibang branch ok n poh ako…!!
thank you poh…punta nlng me sa malapit na philhealth smen…
Hi Jenifer, tanungin ko lang kung bakit dapat may tseke ka from Philhealth — dahil ba binayaran mo lahat ang bills mo sa hospital at ngayon ay nag-aantay ka ng reimbursement ng 5,000 or 6,500 pesos na maternity benefit from Philhealth? Matagal nga mag-process ang Philhealth, kaya maganda talaga if the benefit is immediately deducted from the hospital bill para wala nang antayin from Philhealth.
Ang mga hospitals — fina-file nila ang mga claims nila sa nearest Philhealth branch.
Hi Arjay, a ganon ba, okay, take care.
good morning po,gusto ko po sana magpa member sa philhealth,asko ko lang po paano po mag apply?tapos ano po yung mga requirements?maraming salamat po.
Hi Leslie, punta ka lang sa any Philhealth branch near you. Bring your ID, your birth certificate, and 300 pesos for the first quarter. Check this Philhealth membership form.

Hi Zoe, sorry, based sa rules ng Philhealth, wala nang refund kasi may requirement ang Philhealth na dapat meron kang 9 months of contributions before delivery — 9 months within the 12-month period prior to delivery. Kung mag-member ka ngayon, in preparation na lang in case you need medical care in the future. Wala ring retroactive payments ang Philhealth. Kung mag-member ka ngayon, ang babayaran mong months ay this month, March, and the next months. Mag-member ka na para makapunta ka sa Philhealth and you can ask for more info.
Hi Willie, wala pang online inquiry ang Philhealth. Tawagan mo na lang ang Philhealth or visit any branch to get your Philhealth number. Telephones : 638-3080
Email: info@philhealth.gov.ph
hi po sir,mam!…. ask ko lng po, paano mg pa member ng philhalth & voluntary po. wala p akong family at gusto kong maging dependent ang mother ko ano po ba ang kylangan mga requirment. n dapat kong dalhin. at magagamit ko din po ba agad un?
hi po sir, mam!….ask ko lng po, paano mg member ng philhealth voluntary po. wala p akong family at gusto kong maging dependent ang mother ko ano po ba ang kylangan mga requirment. n dapat kong dalhin. at magagamit ko din po ba agad un? para sa pag didialysis ng mother ko?
Hi Jhun, just go to any Philhealth branch, bring your ID and birth certificate. Hindi mo agad magagamit. Wait for 3 months. (This is for common illnesses and hospitalization. Not sure about dialysis, kung 9 months) Dapat ngayon ka na mag-member kasi starting July 1, nine months na ang required prior payments for ALL medical needs. Walang retroactive payments sa Philhealth. Check the Philhealth membership form
Hi Jhun, I forgot to tell na you can enrol your mother as dependent if she’s already 60 years old or older. If not, she can enroll as a member herself. Puede naman na ngayon kahit anong work sa Philhealth basta mabayaran ang premium. If she’s 60 or older, bring also her birth certificate.
goo day po!
ask ko lang po kasi po nakalimutan ko mag bayad para sa last quarter of 2010 puede pa po ba akong makahabol ngaung mag babayd ako para sa 1st quarter of this year? i mean kung isasabay ko pong bayaran ung last quarter of 2010 puede pa po ba?
thanks po.
Hi, Rosena, according to FAQ section ng Philhealth, hindi na puede kasi lumagpas na yong one-month grace period. Last January, puede pa sana. This quarter, puede mo pang bayaran, until March 31, at kapag ma-miss mo uli, wala nang grace period this time kasi may na-miss ka na within this one-year period. Don’t miss this quarter — it’s important. Based on the rule na 3 months of payment within the prior 6-month period, ma-avail mo ang Philhealth if you use it this month or next month (as long as you pay this quarter). But starting July 1st, 9 months na ang required prior payments. So pay now. When you go to Philhealth, you can also ask these things.
Ma’am/Sir,
Is there possible to have an id philhelath? if possible is this valid to present as an id? Because I have no valid id. What is the processing way to have an id? Thanks
I laready have philhelath number.
Hi Jean, yes, a Philhealth ID is a valid ID. Just go to a Philhealth branch and request for an ID card. In the recent past, Philhealth lacked ID cards, but last week, I saw a Philhealth kiosk in a mall giving out IDs. Other valid IDs are: a birth certificate from NSO, a marriage certificate from NSO, a barangay certificate, and an unexpired NBI clearance. If you like to have another ID with photo, use your barangay certificate (sometimes given free or sometimes will cost about 20 pesos because they’ll sell you a cedula) to apply for a postal ID in your postal office (will cost about 350 pesos, could be more or less depending on your postal office).
hi po.. gud day! im 21 years old na since december 26, 2010… tanong ko lang po sana kung magagamit ko pa yung philhealth ng mama ko because i will undergo an elective surgery this may, 2011… if not, ano pong pwede kong gawin para mabawasan po yung magiging hospital bill ko??? pakisagot po… thanks and GOD bless
Hi Marievic, hindi ka na puedeng dependent ng mother mo kasi you’re 21 years old na. Dapat below 21 years old, unmarried and unemployed. Puedeng 21 years old and above if with permanent disability. If you decide to be a member, sa current rules ng Philhealth, three months of payments within the 6-month period before hospitalization are required (this will increase in July 2011 to 9 months within the 12-month period prior). March na ngayon, so kung mag-member ka at mabayaran mo itong March at April, 2 months lang ang mabilang, kulang ng one month. Sa mga members na before at nagrere-activate, puedeng bayaran ang January to March at April to June, pero hindi ko sure kung puede sa new members. Isa pa, depende rin sa type of surgery mo, kasi may surgery na 9 months ang required prior payments. If it’s still possible, and if you’re comfortable and amenable, call or visit Philhealth and ask kung puede mong bayaran ang Feb Mar April para magamit mo sa May, at pag hindi, ask if you can pay Mar Apr May para magamit mo sa June, and then, with your mother’s guidance, you can ask your doc if it’s safe to postpone your surgery (kasi sabi mo elective) for one more month. Remember also to ask Philhealth kung ilang months ang required na prior payments sa type of surgery mo. Take care
good afternoon po sir/maam! Ask ko po sna kung pwede ko i-apply yung kapatid ko na nasa ibang bansa? Kung pwede po, ano po ba ang mga requirements na ka-kailanganin nya, or ako.. Thanks po.. G0d bless!
Hi Flora, ito ang Philhealth membership form. Merong part itong form na ito na kelangang pirmahan ng kapatid mo. Kelangan din ng birth certificate niya. Para sure, tingnan mo yong telephone number ng malapit na Philhealth sa iyo sa list above or sa Philhealth list na ito at tawagan mo kung kelangang may authorization pa kung i-enrol mo yong kapatid mo na nasa abroad. Sabihin mo na napirmahan niya yong Philhealth membership form. 300 pesos ang minimum payment.
By the way, if she/he is an OFW, cheaper ang premium — 900 pesos a year — ipakita lang ang OEC or job contract.
Hi maam,
On september 2011 ako manganganak..and my last yearly payment was last 2009 pa i wasnt able to use it then kasi i paid few months nalang before i gave birth to my 1st.
I skipped 2010.and this year plano ko magbayad ng P1200 on Monday.Will i still be able to use it on September 2011?
thank you
Hi Jewelle, March to August counts only 6 months. Nine months ang kelangan for maternity. Kung payagan kang mabayaran mo ang Jan and Feb, that would still be only 8 months. Pero punta ka pa rin sa Philhealth para sure. Philhealth Maternity Benefits
gud am po. buntis po aq ngaun at bagong kasal lng nun january2011, kailangan q pa ba iupdate ang status q sa philhealth para may makuha aqng benefit sa panganganak q? may philhealth branch po ba d2 sa valenzuela?tnx
Hi Rowena, kahit hindi mo i-update ang civil status mo, maka-avail ka ng maternity package, basta meron kang 9 monthly payments within the 12-month period prior sa month ng panganganak mo. Here’s the Philhealth claim form. Ito ang blogpost ko about Philhealth maternity benefits. Pero maganda pa ring you visit Philhealth, and file a change of member data para maging dependent mo ang husband mo.
Pahabol pala, Rowena, i-update mo na yong Philhealth data mo para ma-change yong family/married name mo (bring your marriage cert) para wala nang conflict sa hospital bill.
Rowena, the nearest siguro is the Philhealth branch sa Taft cor Quirino, tabi lang ng LRT Quirino station.
hi po tanong ko lng kylan ko po pwdeng magamit ang philhealth ko para s mther ko. bgong member lng po ako nka abot po ako ng 1st quater kylan ko po ba pwedeng magamit ang philhealth ko. ilang month po ang kaylangan? kc operahan po ang mother ko sa knyang kidney.. ano po ang benefit n makukuha ko.
Hi Jhun, dapat puede nang gamitin sa April kasi nakabayad ka ng 3 months, pero i-sure mo sa Philhealth kasi baka ang umpisa ng count nila ay yong month of payment mo kasi new member ka lang.
Puede mo lang maging dependent ang mother mo if she’s 60 years old or more. Merong mga type of surgery na kelangang 9 prior monthly payments ang requirement, kaya you need to go to Philhealth, or call Philhealth. Tip: para ma-maximize ang Philhealth benefits, piliin ang hospital na malaki (tertiary) pero mas mura kung maningil, kasi mas malaki ang sasagutin ng Philhealth sa gasto kapag tertiary hospital, kaya lower bill at mas malaking bawas from Philhealth, mas okay. Make sure na yong doktor at yong hospital, parehong Philhealth-accredited.
gud am po sir/mam,
gusto ko po sanang malaman kung paano magpa reactivate ng membership ko sa philhealth. since MArch 2009 pa kc ako natigil sa paghuhulog dahil sa nagresigned na ako sa work. From 1996 to 2008 employed ako. pls. help me. thanks & god bless .
Hi, mj, just go to the nearest Philhealth branch with your ID, your birth cert. and 300 pesos for one quarter — the minimum payment. Go to the branch early kasi marami na ngayong nagpupunta. Check this Philhealth membership form. Hope you can visit again and share your experience or tips. Thanks too.
Hi, ask ko lang po ano po ba mga requirements pag iapapaactivate ko yung philhealth ko dati po me employed ngayon po nagtitinda ako, gusto ko sanang ipaactivate yung paghuhulog, thnks
Hi Jessielyn, oo, punta ka lang sa any Philhealth branch. Just bring your ID or your birth certificate, plus 300 pesos for one quarter. Punta ka nang maaga kasi maraming tao usually ngayon. Ganito ang Philhealth membership form.
hi po ulit. mg tanong lng po ako. katatapos lng po ng operation ng mother ko last week. now po kylangan niyang dumaan sa dialysis. ngyon po pwde bang magamit ang philhealth parA s pag didialysis nya 66years old n po sya & kaka member ko lng po ng 1st quarter.pwede n ba syang magamit at ano ang req.? thanks po & more power
Hi Jhun, April mo pa puedeng magamit, kasi three months within the 6 months prior dapat. Sa July 1st, 9 months na ang required, good at umabot ka sa 3 months. Covered ang dialysis as outpatient package. Magtanong ka in advance sa facility kung saan siya mag-dialysis — alam na nila kung ano ang iko-cover ng Philhealth, at para ma-sure mo pa na Philhealth-accredited sila. Sa voluntary member, you need receipt of Philhealth payment, birth cert mo, yong membership form na galing sa Philhealth, at baka hanapin pa birth cert ng mother mo to prove na over 60 na siya.
JHUN, I need to correct my response (I’ll email you too baka nabasa mo na ito), 9 months pala ang kelangan sa dialysis. Akala ko di siya kasama sa special medical services katulad ng childbirth at chemotherapy. Kaya sa October mo pa magamit. Pero magtanong ka rin sa dialysis facility, at sa Philhealth mismo.
Good day po!tanung ko lang po kung puwede ako pa member ng voluntary at kahit po walang tin # kasi nkalimutan ko na po tin # ko!at san po pinakamalpit na pde ako pamember!d2 po ako nakatira ngayon sa north caloocan camarin!at puwede po ba magamit agad pag binayaran ko yong 12months kahit sa mga branches lang ako nagbayad!
Hi Jho, oo, kahit walang TIN (as of last year na nag-enroll ang isang kilala ko, wala siyang TIN).
Malapit sa iyo ang 10th ave branch? Kung hindi naman, yong nasa Taft cor Quirino, LRT ka lang. Or yong sa Quezon Ave. The addresses are written above.
Hindi mo magagamit agad ang Philhealth. Kung payagan ka pang mabayaran mo ang Jan to March, puede na magamit sa April (kasi ang requirement 3 months of payment within the prior 6-month period) (pero hindi ako sure sa case mo ha, kasi magba-back pay ka kung papayagan ka, tanungin mo na lang Philhealth pag pumunta ka)
On July 1, nine months within the 12-month period prior na ang required to avail of Philhealth
meron po bang office ang philhealth malapit sa novaliches, fairview or quirino highway? ung malapit lng po sa novaliches para makapagpa member ako agad.kung meron po pwdng malaman exact location at contact number kung pwd? me baby kc akot breastfeed pa so d ako makabyahe ng malayo.
Hi Marver, wala pa sa Fairview. Ang nearest diyan is yong nasa Quezon Ave. Yong address at contact no. andito sa article above. Agahan mo na lang, before 8 am andon ka na para mabilis at makauwi ka agad.
paano po ba ang pagpunta sa quezon ave.branch ng philhealth kung d2 k galing sa novaliches bayan?
Hi Evelyn, ikot ka na lang thru Fairview at Commonwealth Ave. — palagay ko mas mabilis dito. Parang may mga Nova Bayan-Fairview diyan na jeep. Pag nasa Commonwealth ka na, sakay ka ng FX para mabilis — FX Quiapo. Pag nakalagpas na kayo ng EDSA, sabihin mo na sa driver pakibaba ka sa Philhealth. If I’m not mistaken, sa driver’s side siya, so tatawid ka pa. Para sure, bago ka sumakay, tanungin mo sa driver kung alam niya ang Philhealth Quezon Ave.
tanong ko po ung husband ko po ay dating employed at ngaun ay ofw na,nakita ko po ksama nun mga papel na prinocess sa POEA ay my kinaltas n 900pesos pr sa philhealth..pr po ba un sa contibution nia sa 2011?ibig sabihin hindi ko n po cy huhulugan hanggng dec.2011
Hi Evelyn, oo for 12 months na yong 900 pesos — mas lower ang contributions ng OFW. May Philhealth certificate pa ba ngayon na ini-issue sa OFW? O receipt na lang? Sa Philhealth receipt namin last year (hindi na OFW), nakalagay doon kung kelan ang next payment. Andiyan din kaya sa receipt ninyo?
pacencia na hindi ko napancin kc nun binigay ng agency un mga papers nia, nung time na aalis na siya at kasama nga iyon..nung tinignan ko nga my kasama resibo ng philhealth..d ko lng alam kung my certificate..pa email ko nlng sa kanya at i update kita..thank you sa reply…
ma’am myron po philhealth sa taguig city?
Hi rovic, sa lists ng branches, walang taguig. punta ka na lang sa Makati Service Office, ITC Building, 337 Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue, formerly Buendia.
hello po, what is the maximum day allowed para ma-reimburse kopo ang nagastos ko na gamot outside hospital pero within confinement parin po yun..
Hi alliah, pag-file ba ang ibig mong sabihin? File your claim within 60 days after discharge. Na-confine ka in a clinic? Ganon ba ang ibig mong sabihin sa outside hospital pero within confinement? Ang take home na drugs after confinement ay up to the limit sa total peso value ng drugs na allotted sa iyong case. Example, sa big hospitals ang maximum benefit for drugs ay 4,200 sa ordinary cases, 14,200 sa higher level of cases, etc.
hi di pa ako employed, pero isa sa mga requirements sa company na inaapplyan ko ngayon ay ung xerox ng philhealth ID. makukuha ko po ba agad un? wala pa dn po ako’ng philhealth number e. tska alam nyo po ba kng panu pmnta sa philhealth makati branch if galing sa San Andres Bukid Manila?
thanks!
may payment po ba ang registration? kung meron po how much? thanks!
Hi Kaye, dapat yong employer ang mag-report sa new employee sa Philhealth at thru the company mo na makuha ang number mo, kasi employee ka. Ibig sabihin, ang gagawin mo, maging voluntary member ka muna? 300 pesos ang minimum payment for Individually Paying or voluntary member. Bring ID or birth cert. Are you near Superhiway? Punta ka doon at mag-antay ka ng bus na PVP (yong blue na may white stars) Ayala via Buendia yan, papuntang Makati. Tanungin mo na lang kung alam ng conductor yong Philhealth sa Buendia. Malapit sa Mapua Buendia.
Good morning, I would to request for info about Philhealth ng Masa. I have in my full support two (2)relatives whom I think deserves a government care. I have an aunt (cousin of my late mother), not married, a senior card holder and not a member of Philhealth. I have a cousin, widow, a senior card holder and not a member of Philhealth because her kids were never been employed. Thank you.
Hi Guia, so admirable you’re caring for your relatives. according to the Philhealth website, you can go to the local office of the DSWD so they can assess if your aunt and cousin are qualified to join Philhealth’s Sponsored program. The DSWD will endorse them as beneficiaries of your Local Government Unit (LGU) or any Sponsor.
Dati po akong nagtatrabaho sa fastfood at pizza company at kasalukuyang nagtatrabaho ngayon bilang seafarer,gusto ko po sanang malaman kung ano ang dapat kong gawin para maituloy ang kontribusyon sa Philhealth.
Hi Leonardo, accdg to Philhealth, parang ordinary employee dito sa Philippines daw kapag seaman, kaya ikaw at employer mo merong contribution. may premium table sa website ng philhealth. for a monthly salary na 30K or higher, ang monthly premium ay 375 pesos from employer plus 375 din from you = 750 pesos. If you had Philhealth before, just submit your # to your employer. If wala pa, ask for a Philhealth membership form. Ask din your employer ano advice nila.
Hi! I would like to ask how long yung updating nyo when a company submitted ER2 form? Because until now, we have employees who don’t have their Philhealth number still. We enrolled them way back in 2010.. And now you no longer accept contributions without Philhealth number. How are we going to deal with that?
Hi! I would like to ask how long it will take Philhealth to update members when a company submit ER2 form to enroll employees? Because until now, several of our employees don’t have their Philhealth number yet. We enrolled them way back in 2010. And now, you no longer accept contributions without the PIN. How are we going to deal with that? This is very important to us.
ask ko lng po kung saan po ako pwede kumuha ng FORM 1 AND 2…CERTIFICATE OF CURRENT CONTRIBUTION..AT MDR…
Hi janine, kung malapit ka sa Philhealth branch sa Marc Bldg. sa Taft cor Quirino, madali raw kumuha ng MDR and other forms dito. Pero puede mong kunin ito at any branch. Bring your ID. Dalhin mo na rin recent receipts of payments if voluntary (baka lang tanungin).
If you’re an employee, ask form 1 and cert of contributions from your HR. If voluntary member, ask Form 1 from hospital. Form 2 is accomplished by hospital. Ganito ang Philhealth Form 1 and MDR. (possible na improved na yong forms)
Hi, K-ann, tama ka, dapat magbilis ang Philhealth sa processing. Complete ba ang submissions? (Employer shall submit duly accomplished Report of Employee – Members (Er-2) Form together with the accomplished M1a and M2 Forms to the nearest PhilHealth Office.)
Punta ka na lang kaya sa branch where you submitted your docs — baka ready na for pickup yong mga nos.
gud am ask ku lan po kun pwd mag mag paregister kun wla pang birthcertifcate ako, inaayos ku pa kc sa cityhall, nid ko narin kc yun philhealth no. ok lan po pa khit yun baptismal nalng muna dalin ko tnx.
Hi Daniel, yes, puede na yong baptismal, accdg sa Philhealth form. Look at this Philhealth membership form https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0BxgatWS7kMGoMDkxNTI5NWItYzc5Yi00MGU4LWJlZmItMjUyNmQxMTRiYmY4&hl=en&authkey=CLvyoUI
hi po..tnung ko lang po kapag new member plng sa philhealth.. kung pwede na magamit agad..tnx po paki response po agad
Hi Emerson, hindi magamit agad kapag new member. Example, gamitin mo this May, dapat nag-member ka na last February pa at nabayaran mo na ang 3 months (ito ay para sa ordinary illnesses). This is accdg. to the rules na nasa Philhealth website, pero may mga nag-co-comment dito na sabi sa kanila kelangan daw 6 months.
Starting July 1 this year, 9 months of prior payments na ang kelangan for all types of illnesses.
how will i know if im qualified to avail the maternity benefits of philhealth??
Hi Shella, may post ako dito about maternity benefits:
http://www.workingpinoy.com/2011/01/philhealth-maternity-benefits/
Basically, dapat Philhealth member ka at nakabayad ka ng 9 months within the past 12 months. tanong ka na lang uli pag meron di clear dito sa post na ni-refer ko.
My husband’s philhealth will expire on june 12, 2011. He’s in Oman right now and will be coming home this August. Is there a Philhealth office in Muscat where he can remit his payment? If none, can I pay his contribution in any philhealth branch here in Manila while he is away?
I hope to receive a reply from you as soon as possible.
Thank you.
Yes, Chona, you can pay your husband’s Philhealth at any branch. At the branch, get a small piece of paper called Order of Payment Slip. Fill up needed info: Name of member, Philhealth number, Address, tel no, category, amount you’re going to pay, months or quarter to be paid.
mag update ako ng benificiary ko sa phil health my philhealth na ako before so ngayun married na ako at my baby na ako so ngayun i aply ko sila ng philhealth or sya yung gawin kong dependent ano mga requirements mga dadalhin.thks
Hi Jonathan, madali na lang para sa iyo, kasi dati ka nang member.Just bring to any Philhealth branch your ID and the birth certificate of your baby and your marriage certificate to enroll your baby and wife as your dependents. Pa-xerox mo na rin para yon ang i-submit mo. For showing lang yong originals.
Jonathan, by the way, if your wife is a Philhealth member dati, let her write a letter telling that she’s deactivating her membership, kasi makikita nila sa records. Pero kung employed siya, di yata puedeng dependent siya. Mandatory kasi ang Philhealth sa employees. Pakitanong na lang kung this is your case. and paki-share na lang dito, if you have time, and thanks.
Hi Jo, thanks for the info. It will certainly help others.
Good Day po.taga laguna po ako..Sn.pedro Laguna. ask ko lang po kung pwede akong maging member ng Philhealth kahit po wala akong work . OFW po ang mister ko at kaya ko naman po mag hulog ng contribution monthly … paano po ang mag pa member..ano po ang mga requirements, pwede po ba akong maging member? san po ang pinaka malapit na office dito sa laguna..
thank you po .
Hi Ellen, kung dumaan sa POEA ang husband mo, meron siyang Philhealth, kasi mandatory yon. Ask mo siya. Kung hindi ka nailagay na dependent, send ka ng Member Data Form to him for signature, and then submit it to any Philhealth branch.
Pero kung hindi siya member, puede kang mag-member. Just bring your ID. Bring na rin your birth certificate. Gawin mo na lang dependent ang husband mo if he’s not a member. Siguro, the nearest is the branch near SM Southmall – from Alabang, lagpas lang ng Southmwall, right side. Parang BDO ang nasa baba. Ito branches sa Laguna: http://www.workingpinoy.com/2010/10/philhealth-branches-in-south-metro-laguna-cavite-batangas-lucena/ (OFWs 900 pesos; voluntary — 1,200 pesos per year) Paki-share naman dito kung may new policy pagpunta mo sa Philhealth, if you have time, and thanks.
may makukuha kana bang tulong kong ikaw nakabayad ng halagang 1300 sa philhealth
Hi Nurhaida, based sa rules, oo, magamit mo na after 3 months from date of payment. Halimbawa, this May, dapat naibayad mo yong 1300 na sinasabi mo last Feb. Pero, may nagsasabi rito sa mga comments na six months daw ang kelangan. Starting July, accdg to Philhealth, dapat 9 months na ang required prior payments.
,,hi,,im an old member ,,now i want to reactive,,what should i do,,and i am looking for the nearest branch,,,im from Dasmarinas Cavite,,
Hi Nors!
I’ve got 3 kids. The two are past 20 years of age so I need to sign them up for Philhealth memberships. The last kid, still a dependent (on my MDR) is 19 years old turning 20 in September. By age, is he qualified to be an individually-paying member? What is the right time for him to become a member so he would continue receiving the benefits at the time he drops out of the MDR in September?
Kind regards.
Hi again!
Just a correction, my youngest is just 18, turning 19 this September. He will no longer be my dependent come September 2012.
Hi, Ed, your question is interesting, as my daughter has just turned 18 too. I looked and looked at the rules for dependents, and it says “below 21 years old,” and those no longer dependents are “21 years old and above, so technically, 20 years and 11 months and 29 days ay hindi pa 21 years old (and below 21 years old), tama ba ako? pakitulungan mo nga akong i-analyze. So, example, sa case ng youngest mo, 20 years old siya sa Sep 2012, at 21 years old siya on Sep 2013 so puede pa siyang dependent until August 2013? So, enroll mo siguro in August 2013, para come Sep 2013, member na siya, tama ba? paki-correct na lang ako, kasi baka magkamali pa ako hehhehe.
Hi EM, yes, you can reactivate. Since datihan ka na, ID na lang kelangan, pero kung may birth cert ka diyan, dalhin mo na rin, baka lang gustong tingnan. Malapit ba itong branch sa iyo? MYP GBY Phil. Corp Bldg, Aguinaldo Highway, Tanzang Luma VII, Imus, Cavite Tel: (046) 4720468, (046) 4720501
Email: imus.pro4a@philhealth.gov.ph
If not, there’s a branch near BDO/Landbank malapit sa SM Soutmall. If you’re coming from Zapote, nasa left side mo, bago Southmall.
Hi Nors!
Thanks for that prompt reply. I did search the web and found no “minimum age requirements” for membership.
My real objective here is keep my son covered by Philhealth benefits with his transition from a ‘dependent’ to an ‘individually-paying member’.
Now I gained some insights from your website.
For my youngest kid, he would lose his benefits on September 20, 2011 when he turns 21.
I did some back-reading of the comments above and found out that a new member enjoys the benefits only after paying 9 months of contribution within one year prior to hospitalization.
My calendar says, my son has to be a member by August 2012, and may start paying monthly by December 2012. By September 2013, as he loses his “dependency”, he gains the benefits accorded to him by his ‘one year membership and 9 months of contributions’.
Sana tama ang logic ko hehehe! Baka mas alam mo ang pagpapa-ikot dito.
,,thanks for the reply,,,Nors,,one more thing,,luma kasi id ko,,pwede na ba ako mag pa replace ng new one,,and how about yung mga payments ko,,,makukuha ko pa ba yun?and if nag start na ako mag hulog,,how long before ma activate yung no ko,,?
Hi Ed, oo nga ano, sabi ko na nga ba baka meron akong ma-miss sa analysis ko. And I did. I did miss the prior-payment requirements.
You’re right too na wala yatang minimum-age requirement. (May requirement nga don na unmarried and unemployed children — implying na kahit very young, if married and employed, ay puede nang member kasi hindi na puedeng dependent).
Tama yong analysis mo na Dec 2012 dapat member na.
Best regards.
By the way pala, I thought of this only now, maganda siguro itanong natin minsan sa Philhealth ito, kasi technically dependent/member yong son mo before he turns 21 on Sep 2013 (kasi dependent mo siya). So kahit Sep 2013 lang siya start mag-pay, may prior-payment eligibility siya, di kaya? Matanong ko nga minsan, if I have time. What do you think? Pero kung ok lang sa iyo yong extra 900 pesos payment, ay puede na rin.
Hi EM, subukan mo ngang manghingi doon, kasi I’m not sure kung meron nang mga available IDs. When my husband paid her next year’s premium this May, hindi siya binigyan ng ID, he forgot kasi to ask. Anyway, receipt naman ang important sa pag-claim.
Kung matagal nang hindi ka active, I think three months muna ang lilipas before you can use. Pero yong iba dito na nagco-comment, sabi 6 months daw. Accdg to Philhealth, this July, i-implement na nila yong 9 months prior payments na requirement bago mo magamit.
Yong past payments mo, hindi na makukuha, walang makukuha, parang pure health insurance ito kasi ito. Ang benefit lang na makuha natin from past payments is pag senior o retired na tayo, meron tayong Lifetime membership — offered lang ito sa mga members who paid at least 120 months of premiums. (Check ko pa ha, 120 ba o 240? pero the idea is ganon)
Hi Nors,
Logically, your idea is correct. It never crossed my mind that on October 2013, Philhealth would be requiring my son a 9-month contribution and a year of membership while, while he is technically my “dependent” during that period. Parang double payment. Hopefully we could get an answer on this.
By the way, I started looking into this angle because two of my kids got hospitalized last Friday. They have each an HMO card. Kaya lang, Philhealth shoulders much of the medical bills for the first few days. My kids’ medicines and lab expenses reached 13k for three days. All were charged to Philhealth. The HMO card paid 27K for the rooms and Professional fees.
Sad thing is that, they are no longer covered by Philhealth, so I have to shed the 13K. Nalimutan kong lakarin ang membership nila last year.
Now, one of them is back to the hospital so I’m expecting another round of expenses. Sana, your friends here could also learn my lesson.
The HMO cardholders should also be aware. Based on agreed contracts with our employers, the HMO requires us to file Philhealth claims whenever we avail of hospitalization benefits. Kung malilit pa ang kids, parang OK lang. We get shocked when the hospital says your kid is old enough and your MDR is not updated. Your kid is no longer a dependent. Then we have to pay the Philhealth portion of the hospital bills. Lesson learned.
Kind regards.
Good day po!
ask ko po sana kung pwede ko ipa activate ang philhealth ng mister ko? ano po ba ang need na req. kasi po wala po sya sa pinas ngayon. wala po ako hawak na kahit ano reciept sa mga payments nya before. if pwede po.. mga magkano po kaya ang dapat kong bayaran?
MAraming salamat po.
Hi, Ed,
the information you shared is valuable, as I myself never thought of this issue before. So true when you said that all is okay, related to Philhealth, until we realize that our kids are all grown up and no longer our dependents.
Based on your experience, I might write a post related to this to warn others or to inform them, but I have to ask first Philhealth about the transition period I was talking about to be accurate.
Thanks, Ed, for the input. You write very well. Best regards.
Hi, Ellen, may sagot ako sa iyo noong May 18, sa itaas. Since wala kang hawak na Philhealth paper ng husband mo, punta ka sa Philhealth office, may address of branches sa unang sagot ko sa iyo, o dito sa article mismo na ito.
Bring your ID at marriage certificate, plus kung may ID yong husband mo, dalhin mo na rin, baka tanungin. Tanungin mo doon kung puede mong bayaran yong Philhealth ng husband mo kahit hindi mo alam yong number. Doon ka i-advice kung anong magandang gawin, kung magpa-fill up ka pa ng form sa husband mo, or puedeng bayaran na lang agad. Ang minimum payment ay 300 pesos (for 3 months). You can pay for more quarters — 600 or 1,200.
Hi Nors,
Thanks for taking the initiative in researching that hidden “transition period”. I think its a grey area which Philhealth may find hard to decide on.
I am now backreading on the exchanges above to learn more about the experiences of our fellow beneficiaries with Philhealth.
Knowing the details prevents us from spending beyond what is just and appropriate.
Kind regards.
Good morning po!
ask ko po sana kung ano po regional office code po ng philhealth office nyo sa Quezon Ave.?
Sana po ma-replyan po agadung tanong ko.
thanks.
Hi Geleen, wala naman akong makitang regional office code. basta it belongs to PhilHealth Regional Office NCR Central – Quezon City.
Hindi kaya location code ng hospital ang kelangan? But I could be wrong.

nag-apply po ako nung march then 3months ung bnyaranko. nung may naoperahan poh ako. pero nung april nag bayad poh ako for the whole year. wla pa ba ako mkhang tulong galing sa philhealth
nag-apply po ako nung march then 3months ung bnyaranko. nung may naoperahan poh ako. pero nung april nag bayad poh ako for the whole year. wla pa ba ako mkhang tulong galing sa philhealth?
Hi Maylyne, hindi. Mon to Friday lang ang Philhealth, the same with other government offices.
Hi Naomi, just bring your ID and birth certificate to the Makati branch along Buendia, now Gil Puyat. Malapit siya sa Mapua Buendia. 300 pesos for 3 months.
Hi Dana, yong binayaran mo nong march is from jan to march? tapos naoperahan ka nong May. Kung nireject ng ospital ang philhealth mo, maaaring nine-month prior ang requirement sa type ng surgery mo, o wala kang three months na payment before surgery. May illness na 3 months of prior payments ang kelangan, merong 9-months. Pero, starting July, lahat na ng illness ay required ang 9 months.
pinaasekaso k lang kc sa kptid k ung akin philhealt. cs operation me kc, buong taon bayad ng 2011 bayad na ako. hindi naman ung hospital ng reject sa amin kundi ung taga office ng philhealt. kc im not qualified pa daw.
Hi Dana, cs pala yong operation mo. Sadly, ang requirement ng Philhealth diyan is 9 months of payments within the 12-month period BEFORE cs. Kelangang member ka na at least 9 months before.
ask ko lang if okay lang ba na nagkakaltas ang employer namin ng philhealth contribution pero wala naman issue sa amin na philhealth number?…kapag ba kumuha kami ng number sa philhealth makikita b namin yung contribution namin dun na kinakaltas sa amin ng employer namin?…pls help..thanks
Hi, lui, hindi okay mag-collect kung hindi kayo Philhealth members. Na-enroll ba kayo? Duty nila na i-enroll kayo o i-report kung enrolled na thru previous employer (within 30 days of new employment), at para ma-enroll kayo, hingian kayo ng birth cert, o kaya kung member na kayo dati, hingian kayo ng Member Data Form. Pero kung na-enroll naman kayo, at wala pa yong mga cards, okay lang kung card lang ang wala pa, basta na-enroll na kayo. Kasi minsan nahuhuli ang cards. Puede kayong magtanong sa nearest Philhealth kung enrolled kayo talaga o kung remitted ang mga payments. (pero quiet lang muna ang investigation baka mapag-initan)
Hi there,
yung husband ko nsa guam and meron syang philhealth..nkakaltasan yun regulary pero receipt palang ang nasa kanya? pwde ba yung ipauwi niya ung receipt tapos magagamit ko ung philhealth niya when i give birth on September? anung kelangan kong gawin
Hi Jewelle, sabi mo nakakaltasan, ibig sabihin ang employer niya andito sa Philippines? Kung ganon, hindi na kelangan yong receipt kasi ang magce-certify ng claim form ay yong employer, dito sa form na ito Philhealth Claim Form 1. Ang second na kelangan ay itong form na nakalagay na dependent ka Member Data Form (MDF). Kung hindi ka pa nakalagay na dependent, good kung ma-amend mo na, submit ka lang ng bagong MDF sa Philhealth together with your marriage certificate. Pero sabi sa Philhealth, puede namang i-attach yong marriage certificate kung hindi pa na-amend by the time nanganak ka na.
Kung Individually Paying naman (no employer in the Phil), yes, you need the receipts, original and copies. Pakibasa lang itong post ko about Philhealth maternity benefits, at kung may question ka pa, ask mo lang dito and I’ll try my best.
Following your advise on May 16, 2011 as a reply to my May 15, 2011 query, I visited Philhealth Boni, Mandaluyong City branch to pay my husband’s contribution on June 10, 2011. However, I was informed that there are other requirements needed to be presented (i.e. CoE, working visa, etc.) other than the order of payment slip. Since I didn’t bring any, I was not able to make payment. It would have saved me time and money if you included this in your reply. May I respectfully suggest if you could please list down all necessary details to queries in the future. Thank you very much.
a
Hi Chona, very sorry for your wasted time. I think you got annoyed more about the time than the money. And thanks for coming back to express what you think, because I’m jolted about what I failed to include in my answer. From now on, I’ll think twice about answering questions like these. Thanks, best regards.
sir/mom atanung kulang gano katagal kung naka aply kana ng philhealt makuha ang i’d
Hi Ferdie, hindi ko sure, kasi ang husband ko, member, wala pang ID. Minsan kasi, may available IDs, minsan naubusan. Depende rin sa branch. Ang important, itago mo yong receipts mo, at yong computer printout na membership form, kasi yon ang titingnan pag mag-claim. Pero, punta ka pa rin sa Philhealth at magtanong, baka meron na.
hi madam, madam magpapamember pa lang ako sa philhealth, bale ang misis ko manganganak na sa december, pag ngayon lang ba ako nagpamember may makekredit ba sakin pag nanganak na misis ko kasi bagong member pa lang ako, salamat
Hi Dirk, ang alam ko, kung magmember ka ngayon, mababayaran mo pa yong 2nd quarter (april may june), pero hindi ko na sure kung magagamit mo this December kasi nine months of prior paid membership ang kelangan, parang kulang sa 9 months (pero siempre magtanong ka na rin pag nasa Philhealth ka, para galing talaga sa Philhealth ang sagot). Pero ganunpaman, okay na rin na magmember ka ngayon, para sa future health needs ng family.
gud pm poh..ask q lng poh qng may byad poh b pgkuha ng # s philhealth? ung mdr poh?…anu poh b mga requirements n kelangan poh?…tnx poh…plz txt nlng poh s # n2 09129534196..thank u so much poh…
gud am .. tanong ko lang po .. kung sakali po bang kumuha ako ng philhealth para sa trabaho .. pag nag pa member po ba kami eh mag babayad kagad kami at mag kano po ang bayad? oh… ikakaltas po ng kompanyang papasukan ko ung mga monthly? khit sang branch poh ba pede kumuha ng philhealth membership? need na poh ba naming magbayad ng 300 upon membership?
gud pm..panu poh ang pagkuha ng philhealt number..pinapakuha poh kasi kami ng agency na pinag applyan namin ng work..magbabayad din ba kami ng 300 sa pagkuha oh ung company na nanamin magbabayad nun?
Hi Liezel, ang dapat kasing process niyan ay yong employer na ang mag-enroll sa inyo sa Philhealth kung wala pa kayong Philhealth number (siempre papirmahin kayo ng MDR form). Pero, based sa mga nagtatanong dito, pinapakuha ng mga employers ang mga applicants sa Philhealth ng number. Eh ang Philhealth naman, gusto niya pag mag-register ka doon ay voluntary member muna, so you pay 300 pesos (for 3 months yon as voluntary member) para makuha mo copy ng MDR mo. May kausap ako kahapon na applicant, advice ko na tanungin niya sa Philhealth kung puedeng MDR lang ang kunin (o Philhealth number) at hindi magbayad ng 3 months for voluntary membership, kasi pang-employment naman (sa QC branch ito). Nag-tex siya at pinabayad daw siya ng 300. Ibig sabihin, kelangang mag-member muna ng voluntary at pay ng 300 bago bigyan ng MDR. Tanungin niyo na lang pagpunta sa Philhealth, baka nag-iba na sa branch na pupuntahan nio. Bring your ID and copy of birth certificate. Paki-share na lang dito kung pinagbayad kayo ng 300 ha. Thanks.
Yes, kahit saang branch puedeng mag-register.
helow po,pwede ba gamitin ang philhealth ko sa panganganak kahit hindi kami kasal ng asawa ko na apelyido ng asawa ko dadalhin ng magiging anak ko?
Hi lyka, puede basta ikaw yong Philhealth member. walang kaso yong kung ano ang magiging family name ng baby, o civil status mo. i suggest read mo rin ito Philhealth Maternity Benefits
hi, ask ko lang kasi may housemaid ako..almost a week pa lang sya naguumpisa, gusto ko syang applyan ng philhealth, first time ko po mag-aaply para sa housemaid..dati akong empleyado kaya lang i stopped working for 9 months already, hndi ko alam ang philhealth number ko…anong process ang gagawin ko para maapplyan ko ng philhealth ung housemaid ko. pls be specific kung ano anong form ang kailangan kong i-fill up, at ano anong requirements..tnx po!
hi po..good afternoon..
mam,ask ko lang po panu po pag hindi nakahulog sa Philhealth ng mahigit sa 5 years na? pwde pa ba hulugan un ulit at wala pong penalty ung ganun? still active pa rin po ba ung number mo? and isa pa po, panu po kung may mali sa spelling ng SURNAME mo? anu po ang mga dapat kong gawin? medyo nako-confuse na rin po kasi ako..
pa-help nman po mam..
salamat po..
pwede b akong mag apply true internet malayo kasi kami sa branch ng philhealtch
Hi guen, I suggest na somebody accompany na lang your housemaid to a Philhealth office para mag-enroll as a voluntary member. This is a copy of the Member Data Record (MDR) Form for membership application. Needed is her birth certificate or any ID (nasa form yong mga valid identification). 300 pesos is the minimum payment (3 months). Kasi kung i-enroll mo as employee, may mga papers na kelangan mo i-accomplish as an employer, at pati sa pagbayad, mas complicated. Ang pagkaalam ko, may certain number of employees before one is mandated to pay the employer-employee contribution — parang SSS, pero I’m not sure. Hope you ask Philhealth na lang if you like to pursue this.
Hi Imee, oo puedeng-puede ituloy ang Philhealth mo. Walang penalty. at hindi mo babayaran ang mga years na di nabayaran. About the number, kung 5 years ago, wala pa yatang Philhealth number noon. I suggest punta ka sa Philhealth, sabihin mo gusto mong ituloy yong membership mo as voluntary. Bring ID and your birth certificate, kasi mag-correct ka pa ng surname. Fill up the Member Data Record (MDR) Form. This is a copy of MDR. I suggest dalawang MDR ang i-fill-up mo — yong isa, to correct your surname. Tingnan mo yong MDR form, may portion doon na For Updating at For Enrollment. Yong isa, pang-enroll mo as voluntary. Bakit kelangan pa yong correction? Para mabilang yong pagbayad mo noon ng Philhealth — kasi pag 60 years old na tayo, puedeng may lifetime membership (free na,wala nang buwanang bayad) kapag nakapagbayad ka sa Philhealth ng 120 premiums (10 years). Pero, magtanong ka na rin doon kung kelangang 2 forms pa.
Hi Michael, wala pang online enrollment ang Philhealth, nasa planning stage pa lang. So you need to go to a branch. Then later on you can pay thru other facilities.
Tnx po sa suggestion., naisip ko mas madali magfile ngvoluntary for my housemaid, nagprint ako ng membership form pinafill up ko sa housemaid ko w/ her signature., ako n personally ung pumunta sa philhealth, then i paid 300 pesos for her initial premium., nagissue n dn ng philhealth id., as employer., ako n lng maghuhulog ng contribution nya kht voluntary ung pinaregister nmn.!
Hi Guen, thanks for coming back and sharing the process you took. Puede palang representative ang registration kahit sa voluntary category. This will help those asking about online registration kasi malalayo raw sila. Planning stage pa lang ang online. So ngayon, puede pala silang mag-fill-up ng forms at isa na lang ang magbiyahe. At good na merong available IDs sa branch na pinuntahan mo.
hello po..
may itatanong po sana ako..
kung pwede na po ba akong magka philhealth kahit 17 pa lang po ako..at tapos mabebenipisyohan ko po mga kapatid ko pati half sister ko po???
sana po masagot…salamat po
Hi shermelle, puede kang maging member kahit 17 ka pa lang basta hindi ka dependent ng ninuman, pero hindi mo puedeng maging dependent ang mga kapatid mo. Ang puede lang maging dependent ay anak o parents. Nasan mga parents mo, shermelle? I admire you for thinking about your welfare and that of your siblings. Makakatipid kung parents mo ang mag-apply kasi sa 100/month na premium ng isang parent, covered na kayo lahat as dependents, basta younger than 21. Puedeng ikaw ang mag-apply for your parent, papirmahan mo lang yong form.
Kung SSS o Pag-ibig, puedeng magbenefit ang mga siblings mo later on.
hi OFW ung husband ko, and yung nasa kanya lang isa resibo without the philhealth number, pero constantly naman nababawasan sila ng philhealth hulog..ill be giving birth on september kaya sana gusto ko malinaw lahat and panu ba sya gngmit sa hospital anung procedure in using the philhealth benefits .he came back here last december 2010 then left pinas again march 2011 nagbayad na daw sila automatically na 1k sa employer dito sa pinas
Hi Jewelle, yes magagamit mo ang Philhealth kasi yong binayaran niya for one-year — probably from march 2011 to feb 2011, or kahit Jan to dec 2011. Ask him, nasa receipt yong validity dates. Ask him to send a copy of the receipt, then visit any Philhealth branch to get a Member Data Record (MDR) para merong kang ipakita sa hospital. I’m not sure kung merong branch na puede mong makuha yong MDR kahit wala kang kopya ng receipt. Kung meron kang madaanan, baka puede mong subokan. May post ako about claiming maternity benefits dito.
liezel rosario:
hi gud eve poh..ask ko lng poh kung magkano ang hulog every month pag self employed? may anak na poh ako pro di ako kasal..pede ko prin bng mging dependent ang parents ko bukod sa anak ko? salamat poh..
Hi Liezel, 100 ang payment per month. 300 ang minimum payment (3 months). Yes, basta your parents are 60 years old or older. I-list mo sila sa Member Data Form. Bring your child’s birth cert and your parents’ birth cert para makita yong edad nila (pag wala, senior citizens’ ID puede na basta andon date of birth; cedula pede rin palagay ko)
hello po, ask ko lng po, me tita po ako na senior citizen, wala po cyang anak nakatira po cya kasama ng mommy ko, magiisang buwan na po cya sa ospital and honestly umaabot na po ng 230 k plus bill namin, philhealth member po ako , since aunt ko lng po cya di daw po pede cya maging benificiary ko pero nung nagapply ako cya po at ang mommy ko benificiary na nilagay ko. kaso po pag check ko sa philhealth wala ako declared na benificiary. bka nmn po merong way na maiaaply ko cya as benificiary para mabwasan man lng ung bills nmin, if ever me way po paki sabi nmn po or email me pls. salamat ng marami
ahh ganon po ba…nasa canada mama ko tapos papa ko naman nasa manila..
uso kasi ngayon ang magkasakit kaya naisipan ko na mag apply ng philhealth para kung anong mangyari hindi malaki mababayaran sa hospital kung mangyari man..maraming salamat po sa pagsagot…
god bless po..
Hi shermelle, halimbawa lang there are reasons why your father can’t enroll you as dependents, I suggest you suggest to your mama to download, print, fill out this Philhealth Member Data Record form, sign it and then send thru mail, tapos ikaw na ang pumunta sa Philhealth at mag-enroll. payment is 300 for 3 months, puede ring 1,200 for one year or 600 for 6 months. bring copies of your birth certificates. Meron kasing nagsabi dito na inenroll niya yong housemaid niya na hindi kasama yong housemaid, so ibig sabihin puedeng representative.
ahhh thank you po sis sa information…
Hi jewel, sad to hear your story. mahirap talaga ang walang anak minsan. but she’s lucky andiyan kayo. and may God continue to bless you. About Philhealth dependent, anak, asawa at parent lang ang puedeng dependent. kapatid, aunts, uncles — hindi. pag parent, dapat 60 years old and above. ang laki ng bill. hindi ko alam kung mag-qualify kayo ng assistance from PCSO, or sa social department ng hospital. visit the PCSO website, if you like, may list of requirements don for assistance. may alam din ako na kinausap nila mga doctors for discounts. hope you receive help in various ways.
thanks Nors, oo nga ang laki ng bill, lalaki pa yan kasi nakaconfine pa rin cya, so pcso na lng pla chance nmin kahit papaano. hey , i know its out of the question sa thread. ung tita ko po kasi 2 hospital an , ung isa sa family clinic which dun tlaga malaki and nagkacomplikasyon pa cya, and bill nmin dun eh 180k +, and then 11k + lng ang senior discount nya, we felt na there’s something wrong sa computation as my tita is entittled for 20 % . im hoping to find some informaiton regarding this kung paano kami makakhabol /or complain if ever. we really felt that this hospital cheated us big time.
thanks.
Hi jewel, kung hindi nio pa nabayaran ito, puede niong i-check in detail yong bill, baka merong procedures o drugs doon na hindi naman nagamit o na-perform. at i-question nio. hindi ko pa masyado na-research yong law on the senior’s discount, kung paano yon sa hospital. I need to research muna. Hope you find a solution.
gud day po, ask ko lang po kung anu ggwin ko, 2 companies na pnasukan ko under agency, knakaltasan ako ng agency namin but until now wala clang bnbgay na philhealth id #.panu ko po b ma verify if meron na akong philhealth#
Hi leda, nag-fill up ka ba ng Member Data Record (MDR)form at ibinigay mo sa unang agency? Nagbigay ka ba ng kopya nito sa second agency? Or nag-member ka ba ba dati sa Philhealth before ka pumasok sa first agency at binigyan mo na lang sila ng kopya? Ang Philhealth membership, puedeng thru employer, pero pa-fill-up-in ka ng MDR. O kaya hihingan ka ng MDR copy pag member ka na dati pa. Visit any Philhealth branch and ask if your employers have remitted your premiums. Wala pa silang online verification system.
hi,gud am!dati po ako ofw ng august 2008 to march 2010 ang hulog ko po sa philhealth ay august 2008 to august 2009 lang po..pwde po ba ako mka vail ng maternity kc manganganak po ako sa november..panu po ang pwde ko gawin..salamat po..god bless
Hi Stella, kung magbayad ka ngayon ng Philhealth, para na lang sa health care needs ng baby mo.
Kasi kahit mabayaran mo itong july to october, 4 na months lang ito. Ang requirement kasi 9 months ang nabayaran mo within the 12-month period prior to child delivery. Kung OFW ka pa sana, kung ano yong dates na andon sa receipt mo, yon magagamit mo, walang prior dates na kelangan. Anyway, 5k din lang naman ang Philhealth benefit sa normal delivery. plus 1,500 prenatal kung may receipts/paperwork. Kung makakita ka ng affordable maternity package, parang nabawasan na rin naman ang gasto mo. Kung CS, ok rin ang assistance ng Philhealth kasi based sa actual expenses ang benefit, but also with limits, pero we hope and pray na it’s a normal delivery for you.
Pero magtanong ka rin sa iba ha, kasi baka meron akong na-miss na recent Philhealth rulings.
pwde ko pa po ba habulin sa hulog para mka avail ako kc ndi nako ofw at sa receipt ko tul august 2009 last hulog ko.pnu po ba pwde po ba mgkano po dapat ihulog sa november po kc ako manganganak?tanx
Hi Stella, hindi na kasi puedeng bayaran ang nakalipas nang quarter. Ayaw nilang tanggapin ang RETROACTIVE payments lalo na hindi lang isang quarter ang kelangang mong punuan. Ang puede mo lang bayaran ngayong August, kung gusto mong i-activate ang membership mo, is this current quarter — itong june july august. Pero hindi mo siya magamit agad sa November, kasi kulang sa 9 months na kelangan for maternity. Pero puede kang tumawag sa Philhealth 637-9999 baka lang meron akong na-miss na balita. 100 pesos per month ang membership for voluntary nonpro (300 pesos for 3 months –minimum payment)
61 years na po ako. nagapply po ako sa philhealth office sa imus ng lifetime membership pero and sabidaw ni ma,am mercy loyola kulang daw ako sa contribution. how come when if fact from mwss (medicare from july 1990 to maynilad from 8/1997 up to my early retirement on j/o/2008 naghuhulog ako sa philhealth. pls enlighten me
Hi Rolando, based sa sinabi mo, qualified ka for lifetime membership kasi you pass the only two requirements: age of retirement and ten years or 120 months of Philhealth membership (including Medicare membership). Bakit sabi daw? Hindi ikaw ang nag-apply? Siguro hindi nagrason yong representative mo. Baka ang tiningnan lang yong Philhealth records. Meron ka bang maipakitang payslip o document na may deduction ka for Philhealth noong Medicare years? Or puede na sigurong record of MWSS employment ( you can request from MWSS). Ibig kayang sabihin hindi nagremit nang completo ang MWSS sa Philhealth kung wala kang at least 10 years?
In the meantime, Rolando, while inaayos mo yong lifetime membership mo, you can be a dependent of one of your children. Use also your senior ID for an additional 20 percent discount.
good am. kumukuha po ako ng MDR ko sa las pinas branch pero hindi po ito naibigay dahil wala daw akong philhealth I.D. kahit nagbabayad ang company na gamit ang SSS number ko. last june 09, 2011 nagpasa kami para sa update namin. bakit until now hindi pa nagkaroon ng magandang result. kinailangan ko ang MDR dahil palabas nako ng hospital to think isa yon sa requirements. Ano po ba nangyayari sa offices bakit walang magandang result??? thank you
Hi Narme, kayo ba mismo ang nag-submit ng MDR update form sa Philhealth? O nag-pass kayo ng form sa company ninyo? Yong company ninyo ay nagsubmit ba talaga sa Philhealth? Bakit nakasama ang SSS number? Hindi naman kelangan ang SSS number sa Philhealth form, TIN pa, merong slot doon sa form.
Baka ibig sabihin ng Las Pinas, wala kayong Philhealth record, kasi ang dami namang wala pang Philhealth ID — bakit magiging requirement yon to get an MDR? I got an MDR for my mother (sa Taft-Quirino branch) — wala siyang Philhealth ID — nakakuha naman ako. Ang tanungin ninyo sa Las Pinas branch, meron ba kayong record na nakabayad kayo ng monthly premiums.
gud day!!! tanong ko lang po kung mggmit ko po ba ang philhealth sa minor surgery? i have this painful cyst at my earlobe at gusto ko po sana ptanggal na. OFW po ang husband ko. mggmit ko pb ang philhealth pr d2 s minor surgery… hoping for your response…. tnx!
Hi Cherry, oo, you can use Philhealth for minor surgery. Find a surgeon na accredited sa Philhealth na working in a Philhealth-accredited hospital/clinic. Pag magpa-consult ka na, sa receiving station, ask the nurse kung sino ang surgeon na Philhealth-accredited. Ask the doctor if you can use Philhealth for the surgery para sure. Check yong validity dates ng Philhealth receipt ng husband mo and make sure na your date of your surgery is within the validity dates.
Nais ko po mag-apply.
Hello. matanong ko lang po, kasi naging member na po ako ng Philhealth noong April 2008, nagtrabaho po ako sa isang callcenter, pero tumagal lang po ako hanggang July 2008. Pano po kung gusto ko magbayad uli as Voluntary, medyo sakitin po kasi ako malaking tulong ung benipisyo na ganto. Pwede po ba na ang bayaran ko is 1 year na agad, Jan 2011-Dec 2011 para wala na pong hassle?
Hi Jennifer, punta ka lang sa any branch of Philhealth and apply to become a voluntary member. This is a copy of the form http://goo.gl/S2CBb Bring your ID or birth certificate. If you have dependents — children or parents 60 years old and above — bring their birth certificates, and enroll them as your dependents. Pay 300 pesos (minimum payment, that’s for 3 months) or more, if you like.
Hi Cheska, oo, puede kang magbayad in advance, pero hindi na yong lumipas nang quarter. If you enroll this month, ang mabayaran mo na lang retroactively ay yong July — bale part of 3rd quarter — kasi nasa 3rd quarter pa tayo. Ang bayaran mo is July 2011 to June 2012.
Hindi ko lang sure kung strictly sa set quarter sila — na 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th ang pagbabayad — Pakitanong mo nga kung puedeng ang bayaran mo is June 2011 to May 2012. And if you have time, pakishare na lang dito kung puede yong ganon. And thanks.
Hi, pls help me in processing my brothers philhealth.. naca confine sya now and as per his previous employer jan to april 2011 lang daw ang contri na malalgay nila sa cert.. can we just pay the remaining months from may- sept para mgamit namin ang philhealth sa paglabas nya? pls help.. thanks!!
Hi Obette, hindi naman surgery yong hospitalization ng brother mo? Kasi sa regular illnesses, ito ang requirement: Payment of at least three monthly premiums within the immediate six months prior to confinement. Kaya, sa palagay ko, puede kayong mag-claim. Punta ka lang sa any Philhealth branch and ask for your brother’s MDR or member data record, plus yong cert from former employer, at yong claim form (hingi ka na rin sa Philhealth), at magtanong ka na rin don, kasi merong mga serious illnesses, such as surgery na required ay 9 months. Maternity din, 9 months. Sa intindi ko, meron kang 3 monthly payments (Feb March April 2011) within sa 6 months (Feb to July) before hospitalization. If you have time, puedeng mag-comment ka rito later on kung na-qualify kayo? and thanks, and get well soon to your brother.
Hi there!,
Ask lang po kung yung Philhealth buendia e yung nabanggit mo na malapit sa Mapua Buendia?, please answer po sir/mam or anyone here, thanks!
Hi Amenko, oo, yon ang Philhealth Buendia, the one near Mapua.
This site helps a lot of people
Thanks a lot Nors!
Nors help naman, if I am coming from ayala avenue for example makati med, ano ang bus/jeep na pde ppnta ng Philhealth buendia?, nakita q na sa google maps e but I am not sure ano bus/jeep, help please, at paano naman pabalik ng ayala avenue from philhealth buendia?, thanks thanks!
Hi Amenko, yan ang sinasabi nating malapit na malayo. Kaya kong lakarin yan kung ako, kasi mahilig akong maglakad. Pero… From Makati Med, cross Ayala to go to the Buendia side of RCBC, or kung mas malapit sa iyo yong sa Mercury Buendia, puede rin, para wait for a jeep na MRT BUENDIA. Malapit lang yan, about 2 blocks. Lagpas ng Mapua, then Yupangco, then ITC (where Philhealth is). By the way, sana diyan pa rin ang Philhealth ha, pero yan pa rin ang nasa Philhealth website.
Ikaw naman, amenko, siempre kung pabalik, balik ka na (joke!), or are u joking ba? Baka kilala mo ako, at nagjo-joke ka lang. Or bago ka lang ba sa Makati? Ride ka uli ng jeep going to LRT Taft — pabalik. Take care.
HI nors,
yes, nagamit namin ang philhealth ng brother ko.. nag secure lang ako ng certificate of contribution sa dating employer nya, nagpa assess ako sa philhealth – Sta. lucia branch, and nag pa change status from private to individual payee..together with CF1, and yung receipt amounting to 500.00 (payment from May- Sept), that’s it.. naka discount kami.. at d biro ang discount huh.. malaki rin..:-).. Thank you sa mga STAFF ng PHILHEALTH – STA. LUCIA.. nakalimutan ko lang itanong ang name nung nsa window pero d ko mkklimutan yung kindness at assistance na binigay nya smin ng husband ko nung nag pa process kami. Also yung miss sa 2nd floor cashier.. and yung guard na andun.. thank you PHILHEALTH.. keep it up!!
Hi Obette, thanks for sharing your great experiences with Philhealth. Alam mo, meron ding nag-share dito na madali lang daw ang processing diyan sa Sta Lucia branch of Philhealth. Suerte ang mga malalapit diyan at helpful ang mga andiyan. Meron branch kasi na medyo kulang sa pag-intindi. Meron nga ditong nagcomment (pregnant siya) na sabi raw ng Philhealth sa kanya ay bumalik na lang daw siya kapag manganak na, pero wala namang instructions kung ano ang dapat gawin. Kaya, applaud natin ang Philhealth Sta Lucia branch! Hope makapag-post ako ng The Best Philhealth Branches in NCR, at the best siguro ang branch na yan. Yong sa Taft, maganda rin ang feedback ng ate ko diyan.
Hi Nors,
clap clap to the maxx din for you..
kasi d ka nagsasawa sa pagsagot sa mga inquiry.. dt attitude of urs is highly appreciated.. cheers!!
by the way, question ulit.. kanino nga pala mag ask ng certificate na yung partner mo ay d na active member ng philhealth? nung nagkaron kasi sya ng sarili nyang business, (small time lang)naging dependent ko na sya..
Hi Obette, ang galing naman ng cheers mo, nakakatuwa at nakakainspire. Bale ireregister mo pa lang siyang dependent sa Philhealth kaya you need the certificate? Siya na mismo ang magsulat, at mag-sign, parang statement lang — Statement of Discontinued Philhealth Membership. I-state lang niya name, address, age at kung kelan siya last member, at nag-stopped na siya paying since ___. Then i-mention na In this regard, I am requesting Philhealth to allow my wife Obette ___ to enroll me as her dependent. Ay teka muna, employed ka yata? Isip ko sa business ka rin. Hinahanap pa ba ito sa company? Parang enough na yong MDR form (updating). Pero, not sure. Share ka uli ha. Thanks
Hi nors..
Inspiring ba??.. kc ok ‘tong site mo, nasasagot mu lahat ng inquiry, d tulad ng sa ibang site, naka hang lahat ng questions, d mu alam kung natulungan ba nila yung nagtanong o na tegi na kakaantay ng sgot..
..
Anyways.. naka register na sya as my dependent.. last yr ko pa naayos yun kc.. d ba mag kaka conflict just in case kailanganin nya, ung philhealth acct ko ggmitin, (anyway pag d ka na naman nakapag hulog ng ilang taon considered inactive ka na diba..) ni register ko kasi sya sakin para wala akong problemahin sa hospital bills.. proven ko na discount at naitutulong ng philhealth.. kaya di ko pinapabayaan ang contributions ko.. sa payslip ko un agad tinitignan ko kung nkapag contribute ang employer ko for this period..
thank you nors.. and more power to your site!
What floor ang Makati Office sa ITC Bldg? I’ll try to call all the numbers, but nobody answer the phone. Please let me know the exact address or floor of your Makati Office.
Thanks and God Bless!
god pm po sir nor
ask ko lng po, kc last oct. 2010 po nag apply po kming mag asawa ng philhealth card sa barngay nmin!!!! so masyado pong matgal before na release ung card actually yesterday lng po namin na recieve!!!! pero last Feb. this year nag apply ako ng philhealth card ako at nahulugan ko na ng 2nd quarter na ako!!! so now merun n akong 2 philhealth card ano po ba ng dpat kong gmitin if ever po!!! kc syang nman ung bngay skin ng barngay nmin byad na daw po ung ng 3 years!!!! please help me po!!! what to do!!! salamat po!!!!
Hi Maylyne, palagay ko hindi ka mabe-blame na 2 ang Philhealth numbers mo, kasi nga naman sa tagal… Pero isa lang talaga dapat ang number. Parepareho naman ang benefits whether sponsored o paying, so maganda yong libre na for 3 years, tama ka. Magtanong muna ako ha about what to do? Pero palagay ko, huwag mo nang bayaran yong 3rd quarter, para mag-close na siya. Bale sa sponsored card, Family Health Card yan, di ba? The whole family na. At nakasulat diyan yong validity dates? Sagutin uli kita pag sure na ako sa reply ko. Best regards.
Hi Nympha, these are the Makati tel nos: 897-1598, 897-2759, 897-6329, 897-3337, 899-4506. The address is 337 ITC Building, Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue, Makati City. Ang alam ko ground floor siya. Malapit siya sa Mapua Makati.

yes sir Noy galing kc ito sa barangay namin eh!!! may expiry date from April 2011 up to March 2012 lng pwd!! then i renew daw ulit!!!!!!!!! wait ko lng po ung reply nyo bout that ah!!!!!!! THanks a LOT!!!!!!!! God BLESS
Helow Ma’am/Sir,
Good Day! ask ko lng po kung ano po requirements para po mkuha ko po ung phil health no. ko po kc nag punta n po ako sa office nyo ngunit chineck po nila ung name ko wala po sila nkita sa files nila but my employer was deduct on my philhealth in payslip?? kc sabi skin ng employer ko hinuhulog daw po nila ung philhealth ko sa sss no. ko kc wala p po me philhealth no. but i’ll check in ur office wala po silang nkita n hinulugan ako ng employer ko.. bka po pwede nyo po akong ntulungan d2.. thank you
Hi Dan, ano yon? yong employer mo hinuhulog yong Philhealth mo sa sss no. mo kasi wala kang Philhealth no? hindi puede yon at hindi dapat ganon. Ang gagawin dapat ng employer mo ay bigyan ka ng Philhealth registration form na i-fill-up mo at isa-submit nila sa Philhealth para magkaroon ka ng Philhealth no.
Dapat tingnan mo na rin kung hinuhulog talaga yong SSS ninyo.
Bakit hindi sinabi doon sa Philhealth kung ano dapat ang gawin mo?
Humingi ka ng Philhealth membership form sa Personnel o HR ninyo (puede rin sa Philhealth kung walang forms ang company ninyo) at i-fill-up mo, at i-submit mo sa Personnel o HR. Comment ka na lang uli dito kung anong development.
Dan, ito ang mga requirements: yong Philhealth Member Registration Form, and your birth certificate. Kung married ka, marriage certificate din. Kung may anak ka, birth certificate din. Para masama sila na dependents mo.
ask ko lng po nu sakyn ko f galing me d2 guadalupe makati?s makati po me maaply ndi ko alm pa punta dun nu nearest landmark po dun?nu dn req’t dalhn? tanx,.pwd dn f s boni mandaluyong me aply,nu sakyn ko and nu landmark?
Hi chovelyn, from guadalupe, sakay ka ng jeep na LRT Taft Buendia. Ang mga jeep yata na ito nasa Estrella. Kung malayo ang Estrella sa iyo, sumakay ng bus Ayala LRT o Alabang o Baclaran, bumaba ka ng Buendia. Lumakad ka papunta sa mga jeep na Bel-air to LRT Taft (malapit sa Shell station). Sabihin mo ibaba ka sa Philhealth. Malalampasan mo ang Makati Ave, Petron station, SSS. Kung nakita mo ang Mapua, bumaba ka na, kasi lumagpas ka na, pero malapit pa rin siya sa Mapua. Nasa ITC Bldg siya.
Pag sa Mandaluyong, sakay ka ng bus punta Cubao, Crossing, etc. Baba ka ng Boni, sa susunod na major stop. Overpass ka. Sakay ng jip Pinatubo o Kalentong. Sabihin mo baba ka ng Rustans o Philhealth. Lagpas ito ng munisipyo. Best regards.
Hi.. Philhealth member po ung wife ko employed as jan-march 2011 and voluntary as of april-present.. My question is ung feb-march na rf-1 ng wife q d pa xa napareciv sa philhealth ofc.. Rf-1 w/ OR.. Pde bang kme nlng mismo magpareciv nun? And ung january kc we doubt na hinda pa bayad pero sbe naman bayad n daw ang problem lang d p kumpleto ung philhealth # ng ibang employees? If ever d p nga byad, Is philhealth accepting late payment for private sector? My wife is giving birth kc this oct.. Prior sa 9 mos. contributions need niya ung january eh..
Hi Paulo, yes, kelangang paid yong Jan to Sep. Yong past ng quarter, hindi na puedeng bayaran. This month of Sep, ang puedeng bayaran is July Aug Sep. Diyan sa RF-1 na hawak mo, Jan ang binayaran? Kasi ang pagbabayad ng for the month of Jan is Feb 1 to 15 (deadline 15th). Punta na lang sa Philhealth and request for your wife’s MDR, para makita mo kung nabayaran yong Jan. About pagpa-receive, palagay ko, puede nang kayo ang magpa-receive, kasi sa Pag-ibig at SSS, puede, baka lang puede rin sa Philhealth.
Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 10:31 PM
HI Nors, ask me lang kapag ba ini apply me ang parent me ng Philhealth anu-ano ba ang mga requirements, ok lang ba ang zerox copy ng merriage contract or i need to submit authenticated merriage cont. tnx.
HI Edralin, you mean ba parents mo ang i-apply mo na dependents? Dapat 60 years old and above na sila. You need to show their birth certificates or any document showing their birth dates. Bring also your birth cert, para proof na parents mo sila. Sabi sa Philhealth website, certified copy, lalo yong sa iyo (puedeng yong galing sa munisipyo o sa NSO).
hello good day ma’am,sir,ask ko lang po kung pano ko malalaman ang ID number kasi po nawala ko na ung ID ko.nag hinto po ako mag hulog year 2001 from my work kaso po nag stop na ako mag work that year.ngayon po gusto ko ulit ituloy ang pag huhulog ko kaso po diko na maalala ang number ko.please help me.thanks a lot and god bless you.
Hi Maris, punta ka na lang sa any Philhealth branch and then fill out the Philhealth Member Registration Form. Check “For Updating”. Bring your ID, dalhin mo na rin birth certificate, baka lang hanapin. Check “Individually Paying” kung wala kang employer. Sabihin mo doon na member ka last 2001 pero nawala mo ID mo. You can also bring docs for dependents http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/09/philhealth-dependents/ 300 pesos minimum payment (3 months)

THANKS
Hi Maylyne, yong Sponsored na lang ng barangay ang gamitin mo. Huwag mo na lang muna ituloy yong sa nakuha mo sa Philhealth UN. Pero itago mo lang yong MDR o receipt mo from Philhealth UN (meron pala diyan? full office ba yan? wala pa yata yan sa list sa Philhealth) kasi may Philhealth number yan. Ituloy mo na lang yan kapag hindi ka na sponsored. Sabi mo, bayad na yang Sponsored ng 3 years. Tingnan mo yong date sa card. Oct 2010 to Sep 2011 ba? o Oct 2010 to Sep 2013? Kung one year lang ang nakalagay diyan, ibig sabihin renewable every year, kung 3 years yong sinabi nila. Bago mag-expire, make sure ipa-renew mo sa barangay, para walang buwan na gap. Dito ko kinuha yong sagot ko sa website ng Philhealth:
3. How can a Sponsored Member continue PhilHealth membership when his/her PhilHealth ID expires?
To continue his/her PhilHealth membership once his/her ID expires and granting that it has not been ‘renewed’, a Sponsored Member should enroll as an Individually Paying Member and pay his/her premiums within the calendar quarter or before the expiry date as reflected in the PhilHealth Identification Card.
Ito naman, pareho sa case ng OFW na Sponsored:
9. I am a PhilHealth member sponsored by an LGU; is it still necessary for me to pay my PhilHealth membership as an OFW?
If a member is sponsored by an LGU and the membership is still active, the member shall pay for his/her PhilHealth membership as an OFW when the coverage of his/her sponsored membership expires.
Pero magtanong ka pa rin sa iba, Maylyne, para sure na sure na sure.
Sa may Taft po un corner po un mismo!!! hnd ko matandaan ung exact street!!!! yes po ser NORS April 1, 2011 March, 2012 po ung nksasulat!!! sabi nga po i need to renew it!!!! Sige po mag tatanong din po ang mismo dun sa Philhealth Office or sa barangay na inaplayan if may idea din po sila bout this!!! i’ll post here sir Nors if malaman ko na po ang sagot!! Thanks sir Nors for the INFO and long patience!!! GOD BLESS U PO!!!

mam gudmorning,, ask ku lang po,,, kasi nag work po ako dati,, eh ng fill up po ako ng form ng philhealth ,, after 3 days po na ng fill up ako ng form ng philhealth ng start na po ako ng work,, eh ang kaso ehh 1 nga 1 week lang eh ng resign na po ako,, posible po bang na issuehan na ako ng philhealth number,,, ??? panu ko po ba 2 malalaman ,, kkung na issuehan na ako oh hindi,, kasi hindi nmn po pwedeng kumuha ng panibago dvah?,, tnx
Hi Elias, ipareactivate mo yong dati, lalo na kung maraming years yon — para maqualify ka sa Lifetime free membership upon reaching the age of 60 (needs 10 years of contributions). If you forgot the number, sabihin mo lang sa Philhealth, kasi parang walang numbers noon noon.
Sa new Philhealth membership form, icheck mo yong “For Updating”. Bring your ID or birth cert. at 300 pesos for one quarter.
Hi Kristine, go to a Philhealth branch with your ID and ask for an MDR. Kapag sabihin na hindi ka pa member, ibig sabihin, hindi naprocess yong mga previous applications mo. Kung ganito, fill out a Philhealth membership form as Individually Paying. Check “For Enrollment”. Pay 300 pesos for one quarter, so you can get an MDR.
Hi Rhadson, pareho kayo ng kaso at tanong ni Kristine, pakibasa na lang yong sagot ko sa kanya.
ask ko lang, kase i-uupdate ko ung mga dependants ko, b4 kse,wlang nkalagay sa dependant ko,ngaun gusto ko ilagay ang parents ko..is it ok kahit hindi pa 60years old ang mama ko?at anung requirements ang ddlhin ko?okay lang ba na marriage contract nalang ng parents ko ang ddalhin ko together with my birthcert and other requirements from the employer ko?tnx

Hi Editha, dapat 60 years old or older ang mga parents bago sila maging dependent. Kung gusto mo, ikuha mo ang father mo ng membership, tapos dependent niya ang mother mo, para isa na lang ang maging member.
http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/09/philhealth-dependents/
i see.. so, ang father ko lang pala ang pwede kong maging dependent kase 65 na cia. Anu po ang requirements para mailagay ko cia as my dependent?okay nb yung marriage contract nya at birthcerth ko?o need pa din ang birthcert ng papa ko?
Hi Editha, birth cert mo at birth cert sana ng papa mo, yon ang required, pero sabi naman sa Philhealth website, “or any document attesting to parents’ dates of birth” — nasa marriage cert naman ito, di ba? Pero ewan lang kung hanapan pa talaga ng birth cert. Dalhin nio na rin yong senior citizen ID niya.
hi po ask lng po . . manga nganak po kc ung asawa ko dis coming nov. ask ko po kung . . . mag kano ang mababayaran nmin sa hospital . . kc po. . may philhealth po kc ung tatay nya ask lng po tnx .
sabi po kc sa amin pag may philhealth ka , , ang bill lng po daw ng hospital ang libre? . . tama po bah?
Hi jervee, married ba kayo ng asawa mo? Kasi kung married kayo, hindi na siya puedeng dependent ng father niya. Kapag mahigit na siyang 21 years old, hindi na rin puede kahit hindi pa kayo married. Kung tuluy-tuloy ang pagbabayad sa Philhealth ang father, at ang asawa mo ay 21 years old or younger, pero hindi pa kayo married, puede siyang dependent. May limit ang babayaran ng Philhealth. Kung humigit doon ang gastos nio, babayaran nio yong sobra. Sa normal delivery, sasagutin ng Philhealth ang 6,500 kapag sa maternity clinic at Level 1 hospitals at 5,000 sa bigger hospitals. 1,500 para sa prenatal care kapag may resibo. Yong sobra sa bill, babayaran nio.
good day!nwalan po me ng work 2009.jan 2011 po ko ngstart mgbyad ulit ng monthly contribution until sept.2011.sept 14 2011 nanganak mrs k,mairreimburse po nmin yng sa maternity package at new born package.if kulang, pwede k p po byaran yng conribution last quarter ng 2010?thank you.
Hi Melvin, problem din ng iba rito ang problem mo. Kulang sa 9 months sila. Voluntary member ka ba? 9 months ang kelangan. Employed member ka, 3 months lang. 8 months lang ang sa iyo kc Sept nanganak ang wifey. Tawagan mo na lang ang Philhealth hotline 441-7444
pano po magregister sa philhealth tru online?
Hi Jhanz, wala pang online registration ang Philhealth. You need to go to a branch, bring your ID and/or birth certificate, and 300 pesos (for one quarter).
tanong ko lang po kung anong maganda kong gawin sa philhealth ko para mai active ulit.kasi po yung philihealth membership ko eh sponsor ng mayor namen dito noong 2009 pa.mula po noon eh di ko naman nagamit…ni di rin po aq naghulog mula noon.ano po kayang magandang gawin ko para magamit ko o maactive ulit ang membership ko?at kung may babayaran magkano po kaya?at anong mga dapat dalhin na requirements?paki send nalang po sa email ko ang ano mangkasagutan…salamat po
pwede ko po bang mairenew xa as a voluntary contribution nalang kasi po wala naman po akong work?
Yes, donaline, punta ka lang sa any Philhealth branch with your ID, fill out a membership form, and pay one quarter (300 pesos). If you have your birth certificate, dalhin mo na rin, baka lang hanapin. Don’t forget to pay when the next quarter is due.
hi!! ask ko lang jan-march2011 as employed member aq nag IP member aq since april-sep2011.. 9 mos prior pag maternity cases.. ask ko lang ung mga documents needed upon availment.. due nq dis oct 10.. enough nb ung ng RF-1 wd OR pra sa jan-march 2011 contribution ko at orig receipts pra sa april_sep ko?
Hi Jamila, get also your Member Data Record (MDR) from any Philhealth branch. But bring the RF-1 and the other receipts sa Philhealth and sa hospital baka lang gusto nilang icheck. If you like to claim your 1,500 prenatal benefit, bring ORs of your prenatal consultation, medicines, etc. (1,500 or more) — to be attached to Claim Forms (sa hospital). Puedeng mag-authorize ng someone to get the MDR for you.
tnx.. meron nrin akong mdr.. individual paying member na nakalagay.. indicated cs kc ko my schedule is on oct 10. may prenatal benefit pb ko maavail pag cs or fixed na sa 19k? naipon ko kc all receipts ng ultasound at mga laboratory ko..
Hi Jamila, sige dalhin mo lang sa hospital ang mga prenatal receipts, pero wala akong makitang specific rule about prenatal sa CS case. Yong prenatal benefit na andon sa rules, naka-attach sa normal delivery package. Yong newborn care, yon yong separate benefit, puede sa baby delivered via CS o normal delivery. If you have time, tawagan mo kaya ang Philhealth. Ako rin, if I have time.
Gud pm po, mam ask ko lang 5mos pa lang yung friend ko sa company and 5 months pa lang yung contribution nya with the said company unfortunately hindi pa sya na update ng company until now as their employee, ngayon nahospital yung father nya and kailangan na nya gamitin yung philhealth nya panu po ba ang gagawin nya and also ng company nya?
Hi Cecil, ibig mong sabihin nabawasan siya ng Philhealth premium for 5 months, pero di pa siya na-enroll? Ang employer dapat nirereport niya ang new employee sa Philhealth within 30 days. Nireremit din dapat ang premiums monthly — not later than the 10th day of the following month.
Kung naremit sana yong 5 monthly premiums, qualified sana for Philhealth yong father ng friend mo, kasi sa employee, 3 months lang ang kelangan for most illnesses. By the way, ang dependent father should be 60 years old or above.
Kung kasalanan ng company na hindi maka-claim sa Philhealth yong friend mo, dapat bayaran ng company yong Philhealth share sa total costs.
gud am po ask ko lang po kung pwede po ako mag pay ng contribution ng 3rd quarter now pa lang me magbayad sa month of october kasi now lang ako magkakapera, dati na ako member kaso diko na nababayaran yung previous since 2008, kung manganganak po ako ng june eh aabot po ba yun sa requirements, please po i want to know kung pwede pa po. thanks
Hi Josie, makiusap ka na bayaran mo 3rd and 4th quarters 2011 para makaipon ka ng 9 monthly payments before June 2012. Sabihin mo dati ka na ring member. Kasi kung di mabayaran ang Sep, 8 months lang ang maipon mo. Pakicheck din kung tama yong bilang ko
yung husband ko po may phic id at mdr kababayad lang po last week ng 4th quarter 2011 e hindi po pala yun papasok kung sakali ng 9 months? ako na lang po ang magbayad kasi meron ako phic id kung sakali pumayag sa phic sa akin na lang yung gagamitin okey lang po ba na dagdagan ko instead na 100 eh gawin ko 200 sa 3rd quarter? okey po ba sa oct 15 bayaran sana pumayag sila, or yung sa husband ko pa rin yung gamitin maki-usap na lang kami na mabayaran po yung 3rd qtr ng 2011 para maka-abot ng june 2012. thank you po mam sa kaliwanagan ng explanation. dati kasi kami member di na lang po nabayaran dahil nawawalan kami noon ng work, ako lang po may work as of now, pede po ba sa bayad center me magbayad kung sakali mam.
Oo, puede sa CIS Bayad Center at LBC Express (nakalista sa Philhealth website). Ang voluntary member 100 per month, kahit dagdagan ang per month walang effect kasi dates ang habol natin, ang importante may bayad yong 3rd quarter. Sana kung today na magbayad baka mas sure na makahabol, kahit 3rd quarter lang muna. Ang deadline ng quarterly payments ay yong last day of the quarter, pero merong grace period for those who have been members before. Sabi mo yong husband mo nakabayad na ng 4th quarter, katulad ng iniisip mo, subukan nga na siya na lang magbayad ng 3rd quarter 2011 para tipid, kasi dependent ka naman niya. Pag successful na mabayaran nia ang 3rd quarter, sia na lang ang magpatuloy na Philhealth member, mag-update na lang siya ng MDR nia para andon ka as dependent. Kung magpa-update siya ng MDR para maging dependent ka, include a letter to Philhealth galing sa iyo na hindi ka na active member at dependent ka na ng husband mo. Ayaw ng Philhealth ang member and at the same time dependent. Pero gawin ito kapag nakabayad na siya ng 3rd quarter 2011 para sure.
thanks po ako na lang po mag pay sa lbc dito sa west avenue dito lang po ako sa columbian bldg work dipa kasi me pay ng co mag-voluntary muna ako mam
mam one more question ano po yung phic advisory na sa ipp members po applicable yung extension ng pagbabayad ng 3rd quarter till october 31, 2011 due to bagyong peding and quiel, applicable po ba sa akin yun mam kasi taga bulacan po ako, eh region 1,2,3 at car po ang sakop so pede po ba ako mag bayad,ok lang po dito ako mag pay sa sm north edsa kasi mlapit ako sa pinagtrabahuhan ko, unfortunately dipa me binabayaran ng co kasi ka-start ko lang ng july 2011, kaya i voluntary payment ko muna till i pay nila ako sa january 2012 pa.thank you po mam…
hi po,good afernoon po ulit. tanong ko lang po if mag-voluntary member po yung mother ko para maging dependent nya po yung lola ko anu po ba yung dapat nyang gawin?
mam bakit po ganun nagtry me mag-pay sa lbc dito sa quadrangle branch for 3rd quarter eh di po ina-accept yung payment dapat po ba sa philhealth branch ng bulacan me mag-pay? kahit may accredited collecting agent malapit sa pinapasukan ko, ang sabi yun lang daw pong updated kasi wala sa system nila, baka pag i try ko ulit dina tanggapin yung payment ko sayang po yung i-pay namin,
Hi Josie, oo nga pala, parang sa Meralco o Pag-ibig housing amortization din, pag late, dapat sa main na. Baka malapit din diyan sa iyo yong Philhealth Quezon Ave branch. Malapit siya sa Pegasus.
Hi Cecil, oo puede, I assume 60 or above na yong lola mo. Your mother brings her birth certificate at senior ID ng lola mo. Nabasa ko sa Philhealth website, puede nang mag-enroll sa SM, Bayad Center, etc. Pero 360 pesos kasi puede ring discount card itong Philhealth card na ito. Sa Philhealth branch, 300 pesos for one quarter (regular Philhealth ID).
good afternoon po ulit, mam may nakapagsabi po kasi sa akin na pwede na po mag member mismo yung senior citizen. totoo po ba yun?
Hi Josie, oo puede mo pang bayaran yong 3rd quarter until Oct 31 sa SM North Edsa. kasama naman ang NCR sa advisory. At oo tama yon, voluntary ka muna. good decision. blessing in disguise yong bagyo sa iyo ah.
Hi Cecil, siguro ang narinig mo yong mga senior citizens na sponsored ng barangay o politician o organization. Free ito.
Oo puede rin sila ang mag-member mismo, lalo na kung meron pa silang income, pero kung puede naman silang dependent ng anak, bakit hindi na lang ganon? except kung may valid reason
maraming salamat po.
Cecil, another pa pala, yong mga senior citizens (at least 60) na Philhealth members dati noong younger sila, at meron silang 10 years or 120 months of contributions, automatic pala sila na Philhealth Lifetime members (wala nang bayad, free forever na sila, puede rin nilang dependent ang spouses nila)
hi po ask ko lang po pano po sakay ko papaunta po sa philhealth buendia from pasig po..sakay po ba ako ng mrt going buendia ano po ba mas ok na way thanks po
Hi Gina, puede yang iniisip mo na way. Baba ka ng MRT Buendia, tapos lakad ka sa mga MRT-LRT Taft jeep malapit sa Shell. Sabihin mo ibaba ka sa Philhealth. Ito ay bago Mapua Buendia.
Hi gud mrning po.pano ko po malalaman ang philhealth number ko? employee po ako ng metrobank.thank you..
Hi Nanet, kung matagal ka na with Metrobank, puede thru your HR. Call your HR and ask if they have your Philhealth number. If new Philhealth member, you can either go to any Philhealth branch, or wait for your HR to request Philhealth numbers/IDs for their employees.
hi good evening po,..balak ko po kcng mgapply ng philhealth dto s imus,..anu po b ang mga requirments n kakailnganin,..self employed po ako,wala rin po akong asawa at anak,..at ung father ko nman ay hindi pa 60,..cnu p b ang pwede kong ilagay bilang dependent ko,..tnx u po,.pls reply,.plan ko n po kc pumunta tomorrow or the nxt day,..tsaka 21 yrs old plang po ako,..pwede n po b ako makuha ng philhealth….god bless po
Hi Irene, older than 21 years puede na sa Philhealth. Bring your birth certificate para alam nila na eligible ka na, plus your ID. Parang wala ka pang puedeng dependent. Merong list dito ng puedeng dependents: http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/09/philhealth-dependents/
so pwede n po pla aqng mgapply s philhealth kc 21 n po ako,.tsaka panu po un ok lng po b n wala nlng akong ilalagay n dependent kc wala nmang qualifide n pwedeng dependent s family ko,…tnx u po s pagreply
pno kung walang ids?pdi po bang birth certificate or marriage certificate lang?
Oo, Irene, okay lang kahit walang dependent.
Hi Charmel, oo puedeng birth or marriage cert, kung wala ka talagang ID. Nakalagay sa form, puede, pero minsan hinahanap ng Philhealth ang ID.I-explain mo nalang bakit wala kang ID. Dalhin mo rin barangay clearance kung meron ka.
Good day! I’m a member of philhealth na pero di nahulugan ng employer ko. Now I’m 7months preggy and will get married to an active philhealth member. Can i use the maternity benefits as the dependent of my husband to be?
Hi Anne, yes, you can be your fiance’s dependent as long as you get married before your due date, so that your man can bring your marriage certificate to Philhealth and update his MDR and include you as dependent. Pero magtanong ka rin sa OWP – Facebook or others para lang sure.
If you were an active Philhealth member before, have your husband submit also a letter from you telling Philhealth you’re no longer active and ask them to register you as dependent of your husband.
gud pm po mam’ tnong q lng po kung nid tlga merried certi nmen mg asawa kc pinpirmhn o pumirma po ng form s work po ng husband q nilgy nia po ko at yung 1 daugther nmen birth certificate lng po kinuha pero marriage di npo hinnp ok lng po b yun? ok lng po b mam khit di npo ko kumuha ng philhealth nagbblk po kc sna q pra kung skli pg nag preggy ulet me ay di npo me mmomoblema s byrin s hospital.ty po

Hi Jane, sana buo ang pagsulat mo para madali kong intindihin. Iniisip ko pa kung ano ang ibig mong sabihin. Nahirapan pa ako. Dapat married kayo ng husband mo para legal na dependent ka. Nakalagay yan sa rules ng Philhealth. Puedeng makalusot yan, puede ring hindi. Merong hospital na bukod sa MDR hihingan pa kayo ng marriage certificate. Or puede ring pag-submit ng form ng office nio sa Philhealth, ang isusulat lang ng Philhealth na dependent ay yong anak ninyo kasi siya yong may document.

good evening,i know it’s too late, but can i politely ask something? im a self-pay member po ako ng philhealth, quarterly ako nagbabayad… unfortunately may 6mos akong di nahulugan, nag try po ako i-fill yun pero hindi daw po pwede, ung payment ko daw po ay mapupunta sa mga susunod na 6mos… magagamit ko pa din po ba ung maternity benefit ko kahit first 6mos na walang palya tapos po 6 mos na palya, tapos po 6 mos na advance payment? thanks po…
i want to know kung ano po ba ang pdeng gawin for my dad na almost 20 yrs nagtrabaho sa gobyerno and that entire years ay nahulugan nman nya ung philhealth nya..pero nag early retire sya noong 2008 for health reason, so from 2009-2011 this year ay di na nya nahuhulugan ung philhealth nya..he is only 56 now at kailangan sna nmin ung philhealth nya for his hospitalization paano kya ggwin nmin?since na mentioned na d2 na di na pdeng bayaran ung mga missed contributions could we still maximize my dad’s philhealth benefits or balewala na yung 20 yrs nyang contributions?salamat ng marami sa mga sasagot.
hello po ask ko lang po kung pwede mgamit ng parents ko yung philhealth ko their already senior citizen ang problema ang nkalagay po sa bngay skng paper “no declared dependents” kahit po ba ganun magagamit nla yun? or kailangang nsa dependents sila? thanks for the reply po.
Hi Susie, oo magagamit nila kahit hindi nakalagay sa MDR mo, sabi sa Philhealth website. Pero hahanapan ka ng birth certificate mo at senior citizen’s ID nila (proof na 60 years old and above na sila). Kung meron kang time, punta ka sa Philhealth with your birth cert and your parents’ senior citizen IDs para mailagay sila as your dependents sa Philhealth record mo.
Hi Enteng, so sad about your dad’s case. Pero hindi pa kasi siya 60 years old, so hindi pa siya puede sa Lifetime membership. Qualified siya sa number of monthly contributions, pero disqualified siya sa age. Ito, andito sa No. 2 http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/members/lifetime/faqs/membership.htm#m2 Ang suggestion ko, i-member nio na siya this quarter, puede pa, kasi Nov pa lang. You can pay 4th quarter – Oct to Dec – (300 pesos) para by January, eligible na siya (3 months naman ang required sa regular illnesses; 9 months — sa mga maternity plus certain surgeries) Download nio itong Philhealth Member Registration Form (PMRF), https://sites.google.com/site/philippinesgovph/Philhealth?pli=1 print and fill it out, have your dad sign it, and then submit to Philhealth with his ID and/or birth certificate.
Hi Jen, sa self-pay (Individually Paying, according to Philhealth), 9 months ang required for maternity, 3 months sa regular illnesses. Ang gawin mo, count 12 months before month of delivery. Example, your due date is Nov 2011. Ang 12-month prior period is from to Nov 2010 to Oct 2011. Meron ka bang 9 months na nabayaran within sa period na yan? Kapag kulang, sad to say, hindi ka pa eligible. Hindi considered ang mga payments during month and after months of delivery. Ask ka rin sa iba para sure.
gud am..ask ko lang po kz last year nagbayad ako ng 900 nong nagexit ako from uae..it was last june 2010as OFW.Now tanong ko lang po kong magagamit ko ba sya ngaun sa pregnancy ko(expected date ko ng dilevery sa April 2011)..pwede ko pa ba syang bayaran dis year even though cancel na ung visa ko as OFW..And ano po ba ang requirement if ever maavail ko pa?
At saan po ang malapit na branch nyo d2 sa caloocan?
Hi Ledy, you mean April 2012? Yong binayaran mo pag-exit mo na 900 is valid from June 2010 to May 2011, so nakalipas na. Hindi na puedeng gamitin. Kung makabayad ka pa sana uli ng 900 as an OFW, puede ka maka-avail. Pag voluntary membership ang makuha mo, 9 prior monthly payments ang kelangan. Ang puede mong bayaran is Oct to March 2012 — six months lang, kulang. Pero magtanong ka rin sa OWP-Philhealth sa Facebook.
yha..sorry i mean 2012,saan ko ba pwedeng bayaran as late payment?do i need to pay again for the whole year para maavail ko ?
saan ba ang pinakamalapit u na office branch d2 sa caloocan or quezon city?
Ledy, dito: http://www.workingpinoy.com/2010/11/philhealth-branches-in-north-metro-central-metro-and-bulacan/
Ledy, makabayad ka as OFW kapag meron kang proof of being an active OFW, such as work contract, OEC, working visa, iqama, etc.
Sir NORS thanks po sa reply,so i will just pay the 4th quarter and by january pde na nyang magamit ung philhealth nya? sorry for having a lot of questions kc i haven’t been using philhealth. may sakit po kc syang DIABETES so dami pong check ups and test na kelangan. ano po kayang covered ng philhealth nya for his case?A LOT OF THANKS..
Hi Enteng, oo, sana ma-member nio na ngayon yong 4th quarter. Earlier, the better, kasi ang rule is 3 monthly payments within the prior six-month period. I-mention nio na matagal na siyang Philheath member para mabayaran nio pa yong Oct (buong 4th Q). Pag andon kayo sa Philhealth, ask nio na rin kung puede nang gamitin sa Jan. Ang diabetes, a certain portion of the actual fees ang benefits, including category of hospital and illness.
hello po….nanay ko po kc ofw, ng end po ata byaran nia ng philhealth nung june or july, pwede pa po bang ituloy na mabbyaran po nia ung from june to december….?sabi po kc sa philhealth caloocan kelangan dw copy of pasport at copy of contract para makapagbyad kami sa contribution ng nanay ko as ofw…panu po un e wla p ung copy na hinihingi nla…
Hi Lez, oo kelangan ng proof na OFW ang mother mo, kasi mas mura ang sa OFW at medyo mas may advantage ang rules sa kanila, kaya hindi basta-basta tumatanggap ng OFW payment ang Pag-ibig. Puede namang isend ng mother nio ang copy ng contract niya or work visa niya or OFW ID niya via email tapos iprint nio. Kelangan nio ba ang June to Oct na payment? Kausapin nio na lang ang Philhealth. Kung hindi naman, mas okay na rin na magbayad from October 2011 to September 2012 or November 2011 to October 2012, mas humaba pa ang validity dates.
gud day!!!! mam ask ko lang pag pumunta po ba ako ng philhealth sa may sta lucia ma issuehan po nila ako ng new id ng philhealth kasi dati meron npo ako nag change status lang po ako office ko na po ang naglakad but im not sure kung apelyido na ng asawa ko ang nakalagay…. tenk you and god bless..
Hi Lenie, palagay ko, oo, basta meron silang stock na cards. Mag-fill-up ka muna ng form para ma-update yong status mo at surname mo. Meron silang new ID ngayon na may kasamang discount privileges — yong I-Philhealthy card — makukuha sa certain branches ng SM at Bayad Center for 50 pesos — andon din yong Philhealth number. Pero hindi ko pa na-try ito, nabasa ko lang sa circular nila.
possible po bang makakuha ng philhealth kahit walang tin? pede po bang sss lang?
Hi Love, ang alam ko puede, huwag mo na lang sulatan yong space for TIN, o lagyan mo ng NA. Handa ka lang ng sagot kung bakit wala kang TIN. Parang walang SSS# sa form.
thanks po Ms. Nors, ahm anu po kaya pede ko isagot? di pa po kasi ako bigyan ng BIR ng TIn kasi kelangan daw po magupdate ng employer namin sa bir.
Love: Puede na yong — kasi po kinukuha pa ng employer namin ang TIN namin . Pero most likely hindi na tanungin.
thanks po ^_^
gud day!ask q lang po,since 2006 up to 2009 member aq ng philhealth and i was an ofw b4.last payment q 2009,til now d pa aq nagbayad,magagamit q ba ung philhealth q?manganganak kc aq nxt yr april.july 2009 nag asawa aq isang ofw rin,member sya since 2009 pero binata pa sya dat tym 2009,d nmin alam wen ang valedated date nun kc nawala ung resibo.we r now living here in dubai,by feb uuwi aq ng pinas,pwd q ba gamitin ung sa asawa q?paano?magagamit q p rin ba ung sa akin?paano?tnx a lot po..hoping ur immediate response…God bless!
Hi Mariel, hindi nio magagamit ang mga 2009 payments. dapat updated, pero yan ang maganda sa OFW kasi validity dates ang umaandar sa inyo, hindi prior payments. Kung hindi sure ng husband mo kung updated ang Philhealth niya, i-update mo na lang Philhealth mo diyan. Look for Philhealth payment centers diyan, usually sa mga banks na merong remittance, or sa Philippine consulate, baka meron. Keep the receipt in a secure place. Puede ring magpabayad kayo sa Pinas, pero you need to send proof of OFW papers, authorization and ID. Yong validity dates ng babayaran nio this month is Dec 2011 to Dec 2012. Covered na ang April 2012 na panganganak. Pero para sure na sure, ask rin kayo ng iba kahit nakabayad na kayo ng Dec 2011 to Dec 2012.
hi!tnx a lot sa advise mo,pero walang nangyari sa lakad nmin ng asawa q kahapon sa consulate,kc ang dubai embassy lang ata ang walang philhealth office,pag ibig lang ang mayrun sila..ang susungit pa ng mga staff,d ka makapagtanong ng maayos..sabi ng asawa q dis yr lang ang hindi nya nbayaran,hindi pa kc nya aq beneficiary kc bago lang kaming kasal,saan nmin e susubmit ung marriage contract and other documents nmin to prove na asawa nga nya aq para madagdag aq sa beneficiary nya?pwd ba ipakita nmin sa remittance na nag aacept ng philhealt payments ang mga documents n un?d kc nya matandaan ano ung philhealth number nya..paano ma access ung number nya?pasincya na po f dami kung tanong..i had bad experienced here in dubai about dis government agency,kc ang alam q pag government agency nasa consulate lahat yan e,para dun mo ma proccess lahat ng kailangan mo while u are in abroad…give me more advice pls….!tnx a lot Nors,advance merry christmas and happy new year!….
Hi Mariel, dapat merong Philhealth service ang lahat ng consulates — mga ito na nga lang ang tulong nila…haaaay. Sa HK kasi meron. Sabi sa Philhealth website, look for I-Remit — meron ba diyan? Or remittance centers ng PNB, DBP at Ventaja International Corp. Hindi ko lang alam kung naka-online ang mga centers diyan sa Philhealth para makuha ang Philhealth number nio. Yong pagiging dependent mo, puede mo na gawin dito later on kung hindi puede ang updating diyan. Basta merong marriage certificate. Meron pa ngang tanong doon sa FAQ ng Philhealth na kung hindi pa updated at kelangan na, dalhin lang ang marriage certificate at Philhealth payment receipts sa hospital.
“If MDR is not available, submit official receipt of applicable premium payment
If qualified dependent is not listed in the MDR – submit applicable proof of dependency”
Sana kung merong puedeng magbayad dito sa Phil in your behalf. Puedeng i-email nio authorization to pay Philhealth at proof of OFW, idownload nila dito and then print. Bring nila ID nila. Ito proofs of being OFW, at least one.
http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/11/philhealth-membership-for-ofws-documents-required/

ask ko lng po if makakaavail po b k ng philhealth sa pangannganak k s feb 2012, isa po ako ofw umuwi po ako last nov 2011 pra d2 manganak s bansa ntin, kya lang po expired n po last august 2011 yung philhealth ko yung last n payment ko s poea pra oec ko.. pag n renew ko po ba ngayon yung philhealth ko magagamit ko po i to s panganganak ko.. pno po ang aking gagawin.. magkano po b ang babayaran ko.
Hi Myla, OFW ka pa ba? Meron ka bang isa sa list na ito?
http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/11/philhealth-membership-for-ofws-documents-required/
Kung meron kang OFW document, marerenew mo ang membership mo as OFW at maco-cover ang delivery mo sa Feb 2012, kasi babayaran mo ang Dec 2011 to Dec 2012 (900 pesos for 12 months, cheaper for OFWs), at ang validity dates mo ay Dec 2011 to 2012, meaning covered ka sa mga dates na yan. Sa OFW, validity dates ang basehan. Iba kesa voluntary.
Ang voluntary member, required na meron silang 9 months of payments within the 12-month period bago month of hospitalization.
Kung hindi ka na OFW, magbayad ka agad-agad, bago lumipas ang business days ng Dec2011, as voluntary. Bayaran mo 2 quarters — Oct to Dec 2011 at Jan 2012 to March 2012 (6 months = 600 pesos) Ang 12-month period mo bago due date Feb 2012 is from Feb2011 to Jan2012. Meron kang 9 months na bayad diyan, maco-cover ka. I-check mo rin kung tama yong counting ko. Best regards. P.S. Keep your Philhealth receipts as OFW kasi kasama sa bilang, kung halimbawa voluntary ka.
hi po..ask lng po ako.pwede po ba ako mag pa member sa philhealth kahit dependent ako ng asawa ko? anu anu po ba ung mga requirements nila para mag pa member ka? waiting for your respones..thanks and Godbless po.
Hi Anne, oo, puede kang mag-member, pero once na member ka na, technically hindi ka na dependent. Pag gagamit ka na ng Philhealth, isa lang ang puede mong gamitin, either as a member or as dependent. You need to show an ID and/or your birth certificate. Ito yong membership form https://sites.google.com/site/informationphilippines/philhealth/member-registration-form
Thanks po sa info..Happy New Year and God bless :]
gud day po..kasi po dalawa po kmi ng husband k ngpamember sa philhealth tapos ngbayad po kmi 1st quarter. tpos nung ngbayad ako for 2nd qrtr sabi po skin ung sa husband k nlng po ung bayaran k wag na daw ung sakin. ask lng po ako panu po kng namatay ung husband k pnu po macontinue ung philhealth nmin?
Hi Jade, mabait yong nag-advice sa iyo kasi kinonsider niya gastos nio sa premiums. Yong iba, tanggap lang ng tanggap. Pag nawala ang husband mo, mag-member ka agad, or ituloy mo agad yong membership mo. Merong continuity naman ang Philhealth, from being dependent to being a member. Halimbawa, kelangan ng 9 or 3 prior monthly payments para maka-benefit, ibibilang yong premiums while dependent and then premiums as member, basta keep the receipts, and don’t fail to pay continuously. By the way, magbayad ka na ng 2 years (1,200 per year) para makamura, kasi kung tutuloy yong increase, 2,400 na per year, starting July 2012 (date may change).
oo nga po buti nlng may mbait akong naka usap kc sayang daw ang pera pag dalawa babayaran nmin..ung iba jan sa philhealth wlng pkialam at d pa approachable.. ok lng po ba ihinto k ung philhealth k? 3 months plang namn nabayaran k. pwede k po ba siyang gamitin in case mgtrabaho ako? maraming salamat po!:D
good pm po, ask ko po sana kung saan pwede mag pamember sa philhealth? taga caloocan po ako, malapit sa novaliches. thankyou
Oo, Jade, yang current number mo, yan ang gagamitin if you go back to work, kasi sa employed, mandatory ang employees to contribute to Philhealth. Puede mong ihinto kasi dependent ka naman ng husband mo, at pede mo ring ituloy kung employed ka na uli. On the other hand, kung meron kang parents 60 and above, at gusto mo silang gawing dependents kasi wala silang Philhealth, at hindi sila dependent ng another sibling, you can continue being a voluntary member.
Hi Maria Luisa, puede sa branch sa Quezon Avenue o sa Avenida 10th-11th, kung saan ang mas convenient sa iyo. Bring your ID. Kung SM Mall-goer ka, i-check mo kung meron nang iPhilhealth diyan — puedeng mag-enroll, pero merong kasamang discount card (50 pesos), plus 14PHP each of first 2 dependents.
thank you Nors.^_^
hello po ask ko lang po kung ano ung malapit na branch ng philhealth dito sa tandang sora quezon city?
Hi Sittie, yong along Quezon Ave. From Commonwealth/Tandang Sora, sakay ka papuntang Quiapo, baba ka sa may tawiran tapat ng Pegasus. Malapit diyan.

Hi Dennis, OFW ka or Employed member? Kung employed ka, you need to send Philhealth Claim form 1 signed by you and your employer and your MDR (from Philhealth). Most employers also give a separate certification of Philhealth contributions. If OFW ka, at andito ka pa sa Manila, send mo sa kanya ang kopya ng Philhealth payment receipt, plus MDR from Philhealth, at yong signed claim form. If your MDR is not yet updated, fill out another membership form (check mo For Updating) to include her as your dependent. Kung meron kang Philhealth ID, sige, send mo rin. Siya magdala rin siya ng ID sa hospital, plus marriage certificate (baka lang hanapin), including her prenatal receipts (ORs), at least 1,500 (prenatal benefit), para maisama sa claim submission ng hospital.
sir tanong ko lng po kung example may work ako ngaun atactive ung contribution ko sa philhealth tpos nag apply pa ako sa isang company may philhealth din, hindi po ba bawal un khit dalawa ung contribution ko? kasi may nkapag sabi po skin na pwde daw po makasuhan pag ganun! salamat!
Hi Manuel, merong Philhealth circular about this issue in 2009. Walang kaso na 2 contributions kung 2 ang employers mo, kasi required ang mga employers to pay Philhealth premiums, regardless kung meron nang Philhealth ang isang employee sa ibang company. Sa kasong ganito raw, there are 2 options for an employee with 2 or more employers paying Philhealth: 1)ire-refund yong lahat na nadoble at age 60, pero yong employee share lang;yong employer share remains with Philhealth 2) pag mag-resign ang employee at maging Individually Paying, ipambabayad niya yong overpayment sa contributions niya as Individually Paying. Ang bawal, yong 2 or more Philhealth numbers for one member.
Gud pm! san po ba makakakuha ng MDR taga Cavite po kasi ako san po malapit sa Cavite makakakuha hinihingan po kasi ako kung sino sino yung dependents ko,thanks
Hi Shie, here are Philhealth branches in Cavite or near Cavite
meron po sana akong itatanong. Member po ako dati ng Philhealth 3 years ago pero di na ako nagbayad ulit. May record pa rin ba ako sa Phihealth? Gusto ko po sanang irenew ulit ung membership ko. Paano po pala mag apply ng Philhealt dito sa Ontario Canada. Hoping for ur reply.
Sincerely yours,
Anna
Hi Anna, yes, puede mong ituloy ang Philhealth membership mo as Individually Paying member. Merong mga Philhealth-accredited I-Remit branches dito where you can pay your Philhealth premiums. Keep your receipts. Yan ang hinahanap sa hospital kapag wala pang MDR. I-download mo itong Philhealth membership form na ito, then print, then fill it up, sign and dalhin mo sa I-Remit at tanungin mo if they accept membership forms and deliver to Philhealth together with your payment. About records, according to Philhealth, kahit yong mga Medicare pa noon ay meron silang records.
good morning po, ask q lng paano mgverify ng contribution s philhealth, last 2007-2009 ay OFW aq, then employed aq ng july 2009 pro late n aq nakaltasan ng employer q last march 2010 lng…paano po b maverify un kung nkrating b ung contribution kc d2 sa service center d2 sta lucia hndi raw pwede mgverify…for registration lng dw cla…pls..help me po para panatag ang lood ko n nkrating ung hulog ko in the future kc klangan ko rin ng assistance ng philhealth..thank you. I will wait for your response…
Hi Madelen, puzzled ako na hindi puedeng magverify sa Sta Lucia branch,eh service center nga siya. In many comments here last year, hanga ang marami sa tulong ng Sta Lucia. Bakit ngayon hindi na? Ibig sabihin hindi sila nagbibigay ng MDR? Punta ka na lang sa ibang branch or call 441-7442
hi good evening po. ask ko lang po if meron po ba kayo branch somewhere po sa binan laguna? or alabang. thankyou. basta malapit po dun banda.
Hi Keizi, sa bandang Alabang, nearest yong Philhealth sa bandang SM Southmall. From Alabang, sakay ka ng papuntang Zapote. Baba ka paglagpas lang ng Southmall. Yong mga banda ng BDO Landbank, andiyan ang Philhealth. Hindi ka tatawid. Sa Calamba Laguna: 3/F Paseo Uno de Calamba, Brgy. Paciano Rizal, Calamba City
