Goverment denied budget for philhealth

MANILA, Philippines — State medical insurer PhilHealth will receive no government subsidy in the proposed 2025 national budget, the bicameral conference committee announced on Wednesday, December 11.
Sen. Grace Poe, the national budget’s sponsor in the Senate, explained that PhilHealth must first exhaust its reserve funds.
In an ambush interview at the Manila Hotel, Poe acknowledged that PhilHealth’s budget has been a recurring issue of contention.
“For now, Philhealth will not be given a budget, because they must first use their reserve funds,” Poe said in Filipino.
Poe argued that PhilHealth still has sufficient funds for its operational costs. The allocation, however, initially intended for the agency was redirected to other government agencies in greater need.
She estimated that PhilHealth has around P600 billion in reserve funds. She said Philhealth has had a history of inefficiently utilizing government subsidy.
Several senators have already made public their displeasure at Philhealth’s excessive idle funds, including Senate President Francis Escudero.

Tapos ung magiging budget ipapasa sa AKAP. másáráp maging mahirap sa pilipinas. kayakay kalang meron ka ng pera. Unfair sa mga taong nagtratrabaho at nagcocontribute sa philhealth tapos pagnangailangan e ang liit lang ng converage. What happening to the Philippines.

I disagree, meron taung Sin Tax Law kung saan ung tax na pinapataw sa *******, cigarate, etc e meron dapat parte ung philhealth dun. So di pwede na walang pundo na ibibigay sa philhealth. Second, Insurance ung philhealth so tapat meron silang nakareserve na fund. Third, All pilipino covered ng philhealth, so kung di mabibigyan e ung mga nagcocontribute ung papasan? Kung meron excess fund ung philhealth dapat palawakin nalang sana ung cover. Ung sinabi ng mga senador na parusa sa philhealth e dapat giniwa nalang e pinalitan ung namumuno sa philhealth. parang ung naparusahan is ung taon bayan.

so ok lang sayo na gamitin ang appropriation na yan para mas dumami ang unprogrammed funds? maganda naman ang intention na dapat subsidized ang philhealth at di lang umaasa sa contributions, pero hindi yan nangyayari sa actual, pinapa lobo lang lalo ang unprogrammed funds by declaring the subsidy as excess fund

Ito ung mismo na nasa law
"After deducting the allocations under Republic Act Nos. 7171 and 8240, eighty percent (80%) of the remaining balance of the incremental revenue derived from this Act shall be allocated for the universal health care under the National Health Insurance Program, the attainment of the millennium development goals and health awareness programs; and twenty percent (20%) shall be allocated nationwide, based on political and district subdivisions, for medical assistance and health enhancement facilities program, the annual requirements of which shall be determined by the Department of Health (DOH)."
