Lower PhilHealth contributions sought
The Philippine Star|November 05, 2024
Increased benefit packages and lower contribution rates for Philippine Health Insurance Corp. (PhilHealth) members are being sought by Agri party-list Rep. Wilbert Lee.
By JOSE RODEL CLAPANO

Amendments to Republic Act 11223 or the Universal Health Care Act, which would institutionalize the comprehensive increase in PhilHealth benefits and reduced member contributions, must be immediately passed, Lee said yesterday.

In filing House Bill 10995, Lee proposed lower premium contributions, from five percent to four percent in 2024 and from five percent to 4.25 percent in 2025.

Lee proposed that the Health Technology Assessment Council review and assess the amounts of each PhilHealth benefit package and ensure that these are updated.
