Philhealth Maternity Benefit Requirements for Voluntary Members or Individually Paying Members and their Dependents
Submit the following documents to the hospital upon admission, or before your bill is computed.
Philhealth coverage should be deducted from your bill. You can no longer file for refund directly with Philhealth.
1. Clear copy of your Member Data Record (MDR) — Get this from Philhealth
If you are a dependent of your husband, and your name is not yet written as dependent in your husband’s MDR, your husband should update his MDR at any Philhealth branch. He brings his ID and your marriage certificate.
2. Philhealth Claim Form 1 — You can also get this form from Philhealth or from the hospital or clinic. Fill this up and sign. This is how the form look likes: https://sites.google.com/site/informationphilippines/philhealth/philhealth-claim-form-1
Submit 2 claim forms: one for you and one for your baby
3. Clear copy of Official Receipt of Philhealth contribution payment
Your receipt should show payment of at least 3 months within the last 6 months before admission. Month of admission is included in the 6-month counting.
Example 1: Your admission is June 2016. You should have paid for April May and June 2016, or any 3 months of these 6 months: January, February, March, April, May and June 2016.
Example 2: Your admission is October 2016. You should have paid for July August September 2016, or any 3 months of these 6 months: May, June, July, August, September, October 2016.
Example 3: Your admission is November 2016. You should have paid for July August September 2016, or any 3 months of these 6 months: June, July, August, September, October, November 2016.
5. Official receipts of Prenatal Care Payments
(Only for normal delivery)
You attach these ORs to your Philhealth papers to claim the prenatal care coverage worth 1,500 pesos. This benefit will be sent to you by Philhealth via postal mail. Submit at least 1,500 pesos worth of receipts. This is offered only for normal deliveries. Not offered for CS deliveries.
What prenatal care receipts are valid? There’s a list here: http://www.healthphilippines.net/2011/11/philhealth-maternity-benefit-prenatal-care/
6. Bring your Philhealth card or ID or any other ID, in case it is required to confirm your identity.
3. How much is Philhealth maternity benefit?
Normal Delivery:
— 6,500 pesos if maternity or lying-in clinic
(2,600 pesos for doctor and 3,900 pesos for clinic)
— 5,000 pesos if hospital
(2,000 pesos for doctor and 3,000 pesos for hospital)
The prenatal care benefit of 1,500 pesos is refunded by Philhealth only if you attach Official Receipts of Prenatal Care Payments.
Indicated Cesarean Section o CS:
— 19,000 pesos — 7,600 pesos for doctor and 11,400 for hospital
(CS should be done in a hospital)
Remember:
1. The doctor and the hospital or lying-in or maternity clinic should both be Philhealth-accredited.

Hi arlene, sorry you can no longer pay for Jan to March because it’s now April. What you can pay is for Apr to Aug, and these months total only 5 months, not enough to reach the 9-month requirement. You can ask Philhealth if they are again offering the Individual Policy Contract — under this, you can qualify.
hi… sa june 2013 po due ko… employed po aq kaso nung feb kinailangn ko na magleave due sa prgnancy maselan. yung sss ko nkita ko na po n may hulog hanggang feb gnun din po kaya sa philhealth makakaavail ba ko?
im due on june… makakahabol pa ba ako.sa pagbabayad ng apr to june ngayon?? im employed pero nakaleave ako… nakita ko ung sa sss nabayaran hangang feb possible kaya na nabayaran ung philhealth ko?? till march…
Hi jei, yes, you need to pay April to May (pede na ring Apr to June) because you a have a long leave. Yes, you can still pay April to May or June. Even if your employer did not pay your Feb and Mar (because you were not on the payroll during these months), you can still avail because you will be able to pay 9 of the 12 months BEFORE your month of delivery.
Good day po , ask ko lang po kung maggamit ko na po ba ang philhealth ko sa panganganak ko ngayong oct 2018 , kakagawa lang po ngayong july ng philhealth ko at yung nahulugan ko palang ay month ng July hanggang September , pwede na po ba magamit yun, Kung hnd pa po , paano po ba ggawin para magamit po magkano po ba dapat kong hulugan para magamit ko sya sa oct. ,Magbbago na daw po kse ng rule 9/12 months na daw po.Sana po matulungan nyo ko . salamat po.
Hi Alyssa, yes 9 months na ang required starting Oct. Pay for Oct to June 2019. Pero bago ka magbayad, basahin mo muna itong post na ginawa for your case: Women about to give birth

Hi Maricel, does the certification from your previous employer have amounts, dates paid and OR numbers? If not, go back and ask for another certification that have amounts paid, dates paid and OR numbers. Then get your MDR from Philhealth. You will be eligible because you have paid at least 9 of the 12 months BEFORE May 2013 (9 months within May 2012 to Apr 2013.
hi po tnong ko lang…kung halimbawa mgbyad ako itong mayo ng kabuuang 12month makakaavil po ba ako kung manganganak asawa ko sa june nitong buwan..at kung pde po mgkano bbyaran… maraming salamat po
Hi edmundo, if you pay as Individual Payor, you’re already late, you can no longer pay for past quarters. But if you pay as OFW, your wife can avail — it’s good I noticed that your IP address is in USA. You should pay as OFW there if you can find a remittance firm that accepts Philhealth premium payments. If not, your wife/family can pay here in your behalf as OFW with proof of you working overseas, such as copy of your work visa or job contract or company ID or at least 2 recent remittance receipts. Here’s additional info: Documents for Philhealth Membership as OFWs Payment could still be 1200 per year for OFWs, or could already be 150 x 12 = 1800 pesos, same as Individual Payors.
For OFWs, the hospitalization date should be within the validity dates in the premium receipt.
tatanong ko lang po nag resign po kc ako sa trabaho gusto ko pa sana ituloy ung pagbabayad ng philhealth ko pano po ba ang proseso nito. salamat po.
Hi Marco, do you know your Philhealth no.? You can pay at Bayad Center or SM Business Center. Ask for the payment slip and fill it up, then pay at the counter. Keep your receipt. You can also pay at the nearest Philhealth branch with your ID; fill up the member registration data form so you can update your personal data.
do i need to get a certificate of contribution from my previous employer. kc nung galing ako sa philhealth sabi sa akin kuha daw muna ako ng certification and gave me a form PMRF i need to fill up daw. hindi naman ako bagong member. thanks.
Hi marco, did you go there to get your MDR? I’m puzzled because they should give you your MDR after you show your ID. You only fill-up again the PMRF if you need to update or change some data. It’s the hospital that requires certification from your employer or premium receipts because hospitals want to make sure you are updated.
mgagamit ko pa po b yung more than 1 year kung hinulog sa philhealth,kung ngstop ako nghulog nung feb 2012,tpos nabuntis po ako nung october 2012 manganganak po ako ngayong 1st wek ng july 2013 gagamitin ko po sana s lying inn..tnx po
Hi lani, sorry, hindi. Ang requirement ay payment ng at least 9 months sa loob ng July 2012 to June 2013 (12 months bago manganak). Ang puede mo lang bayaran ngayon ay Apr to June 2013, so 3 months lang, not enough.
Hi po… i just want to ask po certain questions regarding on my philhealth benefit. I resigned from my previous job last jan 21, 2013 po kasi buntis po ako. As of now I’m 30 weeks pregnant. My expected due date is on the last week of June 2013. I got married last Feb 2013.here are my questions:
1. i wanted to pay for my Jan2013-March2013 premium voluntarily but I was unaware of the deadline for paying of premiums for voluntary members. Can I still pay for the 1st quarter of 2013? Is there a penalty for not paying it on time?
2. I have not yet updated my status from single to married and from employed to voluntary member. Where can I update my membership?
3. My husband is employed until now. Can we avail of his philhealth benefits me as his beneficiary? If so, can we avail of our philhealth benefits simultaneously when I give birth on june 2013?
4. Is there a website where we can check our philhealth contributions?
Please advise me on what I should do. thanks po.
Hi myh, 1) Sorry you can no longer pay for the 1st quarter. Payment deadline for any quarter is the last day of the quarter. 2) You go to any Philhealth branch with your ID and marriage certificate (orig and xerox) and fill up the member registration form. 3) If you have not paid 9 of the past 12 months BEFORE June 2013, you should use your husband’s Philhealth. Ask him to update his Philhealth record with his ID, marriage cert. and a letter from you asking Philhealth to cancel your membership and to register you as dependent of your husband. You cannot be a dependent if you are an active member. You can use only one Philhealth membership — that of your husband or yours. 4) No online checking of contributions yet. Your husband needs to get his MDR from Philhealth
Good day,
I am currently pregnant and will be due on July 2013, I have paid Philhealth contribution on October to December 2012, and on January 2013 up to December 2013. (And i also have a 3 month payment way back in 2010, June,july and August) My question is, Can i avail the maternity package of Philhealth?
Thanks and God bless
Hi yeye, yes, you can avail. Oct to Dec 2012 is 3 months. Jan to June 2013 is 6 months. You have paid at least 9 of the 12 months BEFORE July 2013. God bless too
Good day
Im a voluntary member. I am currently pregnant and my due date is MAy 2013, I have paid philheath contribution from july,2012 to december 2013.Can I avail maternity benefits during my labor? God bless.
Hi Malou, yes, you are eligible for maternity benefit. You have paid at least 9 of the 12 months BEFORE May 2013. God bless too. Bring your prenatal ORs too , at least worth 1500 pesos, so Philhealth can give you a refund.
hi.. concern ko lng bout dun sa hipag ko..nanganak sya sa isang lying inn…nkalagay sa labas na Philhealth accredited sya pero nung mgtnong na bout sa billing ang sabi hindi daw pede gamitin philhealth dahil ang policy daw ay kailangan atleast na ka 3times chek up sa kanila.. eh dun lang biglaan nadala kasi talagang emergency at lalabas na yung bata..gang ngayon hindi pa nakakalabas hipag ko ..pde b kmi mgreklamo at saan regarding with these?
Hi myra, ang puede nio sigurong ireklamo ay yong hindi pinapalabas yong mag-ina. Pero yong paglagay ng lying-in ng Philhealth na sign sa labas nila ay okay naman dahil Philhealth accredited nga sila. There’s really a Philhealth rule about prenatal checkups before the 4th month for non-hospital facilities. Sabi mo kasi emergency kaya napapunta don at hindi nio na natanong kung magamit nio ba ang Philhealth o hindi. Kung tinanong nio ang Philhealth pagpasok nio at hindi sinabi yong about prenatal check-up rule, yon ang mali nila. You can ask help from your barangay or your munisipyo or the campaigning politicians — they should be able to help.
makakaavail po ba ako ng maternity benefits kc po ang delivery date ko po ay nov 2013..ang latest contribution ko po ay nov.2012 to april 2013..end na po kc ung contract ko..pwede ko po ipagpatuloy un as voluntary para mkaavail ako ng maternity benefits at ilang months pa ang kaylangan ko hulugan?..thank you.
Hi charmelette, yes, you can avail. To avail as voluntary, pay 9 of the 12 months before NOVEMBER. So paid na ang 6 months mo, 3 months na lang. Pay May to July (3 months) or to Sep na lang para merong sobra. Ask others too.
Magandang araw po! Tanong ko lang po.. Nanganak ako last January 8, 2013 sa isang lying-in, Phic accredited sila pero bakit ganun ndi daw nila ibabawas yung portion ng phic so binayaran ko yung buong bill ko. Pinagprovide pa rin nila ako ng PHIC requirements so after 3 to 4 months daw bago ko marefund yung phic claim ko. Ganun po ba talaga katagal un?? dba po pagPHIC accredited ang isang hospital/maternity clinic dapat ibawas yung phic portion?? Please advise.. 🙁
Hi shella, yes, they should have deducted immediately your coverage. But some lying-ins do that because they need cash. I don’t know if you have the time or if you can take the stress of filing a complaint with Philhealth. Yes, it takes months before you get your refund. Wait for your benefit payment notice via registered mail from Philhealth.
good day,i am currently pregnant and my due date is july 2013,nag work po ako april-september2011 at my hulog po ang philhealth ko then nag work po ulit ako ng april-june2012 then i resigned,bali 3mos. lang po ang my hulog sken last year,pag po ba naituloy ko ang hulog ko maga2mit ko po ba ang philhealth ko? please answer my question,thanks.
Hi keilyn, para maka-avail, you should be able to pay 9 of the 12 months before July 2013 (July 2012 to June 2013). Ang puede mong mabayaran ngayon ay April to June — 3 months lang, kulang ka ng 6 months. Ask others too.
hi po,ask ko po.nanganak ako last dec.1,2013 sa lying in clinic.1 day lang kami don lumabas na kami ksi po nilipat baby ko sa hospital dahil nilagnat.nag bayad pa ako sa lying in ng 1822 para daw sa gamot at room po daw ksi sa semi private room ako 400 po un.normal delivery naman po ako.di ba po kasama na sa package ung gamot at room?tapos sa hospital na comfine baby ko nilagyan ng dextros at oxigen at kung ano ano pa ksi po na kombulsyon po sa kapabayaan ng mga nurse sa lying in.lumabas kami ng hospital na wala pa 24 oras dahil patay ung baby ko 11,163.75 po ang bill pero nag bayad pa kami ng 6,421.00.sa 11,163.75 po ni less lang nila sa philheath ay 3400 at ung dsicount daw eh 1342,75.tama po ba un binayaran ko na un.voluntary member lang po ako.bakit po ganon po kalaki binayaran ko pa.
Hi maria, sori hindi ko masagot accurately. Pero wait for the benefit payment notice from Philhealth. Makikita mo sa notice kung magkano talaga ang binayaran ng Philhealth sa lying-in at sa hospital. Kung kulang ang dinededuct nila, you can ask for refund. Keep your bills, statements and ORs. Xerox also the notice for your copy.
hi po gud day,may katanungan lang po ako,19k po ang nagamit ko sa philhealth kasi cs delivry po ako nung aug 19 2013 tapos nakatanggap po ako ng bpn,meron pa po ba ako makukuha na benefits?tnx
Hi vagelyn, if 19k was already deducted from your bill, you already enjoyed your benefit. No additional benefit to refund.
hi gud pm poh. ask ko lang po due date ako ng april 2014. Dati poh akong ofw last march 2011 at may hulog po ng 900 sa record po pero wala n pong hulog ung from april2012-december 2013. Ngayon po naghulog ako ng jan-march 2014. May posibilidad po ba na magagamit ko h philhealth ko s paganganak ko ngayong april. gusto ko po magkaron ng ideya dahip naguguluhan po ako dahil ng pmunta ako s philhealth ang sabi dapat may hupog ako ng jan-march kya nagbayad ako ng feb para s 3ng buwan n ksalukuyan. ng ngtanong n ako s clinic na kung saan ako nagpapacheck up dapat po ay 6months ang hulog ko sa previous pero ang kaibahan daw po ay di ko na mahuhulugan yung last year ko. ano po dapat kong gawin?
Hi zhay, puede na ngayon ang 3 contributions para sa Individual Payor-Informal Sector, hindi na yong dating 9 months. Eligible ka kasi paid mo ang Jan to Mar at April ang delivery month mo. Liwanagin mo with your clinic kasi sa kanila ka magsa-submit ng documents; hindi na puede ang direct filing.
Good day! I would like to ask also if pwede ko ba dn ma avail ng maternity benifit sa philhealth ko., wala akong contribution straight 2013.,pero sa 2014 january to june nka bayad na ako., july ung due date ko.. 6months lang total contribution, mkaka avail pa ba ak0??

plz tel me po what talaga mga need pa now that im individually paying member and a single mom
Hi mary, you’re already voluntary, so you don’t need your claim form to be signed by your previous employer. Get your MDR form from Philhealth and your Philhealth ID, if they have, but if not, the MDR is enough. Requirements: Premium payment receipt plus certification showing payment of 9 of the past 12 months BEFORE July 2013, MDR, claim form 1, and your ID (Philhealth or valid ID).
hi po,can i avail maternity benefits? may hulog po ang philhealth ko when i was working last april-june2012 tapos hindi ko na po na hulugan,sa july2013 po ang due date ko,pwede ko pa po ba hulugan para magamit ko sa pag aanak ko? please answer,thanks!
Hi Kaylene, sorry ang puede mo na lang bayaran ay April to June — 3 months lang, kulang sa 9 months na required. Requirement is payment of 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of panganganak. Ask others too.
hi mam, ask ko lang po kong ano yong new program ing IPC. pano po yong mga 8 months lang contribution lack ng 1 month kasi due date na?
Hi. ask q lang kung makakapag avail aq ng maternity package kung nung january 2013 lang aq nakapagpamember individually payments puh ung skin. pero may nakalagay na voluntary. ang due date q puh is ngaung june 2013.salamat
Hi renesmee, sorry but for voluntary or individual payors, Philhealth requires payment of 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of child delivery. Jan to May is only 5 months — not enough. Magtanong din sa iba. Take care
Hi gud pm! Im currently self employed or they are calling individual payment, i just paid from jan to march 2012, then october to dec 2012 then jan to june 2013,but my due date for delivery is end of this may is it possible that i can use my philhealth?thanks grace
Hi Grace, sayang pero kulang yata ng 2 months. Dapat paid ang 9 of the 12 months BEFORE May. Oct to Dec is 3 months and Jan to Apr is 4 months, so 7 months lang; kulang. Ask others too. Take care
Hello po ask kolang po kung nagbayad lang ako ng last october to dec 2012 and jan to march 2013 dati po na individual ako then pina transfer kopo ng ofw kc mtagal narin ako m ofw now pinbayaran kopo ang april to march 2014 na for transfer n ng ofw. Ngayon po mangaganak ako ng may 2013 makka avail kopoba ang philhealth ko.. Slamat po
Hi Rosalie, yes, you are eligible if your status is OFW, kasi your month of delivery (May) is within April 2013 to Mar 2014. Dapat, the receipt shows you are OFW and your MDR also shows you are OFW. If your status was not yet changed, show your OEC or OFW job contract or work visa to Philhealth to change your status to OFW.
hi! gud afternoon! pwede po bang ilagay ako ng boyfriend ko as his dependents? we’re not yet married but we’re living together. thanks and god bless!
Hi helen, sorry you cannot be a dependent of your boyfriend because Philhealth requires a marriage certificate. You can register as a Philhealth member if you like.
hi ms. Nors, How can I avail the maternity benefits if I’ve lost my receipt??
Hi analyn, get a certificate of eligibility for maternity benefit from Philhealth. Get also your MDR from Philhealth. Bring your ID.
Hi!goodmrning po..ask ko lang,kung magpapakasal kami ng partner ko ngayong May,at maging dependent nya ako.,makakakuha ba ako ng maternity package gamit ang philhealth niya kahit bagong kasal lang?June po kasi ang due ko.Voluntary member po pero hindi pwede mkaavail ng maternity benefits dahil jan-mar 2013 palang po ang hulog ko.Yung kasal lang po naiisip namin na way.
Thanks!
Hi Mariz, yes, you can qualify as long as you can present your marriage certificate to Philhealth so you can update his member data record. Presenting the marriage certificate to the hospital is also allowed, but the hospital might not deduct outright, so update before delivery.
Hi, ask ko lang po since im not qualified to avail my maternity benefits kc ang payment ko is from Jan 2011 to June 2012 and Jan 2013 to Dec 2013, my due date is on Sept 2013 so i have only 8 months contribution?? Pwede ko nalang po b gamitin ang philhealth ng husband ko since updated yong sa kanya?? or im not qualified parin kc pareho kaming naghuhulog??
pls. reply..
Thanks,
Hi Chilyn, nasagot ko na ito under sa ibang article. Pero sige. Yes, you can use your husband’s Philhealth as long as he’s eligible (updated contributions). So that you qualify as dependent, you ask your husband to update his Philhealth records and register you as his dependent. He brings his IDs, and your letter, puedeng handwritten, asking Philhealth to cancel your membership and registering you as his dependent.
hello ask q lng mkapag avail po kaya aq ng maternity benefits…naghulog po aq voluntary from jan 2013 to june 2013.ang due date q is septemper 21,2013 pede q kaya hulugan ung from july to september 2013 para magsakto na 9months ang hulog ko????
Hi jovel, for voluntary membership and maternity case, 9 monthly payments are required (within the 12-month period before month of delivery). Jan to Aug is only 8 months — kulang. Please ask others too. Or ask Philhealth kung open na uli yong Individual Policy Contract (IPC) nila, para pupuede yong case mo.
Hello po thanks po s response…ako po ay under ng IPC contract automatic po ba un na ma aavail q ang maternity benefits??????…bayad q na dn po ngaun ung from july to september….
hi, ask ko lang regarding sa prenatal care benefits im 8months pregnant and wala na din yung mga receipt ko maaivail ko pa ba sya??? panu?? tnx much:)
Hi julie, sorry, Philhealth need prenatal care ORs so they can refund up to 1500 (for normal delivery only).
hello, gusto ko lang malaman kung halimbawa june2011 pa ung last n hulog ko sa philheath then binayaran ko yung mga kulang ko pwede ko ba magamit ung philhealth ko for operation ng asawa ko?nxt month yung sked ng operation ng asawa ko employed kasi ako dati then now self employed,if not pwede ko ba xa mareimburse pagtagal? thank u in advance!
janet
Hi janet, sorry pero pag voluntary or self-employed at surgery ang case, required na nabayaran ang 9 sa 12 months BEFORE month of operation. Meron ding deadline ang pagbayad ng Philhealth premium. What you can pay this month are April to June and so on. Magtanong din sa iba.
helow po ask q lng po if ma avail q na po maternity benefits ng start po q nghulog ng nov.2012 for one year na po un self employed po aq then due date q po ng july 31. tnx po ..
Hi jenn, ang binibilang ay yong 9 sa loob ng 12 months BEFORE month of delivery. Nov 2012 to June 2013 is only 8 months. If you give birth in Aug, puede, kasi Nov 2012 to July 2013 is 9 months. Magtanong din sa iba. Ask Philhealth if their Individual Policy Contract program is being offered again, baka puede ka.
helow ask q lng po if ma avail q na po maternity benefits voluntary po aq at ngstart aq last nov.2012 i paid whole year in advanced due date q po is july 2013 ..
tnx po ..
hi! my due will be on Nov.2013..i haven’t paid for d remittance yet since I am an EX OFW.if ever i can pay Semi annual by june 2013 then by July 2013 i will pay the other balance, can i avail for it??thanks a lot…
Hi Christine, you said you’re an ex-OFW, so you will pay as Voluntary. The payments they will accept this May are April to Oct — only 7 months, not enough for the requirement of paying 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery. You can ask Philhealth if they are offering the Individual Policy Contract so you can avail. Please ask others too about your case.
hi. my due date is on dec2013. i was previously employed in a private company back in jan2012. right now, i want to change to IPC. would philhealth still allow me to pay contribution from january2013 to june2013 so that i can avail the maternity benefits? april to nov2013 is only 8months. would they still consider it? thanks..
Hi kenken, it’s great that you understand the counting of months. And sorry you will lack 1 month because what I know is that they will no longer accept payments for the 1st quarter. You can ask Philhealth if they’re again offering the Individual Policy Contract so you can avail (they suspended this program in March 2013)
I have last pyment on the mont of october2012-febuary2013, due date ko po is on september, counted pa po ba yong. October till december2012? Kulang pa po un pwra. Ma reach ko ung nine months, ano po ba amg mga requirements?
Hi shantal, paid ang Oct 2012 to Feb 2013? 5 months ito. Ang puede mong bayaran this June ay April to Aug — 5 months ito. So eligible ka. Kung kulang pa ang pera, bayaran mo lang ang April May and June = 450 pesos. Then next month, you pay 300 for July and August. Pakicheck ang counting ko para sure. Mag-count ka ng 12 months backward o pabalik from due mo na September. Dapat sa 12 months na yan, meron kang paid na 9 months. Please ask others para sure.
Hello po kung nag file ako ng philheath ko ngyon april at binayaran ko na ito lahat hanggang december cost 1,350 daw magagamit ko po ba ang benepisyo nito sa panganganak ko sa bwan ng december din?
hi Teresa, April to November is only 8 months. 9 months ang required for maternity. Ang binibilang ay the months BEFORE. Pero ask others too para sure.
hello po, im currently pregnant and ang due date ko po is jan 02 2014, nag work po ako dati from may to feb 2011 hanggang dun lng din po ang nahulugan ng employer ko then nag resign po ako..nahinto po yung hulog ko sa philhealth papano ko po ulit icocontinue yung philhealth ko pra magamit ko ito sa panganganak ko sa jan 2014?
Hi VGAM, pay April to June asap (deadline is end of June), and then pay July to Dec later on (pay before deadlines). Sa Philhealth branch ka magbayad so you can update your data and get your MDR and ID kung available na.
hello mam,
ask ko lng po, pag dineactivate po ba ung membership q to give way na maging dependent po aq ng husband q, maging non-existent na po ba ung philhealth q? Pano po pag nagwork po uli aq?
One thing pa po mam, pwde po ba sa Philhealth office nlng po humingi ng certification for paid premiums dun po sa mga nahulog sa account q nung nagwork pa po aq?
Thank u po.
Hi Icon, yes, when you work again, you’ll be an active member again. You’ll use the same Philhealth number. Sorry I’m not sure if Philhealth is giving certificates of premium payments, (kasi sa dami ng members, they’re not encouraging requests like this) but they might if you give a valid reason why you can’t get this certification from your employer. Ang alam kong binibigay nila is certificate of eligibility kung makulit ang hospital sa documentary requirements sa pasyente.
Hello po
My sister is currently at 3rd month pregnant, wala po siyang philhealth, at wala ring trabaho, papaano po ba at magkano ang proseso para po ma avail nya ito sa pag papanganak nya. Malaking tulong po kasi talaga ito.
sa mama ko naman po meron na po syang philhealth kaso mo huminto po sya ng pagbabayad mga dalawang taon na. paano at magkano po ba mag renew.. salamat
Hi Vhiely, if your sis gives birth in Dec, late na siya for Philhealth kasi dapat nakabayad ng 9 months BEFORE month of delivery. What you can pay this month are only Apr to Nov = 8 months. Pero kung January, puede pa. Payment deadline for every quarter is the last day of the quarter. If she can’t avail, there are maternity clinics that offer affordable delivery packages.
hi , gudEve .. ask ko lang po , january 2014 ang duedate ko , msasakop parin po ba ng pilhealth pag ngstart ako mgbyad ngaun ? ngaun lang po kc ko mgeemploy sa pilhealth .. thanks po
Hi monique, yes, pay Apr to Dec 2013 — exactly 9 months. Deadline for Apr to June (2nd quarter) payment is last paying day of June.
hello! I will be giving birth this last week of june 2013. I paid my philhealth dues for october 2012-dec 2013. can i avail of the maternity package? thank you po.
Hello! I just want to ask if I can avail of the maternity package if I paid october 2012-december 2013 and my due date is end of June 2013? thanks!
Hi Mary, requirement is payment of 9 of 12 months BEFORE month of delivery. Oct 2012 to May 2013 is only 8 months. Sorry, kulang. Pero ask others too.
hi po ask lng po ako…this coming sept 30,2013 ang due ko ko, tapos last year palang po ako nakapag open nang philhealth,last year naka bayad lang po ako nang 2quarter lng,,, din this year 2013 nakabayad po ako na 3 quarter,, magagamit kona po ba itong philhealth,,
Hi jennalyn, nabayaran mo ba ang kahit anong month (1 month) within Sep to Dec 2012? If yes, you qualify for maternity benefit dahil nabayaran mo ang 9 of the 12 months BEFORE September.
Hi. Just want to check if i’m qualified for the maternity benefit. I just resigned last may 2013. My employer’s last payment for my philhealth was last january 2013. I was planning to pay voluntarily. My due date is on oct 8 2013. Thanks! 🙂
Hi Kate, pay Apr to June on or before June 29, and then later on July to Sep. Make sure you have paid at least 9 months of Oct 2012 to Sep 2013 (12 months BEFORE month of delivery, pakicheck ang counting ko), including those paid by your employer. Get a certificate of premium payment (Oct to Jan with OR nos) from your employer.
hi poh..jst want to ask po f i can avail the philhealth benefit f hnd ko nhulugan ung jan to march 2013 pero last yr kumpleto ko nmn poh,tpus april to dec 2013 npaid ko na xa kz inadvance n hulog koh..ung due date ng panganganak ko kz is dec 2013..my macclaim pv ako nun?
Hi honeybee, if your due is Dec 2013, mukhang puede, meron ka yatang 9 months. Help me count. Dapat merong paid na 9 months sa loob ng Dec 2012 to Nov 2013. Apr to Nov = 8, Dec 2012 = 1, total 9. Please check my counting.
hello po.
good day!
Inquire lang po ako,currently employed po ako and i was on a approved vacation leave because of fragile pregnancy po since january this year until present.
makaka avail po ba ako ng maternity benefits if last contribution ng company ko is December 2012? This July na po ang date ng CS delivery ko.ano po mga requirements?
thank you so much po.
Hi Catherine, pay April to June 2013 asap as Voluntary (deadline June 29 or June 30 if payment center is open on the 30th). I think you will file as Voluntary because you’re on leave, so your employer cannot pay your Philhealth. You can’t file as Employed because the requirement is payment of 3 of the 6 months BEFORE delivery. For Voluntary: payment of 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery.
Get certification of premiums with OR nos. from your employer (July to Dec 2012 = 6 months); add to your voluntary payment Apr to June = 3 months, total 9 months.
Hi. My due is on July 30. This year po ako nagupdate ng surname.. Makakaapekto po ba yun sa number ng months ng contribution ko?
Thank you po
Hi Michelle, bring your premium receipts and marriage certificate (xerox and orig) para may proof na the same person kahit different surname.
Kung mag avail ng IPC, magagamit ko na ba ang maternity benefit ko kahit 7 months lang before my due? Nag resign kc ako sa work dec. then nagchange ako to individually paying.. Nagbayad ako march-dec.
Hi Anne, count 12 months backwards from your delivery month. Don’t count your delivery month. Sa loob ng 12 months na yan, dapat 9 months ang nabayaran mo, either noong employed ka or noong hindi na.
Hi Anne, suspended kasi ang IPC. Count 12 months backward from your month of delivery. Don’t count delivery month. Check kung nabayaran mo ang 9 months sa 12 months na yan, either during employment or noong unemployed ka na.
hi im currently working im 6 months from my work this july im 2 months pregnant now..may makukuha po ba akong maternity???thank you
Hi clarisse, yes, you’re eligible. For employees, the requirement is payment of 3 of the 6 months BEFORE month of delivery.
Hi Goodevening. Tanong ko lang po kung pwede ko pang mahabol magbayad for may maternity due on November 2013 kung magbabayad ako ng whole year? I am 5 months pregnant na po ngayong july 2013. Hindi pa po kame kasal ng asawa ko. Thanks po.
Hi abt, puede mong bayaran ang July to Oct — pero 4 months lang, kulang sa requirement na payment of 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery.
Hello po, ask k lng if same parin ba ang benifit na matatanggap kahit na different ang premiums. 12000 po binayad ng asawa ko last april good for one year.dependent nya po ako.november po due ko. will i be able to receive 6500 provided that all i have the OR’s and other requirements?
Hi Sunshine, kulang yata. Apr to Oct ay 7 months lang, kulang sa requirement na payment of 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery.
Good pm po ask ko lng po kung mkaka avail po b ako ng benefit ng philhealth last payment ko po is aug 2012… Kc ngresign npo ako..im 6months preg now my due date will be on last week of oct this year…then npunta po ako ng philhealth last week to change my status from employs to self employd,..ang inallow lng po nilang byaran ko e yung july-december2013.. Nkaka avail po b ako ng benefits nila..thank you po
Hi Glaisa, sorry parang hindi. Ang July to Sep ay 3 months lang, plus Aug 2012 = 4 months lang. Dapat nabayaan ang 9 of the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery (before October). Ask others too
Hi.Gud pm. Ask ko po sana EDD ko po ay Sept2013. 2012 Jan-March and Oct di po nahulugan dahil lumipat ako ng work. but Nov2012 to March 2013 my hulog ng employer ko po ulit and April to Dec 2013 complete paid na po ang contribution ko. Magagamit ko po ba pag nanganak ako sa Sept2013 ang philhealth benefits ko po? Thank you for response.
Hi Zhan, yes, you’re eligible. Assuming you’re Voluntary because you paid in advance: Paid ang 9 of the 12 months BEFORE Sep 2013, so eligible ka.
gud am po,tanong lng po.. Diba po b 6500 ang phealth via normal delivery?bkt po kya 4500 lng ang ileless smin sa reimbursement namin s lying in?saan mapupunta ung 2000? Bale kc package nila ay 10k with O.b
Un,di dw ksma ang O.B s philheath?byad s kanya eh 5500 kya 4500 lng dw ang less.
Hi shiela, yong 2k puedeng para sa lying-in o sa OB. Ang assumption ko ay promo technique na lang nila yan (baka 10k ang package ng kakumpitensiya diyan sa area), kasi puede naman nilang sabihing 12k ang package para 6500 ang galing sa Philhealth at 5500 ang galing sa inyo. Eksaktong 12k ang total at hindi na magtataka pa ang pasyente.
another question,bkt po kya wlang laman ang actual premium ko sa philhealth?employd ako at updated naman hulog nila skn kc nkakuha ako ng cert of contribution galing sa employer ko?ano b dapat ko gawin para maview n mismo sa acc ko ang hulog nila?tnx
Hi shiela, meron bang OR nos ang mga premium payments sa certificate? Puedeng humingi ng copy of receipts sa employer para meron kang maipakita sa hospital kung hindi pa na-post sa Philhealth ang applicable premiums.
tnx po sa maam nors sa reply,
hi my contributions po ako from sept 2011 to dec 2012 then april & may 2013…strting june wala na akong work ksi im pregnant at nagpkasal kmi..so, wla po akong cntribution nitong june at july..eligible ba ako s maternity benefits for dependents ng philhealth kahit kakapkasal lng namin?ngayong august pa po ako mailalagay as dependent sa philhealth ng hubby ko…thanks
Hi hanna, basta kasal na kayo before your delivery, at updated ang payments ng husband mo, eligible ka. Pag voluntary, count 12 months backward from your month of delivery. Don’t count your delivery month. Sa 12 months na yan, dapat nabayaran mo ang 9 months. Pag employed ang husband mo, payment of 3 of 6 months BEFORE month of delivery lang ang required
Good day..tanong lang po.EDD ko po ay Sept2013. nagbayad po ako ng contribution ng buong taon, January – December 2013. Individually Paying Member po ako. Magagamit ko po ba pag nanganak ako sa Sept2013 ang philhealth benefits ko? Thank you for response.
Hi Thina, sorry kulang ng 1 month. Jan to August is only 8 months; dapat 9 months BEFORE month of delivery. Please ask others too
Gud day.tanong lang po.EDD ko po September 2013 at nagbayad ako ng contribution ng Jan.-Dec.2013.Individually Paying Member po ako..Magagamit ko po ba pag nanganak ako sa Sept2013 ang philhealth benefits ko? Thank you for response.God bless..
ask ko lang po second baby ko na ito, first baby ko is cs ako thus it means on my second baby pag cs uli ako di na ako puwede mag claim sa philhealth? thanks
Hi Shane, you can again claim and get CS coverage as long as it’s Indicated CS, the hospital and ob-gyne are accredited and you’re updated with your Philhealth payments.

Hi Glenda, June to Aug is only 3 months, kulang sa required na 9 months paid BEFORE delivery. Sori hindi eligible. Ask others too. http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/

Hi lyn, puede kang mag-start na bayaran ang July basta kasama ang Aug and Sep, meaning pay 3rd quarter. Anong expected month of delivery mo? Tingnan mo ito: http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/
Ask ko lang po kung mkaka avail ako ng maternity benefits, last contribution ko was last year and valid until dis coming oct, ang uwi ko pa sa pinas is next year jan so dun pa ako mkabayad for d whole year ulit…plan ko kasi manganak sa pinas..mkaka avail po kaya ako?thnx po
Hi melanie, basta sure mo mo na makabayad ka as OFW pagdating dito bago ka manganak. Present proof of being OFW or get your OEC immediately. For OFWs, dapat ma-cover ang date of delivery within sa validity dates sa premium receipt. If you like, para sure, magbayad ka na lang diyan through IRemit or Skyfreight or Ventaja kasi puede namang you pay in advance ang Oct 2013 to Oct 2014.
Hi I would like to ask if I can avail the maternity benefits if I started paying my contribution last april 2013 until december 2013 as my advanced payment, that would be 2nd to 4th quarter.

Hi cenalyn, ang period na titingnan kung meron kang nabayaran na 9 months ay within the 12 months BEFORE month of delivery

Please ask others too. http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/

Hi aida, yes, you can process your husband’s Philhealth. Bring to Philhealth your husband’s authorization letter, copy of his ID, your ID and your marriage certificate. Kung dati kang Philhealth member, write a letter to Philhealth asking them to cancel your membership and to register you as your husband’s dependent.

Hi She, yes, your qualified beneficiaries can use your Philhealth. You can verify at Philhealth if your employer is remitting your payments. You can ask your HR or Philhealth about Ids if they’re already available.

Hello, Good day, I am an OFW, my previous philhealth contribution was in year 2010 and after that i did’nt pay 2011 onwards, I am now expecting to deliver in Nov 2013 by ceasarian operation, my question is, if I pay the premium for the month of Sept 2013 to Aug. 2014 monthly premium, will I be able to avail the Php 19,000 maternity benefit deducted to my hospital bills? My husband is also an OFW but he dont have a copy of MDR and E receipt. Thanks in advance and God bless!!
Hi Evangeline, yes, if you pay as OFW, you can avail because you’re OFW and your receipt’s validity dates of Sep 2013 to Aug 2014 covers the month of Nov 2013. Talk to your ob-gyne about your total expense if you have Philhealth.
if sa public hospital po ako manganganak at wla pong bayad dun.. pde ko pa po bang ma claim ang maternity benefit ko? and paano po ang process nun?
Hi mreyestan, sori, hindi mo ma-claim kasi wala kang binayaran, meaning wala kang receipt na maipakita sa Philhealth.

Hi cy, puede nang hindi kasi meron ka nang 11 months na mabilang. Please ask others too http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/
Good day! While reading the other comments, I found out that you should be able to pay 9 monthly premium contributions within the last 12mos before your maternity confinement. I had paid the premium contribution (as a private company worker) from February 2012 up to March 2013. When I resigned, I continued paying the premium contribution (as a self-employed member) from March until June 30 of this year. I wasn’t able to pay anything after that. So just to clarify, am I still eligible for the maternity benefits? I am due to give birth this September. Thanks a lot and will wait for your response 🙂
Hi Sarah, you’re eligible for the maternity benefit. Ask for certification of applicable premium payments with OR nos. from your previous employer. Please ask others too http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/
Good day po! Kapanganak ko lng po ngyun sept 5, di po nmn magamit philhealth po ng husband ko dahil kulng po yun hulog nya di po nahulugan ng january to may 2013, simula po 2004 po kumpleto po hulog nmn,yun lng po jan to may 2013 ang wala,wala na po ba pag asa mahabol po yun sayang po kc!
Hi maru, sori, ganun kasi ang health insurance, dapat updated sa premium payment. At saka merong deadline ang payment ng premiums.
Hi Ma’m,
Good day po!
Confirm ko lang according sa details na indicated 9-12 months backward. Paano po kung Oct 2013 ako manganganak then bayad po ako ng jan 2010 – dec 2012 since may work po ako pasok ang Oct 2012 – sept 2013, at nag-individual payor po ako from apr 2013 – dec 2013. Meaning makakapag-avail po ako ng maternity benefit kahit ndi po ako nakabayad from jan 2013 – mar 2013 since bayad po ako ng/sa 9 months of 12 months period from oct 2012 – sept 2013.
Thank you so much for your response.
Hi Gabrielle, yes, kahit meron kang gap sa payments, eligible ka kasi paid mo ang 9 of the 12-month period from Oct2012 to Sep2013. Get a cert of premium payments with OR nos. for Oct to Dec 2012, or get a cert of eligibility from Philhealth to present to the hospital together with your receipt as Individual Payor

Hi nicz, thanks for appreciating my blog. Pero sorry na delayed ang replies ko this week because of my job. Yes, pay ASAP 1 year in advance as OFW so your due date of last week of Sep2013 is covered by your OR dates. I hope nakabayad ka na as OFW. Keep your receipt and get also your MDR from Philhealth. take care
Hi po tanong ko lang kung may paraan p po n maka avail kami ng maternity benefits.ung asawa ko po kasi ay employed simula nung june2013 pero hindi po nahulugan ung philhealth nia.eh manganganak po ako ng nov.2013 pwede po kaya na mag voluntary member siya kahit employed siya dahil sa wala naman po kaming nakitang hulog ng employer niya sa payslip niya.makaka avail po kaya kami ng maternity benefit pag ng voluntary contribute ‘siya
Tapos hulugan n lang namin ung june hanggang october?
Hi rochelle, hindi na mahahabol pag individual payor, kasi 9 contributions ang kelangan. Dapat kausapin ang employer, kasi yan ang puede, payment of Philhealth contributions for 3 of the past 6 months lang ang kelangan kapag employed.
voluntarily paying po ako. nkabayad ako april 1, 2013-dec 31,2013 at manganganak po ako 1st week ng dec. tanong ko po mkakaavail po ba ako ng maternity package?.salamat po

Hi Ria, sori late na. Ang payment deadline for any month is the last day of the month. For quarterly payment, the deadline is the last day of the quarter.

Hi mj, I’m not sure kung puede mo pang bayaran ang July to Sep. Pero bayaran mo ang Oct to Dec asap; kung Dec o Jan ang due mo, baka puede ka pang qualified, basta meron kang 9 months na nabayaran sa loob ng 12 months BEFORE your month of delivery, kahit merong laktaw. Check mo ito: http://www.healthphilippines.net/2013/07/individual-payor-eligible-philhealth-maternity-benefit/
Hi, I am an active philhealth member. My philhealth ID bears my married name. We have an ongoing annulment case. I am now pregnant by my new partner and due next year. Will I be able to use my philhealth benefits even if I use my maiden name in the hospital?
Hello! My due date will be on January next year. wala po akung posted na contribution but I have my certificate of contribution from my company before. as of now since I resigned already, nag self-contribute nlang po aku as per advised din po from you. sapat na po ba ang contribution ko from January-September? ang nabayad ko po months of August and September.
Hi Christine, ah Jan 2014 pala ang due mo. Nabayaran mo ba ang Jan 2013 to Sep 2013? 9 months? If yes, oo, eligible ka, kasi nabayaran mo ang 9 of the 12 months BEFORE Jan 2014.
hi po. mag 8 months pregnant na po ako this second week of october. almost 1 yr. ako sa dating kong work ko then nag resigned po ako last yr. dec. then nakapag work ulit by feb. 25, 2013 at nag resigned ulit april 15, 2013 kasi maselan ang pagbubuntis. Na stop po ang payment ko by april Hindi po ako aware sa terms and conditions ng philhealth na dapat mag pay ng 9 months within 12 months i thought maka avail po ako. there’s no chance na po ba to avail the maternity benefits kung bayaran ko ang ang may-oct.???
Sori jasmin, pero hindi na tatanggapin ang payments for May and June; yong July to Sep, baka hindi na rin, kasi ang deadline for every quarter is the last day of the quarter. Ask others too
hi good afternoon, ask ko lng if from october 2011- september2013, tuloy tuloy payment ng company na pinasukan ko sa philhealth, then my delivered would be on december2012-or january2013, then ng stop ako sa work this september 2013 lng, pede pa rin ba ako maka avail ng maternity benefits?
thank you
Hi ma victoria, yes, you’ll be eligible. Make sure na paid ang Jan to Sep 2013 (9 months). Ask a cert of premium payments with OR nos for 2012 from your employer. Ask others too para sure na sure
REPOST: My question remained unaswered:
Hi, I am an active philhealth member. My philhealth ID bears my married name. We have an ongoing annulment case. I am now pregnant by my new partner and due next year. Will I be able to use my philhealth benefits even if I use my maiden name in the hospital?
Hi Nheng, nasagot ko na ito sa isang post. Anyway, if your IDs are in your married name and if your Philhealth record is in your married name, and then you use your maiden name in the hospital, the hospital cannot process your Philhealth claim because there’s a discrepancy in surname (unless you already have an annulment paper to support your change in surname). The IDs, Philhealth record and patient name should show the same names.
What is usually acceptable is the reverse — when the IDs and Philhealth record are in maiden name and patient name is under married name (patient shows the marriage cert to support change in surname).
This option can also be possible — if months ago, you have registered and paid Philhealth under your maiden name and you have IDs in your maiden name, then you can use these in the hospital.
Good day po, dec po due date ko, dec2012-feb2013 employed ako, then i stopped working, june 24 i was hired until now, eligible po ba ako?
Hi renel, do you mean you’ve been employed since June? If so, yes, you’re eligible because for employed you need only 3 months of premium payments (3 of the 6 months before Dec).
Hello=)! I’ll be giving birth this last week of Nov2013 in San Juan de Dios Hospital.. I’m just confused because I have asked few women who gave birth in that hospital and their Philhealth deductions in their hospital bills vary.. My question is, bakit po nangyayari na 3k lang ang nade-deduct sa hospital bill ng ilang patient imbes na 5k? meaning eh wala po na-less sa PF ng doctor, di po ba dapat na automatic Philhealth accredited din lahat ng OB ng isang Philhealth accredited hospital? please answer, I’m confused.
Hi Lynn, not all OBs are Philhealth-accredited even if the hospital is accredited. Yes, sad to say, many OBs do not refund or do not deduct the 2k benefit; they get the 2k as additional to their PF (sabi ng ilan, kapalit daw ng time and effort nila to fill up the papers). They can do this because they can dictate their PF; example their original PF is 25k — they can just say their PF is 27k so they can refund the 2k to the patient, and in the end, it’s just the same, they got 25k.

One thing more po, tama po ba un pagkakaintindi ko na ung Prenatal Care (P1500) at New Born Care (P1750) eh hindi po mababawas agad sa hospital bill pag na-discharge na ako? Bale po ipapadala na lang ng Philhealth ung cheque ng Prenatal at New Born Care via postal mail sa address ko po, tama po ba?
Isa pa po pala, ung mga laboratory tests ko po na gagamitin ko to avail for the Prenatal care benefit eh ginawa sa isang diagnostic center lang at hindi po sa mismong hospital kung saan ako manganganak, okay lang po ba un?? I really hope to be enlightened,, thank you po, and GOD bless.
Hi Lynn, about prenatal care refund, yes, submit the ORs along with your maternity claim and Philhealth will send you the check. Yes, even if prenatal care was done in another facility as long as the ORs bear your name. Newborn care can be immediately deducted or can be refunded depending on the hospital/pedia. You submit 2 sheets of claim form 1, one for maternity claim and the other for newborn.
Hi, my last contribution when i was employed in Manila was last april 2012, then I became an OFW in Singapore I’m currently pregnant and my due will be on Jan 1, 2014. I already resigned and will go back to Manila again to give birth and stay for good. My problem is, I was not able to continue my Philhealth contribution. How / What can I do to avail maternity benefits?
Hi Kath, pay your Philhealth while you’re still there in Singapore, so you can pay as OFW. But if you no longer have OFW papers, upon arriving here, go to Philhealth with your ID, update your record and check Informal Sector as your category, then pay Oct Nov and Dec so you can avail of maternity coverage.
Hi, my last contribution when i was employed in Manila was last april 2012, and i became an OFW last Aug 2012. I’ll be going back to manila coz i’m giving birth due on Jan 1, 2014. how/what can I do to avail maternity benefits?
Hi, maam may tanong lang ako nag contribute ako april to dec 2013 sa philpheath but my delivery is january 2014 puede ko bang magamit ko yung philhealth sa aking pagpanganank? Salamat More power..
Hi len, merong new announcement from Philhealth about Informal Sector members. Update your registration with Philhealth and check Informal Sector so you can qualify for the 3-month payment requirement, at hindi na 9-month required payments.
hello po… ask ko lang po kung panu ang procedure para makareceived ng BPN galing Philhealth? Naaksedente po ako. (bone fracture)inoperahan po ito sa isang private hospital. 5% lang po ang nakaltas sa billing ko where in sa 5% na to parang hindi pa nakakaltasan ang professional fee ng mga doctor na nag-opera sa akin kc po ang nakalagay sa billing ko is Surgeon:net of philheath P..,… wala pong computation na nakalagay…
Hi quin, wait for your benefit payment notice from Philhealth to be delivered via registered mail in about 3 to 8 months, then ask for refund from the hospital if there’s a discrepancy in deduction. Keep your hospital ORs.
Gud pm po ms. Nors, my concern lng po ako about my contribution ng start ako last April 2013 til Dec 3013 bayad po ung monthly contribute as voluntary member my due date po is january 2014,maavail ko na po ba ung benifits pwede ko na po ba i process ung mga requirements ?pls kindly answer tnx more power..godbless
Hi Jhane, Aprl to Dec is 9 months, so you’re eligible. Keep your premium receipt and xerox it. Get your MDR from Philhealth.
Hi. May nakapagsabi kasi sakin na pwede ko pa daw hulugan ang January to March 2013?? .. Nakapaghulog ako mula April to December 2013, mahuhulugan ko pa ba talaga un?? Kung hindi na, magagamit ko kaya ang Philhealth ko this December kasi manganganak ako?? Thanks!
Hi Jace, sori hindi na po. Mag-update ka ng record mo sa Philhealth at ilagay mong Informal Sector ang category mo para maka-avail ka. Pag Informal Sector category, 3 months lang ang required. Ask Philhealth too.
hello po..nagwork po ako from feb.26 to may 6 2013..nagresign po ako ng may..tinuloy ko po pag babayad sa philhealth from july to december 2013..maavail ko po ba yung bebefits??
Hi joyce, yes, you can avail. Ask cert of premium payments from your former employer para meron kang copy. Keep your own receipts.
Hi ask ko lang, kung mkaka avail pa ko ng maternity benefit, kasi this monday (dec 2 ) nag babalak ako mag file ng maternity bnefit nga poh, and ang nhuhulugan ko pa lang e feb-june 2013 kasi nag wowork ako niyan, june 2013 naendo na ko, so 5 months pa lang, sa monday, balak ko bayaran yung 4 months Aug-dec 2013? para ma cover yung 9 months, pwede pba? pero sa January 2014 ako manga nganak, is it possible?
Hi Mary, hindi na puedeng bayaran ang Aug to Sep 2013. Ang puedeng bayaran ay Oct to Dec 2013. Magregister ka as Informal Sector member. Then tanungin mo ang Philhealth kung eligible ka na for your Jan 2014 delivery kasi meron ka nang 3-month payment at Informal Sector member ka. Kung hindi puede, isuggest nila yong 1-year payment.
HI CAN I ASK AGAIN?
Working ako from feb-june 2013, tas na endo na ko, someone is advicing me na bayaran ko daw ngayun ung annual na 1,800.00 to avail maternity benefit, tas sa monday pa lang ako mag fa file…. so mcocover ko ung whole 9 months this 2013…. pero sa January 2014 pa ko manganganak, makakaltasan bko niyan sa bill????
hello po, pwede ko po bang magamit ang philhealth ko im giving birth to my 3rd child this march 2014, kaso po hiwalay napo ako sa husband ko at may bago napo akung ka live-in ngayon, sa ngayon po di po kami legally separated ng dati kung asawa, at buntis po ako ngayon sa iba. Balak ko po sanang gamitin ang philhealth ko kasi anyway ako naman po ang nagbabayad ng monthly contribution deducted from my salary kasi employed po ako. Tanong ko lang po kung ma avail ko po ba ito sa panganganak ko at CS pa po ang advise ng doktor ko. Thanks po
Hi Beanna, yes, you’re eligible dahil you’re a Philhealth member and you’re employed. Pag employed, payment of contributions for 3 of the past 6 months lang ang requirement. Walang kaso kung anuman ang civil status mo dahil ikaw naman ang member.
Pag employed member po ba, need ng 3 months contribuion lng? or 9 months din? thanks
I orked b4 in an NGO, nkpag remit cla ng from January to August contribution ko..Then now working ako sa ibang company now. Dec 20 pa daw mg remit den one month lng bbyran. Pede po ba ako mgpay for Oct to Nov? Am I still qualified for the maternity benefit of Philhealth? Thanks! 🙂
Hi po.. mka avail po ba ako ng benefits dati po kasi ako nag work seaprivate company last Nov. 2011 so na cutoff yung remittance ko kasi nag end n yung contract ko.

Pwede ko po bang bayaran ang July-September 2013 para po maka avail ako s benefits??? Please po I really need your reply asap.. malapit n kasi mag end ang
2013
Hi Jorel, hindi na puedeng bayaran ang July to Sep 2013. Mag-update ka uli with Philhealth para Informal Sector ang category mo, at para 3 months lang ang requirement. Pay also Jan to Apr 2014.

Hi maydebien, yes, you’re eligible. Update your MDR so your category is Individual Payor — Informal Sector, so your 3-month payment (Sep Oct Nov) would be enough for eligibility.
Hello po..Manganganak po ako on June 2014. need your reply po.I worked before in an NGO, nkpag remit sila ng from January to August contribution ko..Then now working ako sa ibang compan. Tapos on Dec 20 pa daw mg remit tapos one month lng babayaran nila. Pede po ba ako mgpay for Oct to Nov? or pwede di ko na bayaran kasi diba for employed members dapat 3 months contribution lng. Am I still qualified for the maternity benefit of Philhealth? Confused po kasi ako kasi sabi nila ang 9 months contribution is kasama din employed dun sa updated na Philhealth.thanks!
Hi Jana, kung employed ka pa in June 2014, eligible ka kasi mababayaran ng employer mo ang Dec 2013 to May 2014 — kasya na ito to comply with the requirement na 3 months for employed members. In the event that you get unemployed when you give birth, register as Individual Payor (Informal Sector category) so you can qualify. Informal Sector requires only 3 contributions immediately before confinement.

Hello, my husband and I are both voluntary members ng philhealth… so, can we BOTH claim for maternity benefits? O isa lang samin pwede mag-claim, either ako or him if I am declared as his dependent? Is there a difference in what maternity benefits we can each claim (iba sa kanya as father, iba sakin as mother)?
Hi Ging, you can use only 1 membership. For convenience, use yours. Later on, if you like to save on premiums, cancel your membership and ask your husband to register you as his dependent.
Hello, I am married, pregnant and just resigned last October 2013. I was not declared as dependent by my husband who is an active member. I am about to give birth by April. I want to continue my contribution, what are the requirements for me to update my status and claims for maternity benefits. Thank you
Hi van, you can save on premiums by asking your husband to register you as his dependent. He updates his member data by presenting your marriage cert (xerox and orig) and your letter asking Philhealth to cancel your membership because you have been unemployed since Oct 2013 and to register you as your husband’s dependent.
Hi po, nag-resign ako last March 2013 at na stop ang hulog ko and manganganak na po ako this coming January 2014. Ask ko po if ever maghulog o magbayad ako ngayon ng mga kulang kong hulog, magagamit ko po ba agad ung philhealth maternity benefits ko kapag nanganak na ako? Thank you po!
Hi Jhoi, yes, update your member data as Individual Payor-Informal Sector and pay for Oct to Dec 2013; kung hindi na puedeng bayaran itong Oct-Dec 2013, pay for 1 year in advance (you must pay before your delivery).
Hi jhoi, pay Oct to Dec 2013 this December (late na kapag Jan 2014) as Individual Payor-Informal Sector para ma-eligible ka. If unable to pay this 2013, before you deliver in Jan 2014, pay 1 year in advance under the Informal Sector category so you will be eligible.

Hi cheeryl, update your member data to Informal Sector para qualified ka sa qualification na 3 monthly payments lang. Puede ka na sanang regular Individual Payor, kaya lang ang Oct 2013 to May 2014 ay 8 months lang, na dapat 9 months (for regular individual payor)
Hi po good day!! Inquire lng po ako, kung makakapagavail ba ako ng maternity benefits, due date ko po this coming march 2014.

Hi cheeryl, 200 pesos per month din, the same with other individual payors. Lahat ng member categories get the same benefits
helo po maam nors,
Indiviadually paying member po nakapagbayad ako last oct2013- march2014 hindi po ba ako belong sa Informal sector.. magkano na po ang babayaran ng monthly ng informal sector?
Hi cheeryl, ang Informal Sector ay isang klase ng Individual Payor, meaning under ng Individual Payor ang Informal Sector. Hindi ko lang sure kung kelangan pang nakasulat sa MDR yong Informal Sector, or puede nang Individual Payor lang. Pakitanong na lang din
Hi Good Day. Tanung ko lng sana if I am elgible of availing Philhealth benefits. Nag advance kc ako ng bayad for 6 months bale start ng Jan. 2014-June 2014. Pero due date ko na ng May 2014. Am I qualified if I pay 9months in advance this year?
Hi Neri, for individual payor/informal sector, 3 contributions na lang ang required, so you are eligible. Ask Philhealth when you get your MDR

Hi yhancee, register as Individual Payor/informal sector with your ID and pay for Mar and Apr 2014. Ask for cert of premium payment with OR nos. (latest 3 months) from bench.
Good AM!! hello!! lahat ba ng Philhealth refund dapat ibawas doon para sa doktors fee? kht mayron kaming Medicard health card na nagbayad na para sa doktor?
Hi an, usually ang nangyayari ay babayaran ng HMO ang total bill except yong portion na dapat babayaran ng Philhealth. For maternity, 5k ang hindi babayaran ng HMO, kasi ang Philhealth coverage for normal delivery is 5k
May nagsabi po na pag 12months ang contribution before the month of your due date mas malaki daw yung bawas sa gastusin sa hospital pagkapanganak?
Is this true?
April 2014 po ang due date ko.
And I only paid July-September, October-December, and January-March. A total of 9 months contribution.
Mas malaki po ba deduction sa hospital bills kung nagbayad din ako last year ng April-June?
Hi Louise, that’s not true. Pare-pareho ang coverage. Ang coverage for normal delivery at a hospital is 5k (3k for hospital and 2k for PF) and 6500 pag lying-in.
may friend po ako nagtatanong sken if kapag package yung panganganak niya sa hospital, pwede pa daw po bang gamitin yung philhealth niya?
H Darisite, tanungin niya yong OB niya kung magkano ang package kapag merong Philhealth. Ang maternity coverage ay 3k for hospital cost and 2k for PF.
hello po,ask ko lang po kasi dependent ako ng husband ko sa philhealth nya. expected date po ng panganganak ko is oct 2014.. Patigil tigil po ung payment sa philhealth nya.. pro from nov 2013 up to now updated na po paymnt nya,Pwd ko po kya maavail ung maternity benefit ng philhealth nya?
Hi Raffa, yes, basta nakasulat ka sa MDR niya as dependent. He needs to update his Philhealth data with your marriage cert and his ID, pag hindi ka pa nasulat as dependent. Make sure na mabayaran ang premiums until Sep. Kapag unemployed for 1 or 2 months, magbayad siya as Individual Payor for that 1 month or for those 2 months.
Hi po..tatanung q lng po kung makakapag avail p po b aq o makakaless p po aq pag nanganak aq,,kc po last 3 yrz q pa po nahulugan ung philhealth q.tpos nag stop n po aq sa hulog, then ngaun po po buntis aq 4 months,,magagamit q pa po b ung philhealth q,,or kelangan q ule mag fil out ng new form? Tnx

Hi ruby, pare-pareho lang ang coverage for employed and individual payor and other member types. Update your member data at Philhealth to Individual Payor-Informal Sector and then pay for April to August 2014 (200 pesos per month).

Hi carla, if you paid for Jan to Mar 2014, you can use your Philhealth this April. Kung OB mo ang magde-decide na CS ka, Indicated yan, kasi siya naman ang mag-i-indicate at mag-de-decide na ma-CS ka, at siya ang magsusulat ng code ng Indicated CS sa claim form.

Hi carla, kung gagamitin mo ang Philhealth ng husband mo, you can sign in his behalf. Bring your marriage cert (orig and copy). Puede ring mag-email siya ng authorization letter with a scan of his passport or ID, and then i-print mo.

Hi cinz, yes, you are eligible for maternity benefit.
helo..ask ko lng po panu ko ideclare as dependents ko si baby..im pregnant with my 1st baby at due ko po sa is july..salamat po..
Hi pr, you declare your baby as your dependent by showing your baby’s NSO or local-registrar birth cert to Philhealth. For the newborn care benefit or other newborn treatment, the hospital and Philhealth will allow you to use the birth certificate accomplished by the hospital registrar.
helo..ask ko lng po panu ideclare as dependent si baby? 1st delivery ko po eto..due ko this coming july..salamat po..
Hi pr, go to Philhealth with your baby’s NSO or local-registrar birth cert and update your MDR. For newborn care coverage, the birth certificate issued by the hospital is used.
just wanna ask, what if I’m advised by the doctor to have a hospital bed rest since I’m already 3.5cm dilated… can this be covered by Philhealth.. if so, how much?
Hi Margie, sorry, I think hospital bed rest is not covered. What will be covered is your delivery (5k pesos) and newborn care (1750) and prenatal if you file prenatal ORs.
hi po manganganak po ako this aug 2014 ang hulog ko po sa phil health ko ay from october 2013 to june 2014 pwede ko po bang magamit ang phil health ko sa LBC lang po ako naghuhulog wala na po kasi yung mga resibo ko anu po ang dapat kung gawin para maka kuha pa ng mga benefits sa phil health
Hi rose, go to Philhealth with your ID and Philhealth no. and ask for your MDR and cert of eligibility. Tell them you lost your premium receipts.
Hi po. Nag work ako from october2013 to january 2014. Then after nun, d na ko nakapag hulog sa philhealth. due date ko na sa october. Pwede ko bang bayaran yung 9months na required ng philhealth ng isang bayaran lang para magamit ko yung philhealth ko pag nanganak ako? Thanksss. =)
Hi Cheng, requirement now is only 3 contributions. Pay June to Sep 2014 so you can avail
Good day,Nors.I’m OFW and pregnant Possibly on november i get birth…plano ko umuwi sa Pinas for delivery.last April 02,2013 nagbayad ako sa philhealth under OEC at nakakuha lang ako ng Philhealth ID last month using OEC processing..Nasabi na required sa maternity ang 9months contribution before the time of delivery.Kung magbabayad ako ngayong June ng contribution,qualified ba ako for philhealth benefits for my delivery this november?
Hi rhose, yes, pay June to Nov or to Dec 2014, so you can qualify, whether your status is OFW or Individual Payor. If OFW, your delivery date should be within the validity dates in your premium receipt. If Individual Payor, pay at least 3 months of the 6 months prior to delivery.
Gud pm poh!im 4 month pregnant and start plang po ako mghulog ngayon.ask ko lng po kung ma avail philhealth benefits ..november po ako manganganak
Hi let, yes, pay Apr to Oct 2014. Deadline for paying for Apr to June is last day of June.
hi po..maam nors pregnant po ako ng almost 5 months ngayon po..ngwork po ko non last july2013 to dec2013 nastop po yung hulog nun january to march 2014.pero nkapagstart po ko ng voluntary contribution non april to june 2nd quarter 2014, sa november 1st week po due date ko maaavail ko po ba ung maternity benefits ko?godbless po
hi cristina, yes, pay also for July to Oct so you can avail. God bless too.
Hi Maam, Hope you could help me confirm whether I can avail philhealth maternity benefit or not..
I have been employed for 5yrs from 2007- 2012. I have never made use of philhealth services. I ended contract with the company july 2012, and automatically, my payments to philhealth also stopped.
Now I started paying my philhealth again APRIL of this year 2014….
So far, I have paid April and advanced my payments til September. I plan to continue paying. My Estimated due date is a week before or after Dec 27..
The question is, Since APRIL is exactly 9months from December including month of December in the counting, will I still qualify?? Im worried.. since it says on this site, 9mos prior the delivery month… other sites say 9mos from delivery month which may include the delivery month.
My questions are:
1) If I deliver in December will I qualify?
2) If I deliver on January 1 will I qualify?
3) I do not have a Philhealth ID but I have an MDR. Do I need to get an ID in order to avail?
I do hope to hear from you soon..
Thank you..
Hi Chrissa, you will qualify whether you deliver in Dec or Jan, as long as you continue paying. The prior-9-month rule has changed. The no. of months has been reduced to 3 months. The new eligibility rule for Individual Payors is payment of 3 of the 6 months prior to delivery. But some hospitals are not yet updated with the new rule; they require payment of 6 months prior.
hi good day po ask ko lang dependent po aq ng husband ko pero di pa naman nya nabago s philhealth n dependent nya aq dati kc my philhealth n ako nung nagwork pa ako nagamit ko na rin un nung ngkasakit anak ko pero nilagay ko ng dependent husband ko dun sa phlhealth ko tapos nagresign na aq hindi na aq nakakahulog ng plhealth since oct 2013 due date ko na sa nov 2014 s ngaun may work na husbangd ko since july2013 nakakaltasan na rn sya plhealth tanung ko po nagagamit ko po ba plhealth nya kasal nmn kami thanks
Hi jubilyn, yes, you can avail, but ask your husband to update his Philhealth data. He brings marriage cert, his ID and your letter requesting Philhealth to cancel your membership as you’re now unemployed and to register you as your husband’s dependent.
Hi po! My due date is on July 2013. As I have understood, and coverage ng contributions ko dapat ay from July 2013 to June 2014. Ngayon, kaka resign ko lang this January 2014. since then, nag voluntary payment ako at bayad naman ang Jan – June 2014 ko. So that is 6 months. Ang question ko po is, maccredit din po ba yung hulog ko from July 2013-December 2013 from my previous employer? Thank you for your answer.
Hi Lara, your Jan to June 2014 payment will be enough for your July 2014 delivery; you don’t need your 2013 contributions paid through your employer. The new requirement for Individual Payors is payment of 3 of the 6 months prior to confinement.
Hello po magtanong lang din po ako. Dependent po aq ng asawa ko. Necessary po ba tlga ung certification of contribution pra maka avail ng benefits? Kasi dun po sa iba kong nabasa ay MDR at CF1 lang kailangan.
Kung sakali po na di ko magamit ung philhealth ng asawa ko e pede po ba na bayadan ko ngaung June ang 2014 payment? Makaka avail po ba ako ng benefit if December ang due date ko.
Maraming salamat po
Hi Aiza, cert of premium payments is needed if the member is Employed. Your husband asks his HR for the cert. around November. If there’s a valid reason why you need to have your own Philhealth, yes, you can pay June to Nov to avail of the benefit. Actually, the requirement for Individual Payors is payment of 3 of the 6 months prior to delivery
Please email me back…dependent po ako ng asawa ko kaso onboard siya ngaun kaya wala siya para mag aus. Tumawag ako sa philhealth sb kelngn pdw request letter kapag kukuha ako ng mdr nya?and last payment kc nya oct.2013 tas nagbayad siya ulet ng 2quarter which is april,may,and june..dhl may 2 lanh siya ult sumampa kaya we decided n bayaran ndn ang 2nd quarter pr sure n magamit..ang tanong ko po kelangan prn b talagang pamirmahan ko ang claim form 1 sa opisina nila?at ano paba ang kelangan ko hingin sa opisina.thank you.
Hi irene, your can ask your husband to email you the request letter/authorization letter and a scan of his IDs. Bring your marriage cert. Request from your husband’s employer: 2 sheets of employer-signed Philhealth claim form 1 (for you and your baby) and cert of applicable premium payments with OR nos.

Hi melojane, if you deliver in July, yes, you can avail, because you have paid 3 months prior to delivery – Apr May June. If you pay also Oct to Dec and you deliver in June, you might be able to avail, but I’m not sure because Philhealth’s new rule and announcements related to this are not clear.

Hi ervin, no, the excess will go to the hospital and the doctor. Of the 19k coverage, 11400 is for hospital costs and 7600 is for PF (ob and anesthesiologist). If hospital costs exceed 11400, you pay for the balance. If 7600 is not enough for the doctors, you pay for the balance.

Hi Mam, i’m OFW. 1st time Mom and 16 weeks pregnant and will deliver in February 2014. From 2010 to date, i’ve paid PHILHEALTH. Do i need to pay by January because I’ll give birth in February.
Hi Dianne, if your Philhealth status is OFW, you must pay Sep 2014 to March 2015, so your due date will be covered by your premium receipt’s validity dates. If you change to Individual Payor, pay Sep to Jan 2015. Get your MDR from Philhealth.
Hi. May 2015 is my due. Can i pay Philhealth for 1 year so i can avail of discount? Let say from September 2014 – September 2015. thank you

Hi Lycia, pay July to Sep today or asap at Philhealth so you can get your MDR. Bring your leave form in case they ask. Get a cert of premium payment with OR nos. from your employer (to add to your July and Aug payment; you need 3 monthly payments prior to Sep). You can sign your claim form 1.
hi, employed until march 3 2014. paid as self individual april to june. but not sure if my agency paid jan to march. can i avail?
Hi sheila, pay july to september asap (before the end of sep) so you can use Philhealth in Oct or Nov or Dec.
Good pm. I gave birth at a lying in. I got 8k for my philhealth benefits. Since your article said the coverage for normal delivery at a lying in is 6500? I paid 2k after birth to comply with a new policy related to dependent/member. is there a policy like that? can i refund that? I’ve read about no billing policy.
Hi ivee, 6500 plus 1500 for newborn care is 8k. your lying-in must have submitted prenatal receipts. There’s no difference between members and dependents regarding benefits. Your lying-in should have been more honest — they should just have told you that their total bill is 10k, so 10k – 8k = 2k.
Hi I’m employed last Aug.2012 can I use my philhealth? If I’m going to pay within this week? My due date is on Nov. And how many quarter do I need to pay?
Hi joy, if your employer paid Aug Sep Oct, then you can use Philhealth. If you pay as individual payor, you can no longer pay Aug and Sep. Your employer can still pay Aug to Oct for you.
Hello, my due date is april 2015. i paid for the whole 2014. do i need to pay for 3 months in 2015? I lost my 2014 receipt; can I get a copy from Philhealth?

i forgot to pay my july-sept contribution can i still pay it my due date is this coming november. last payment was last june
Hi erika, sorry, you lack 1 month. You can no longer pay the 3rd quarter. The 6 months BEFORE Nov are May to Oct, and you’ve paid only May and June. Ask others too, or ask Philhealth.

hello. how do we use philhealth? dependent of my husband since 2012. can I use it for my cs this jan 17 2015. What does this mean — Level 2 to 4 hospital?
Hi Fatima, ask your husband to get his MDR from Philhealth. He brings your marriage certificate (orig and xerox) if he’s not sure you’re written in his Philhealth records as dependent. You should have your CS at a level 2 to 4 hospital so you can use Philhealth. Many hospitals are Level 2 to 4 hospitals — they have departments for OB, pediatrics, internal medicine, etc. You can ask the hospital their level.

Hi lyn, you can pay at Bayad Center, and this will be valid, but since your last payment was in 2013, it’s better if you pay at Philhealth so you can get your new MDR and Philhealth card.

Hi PinkMartini, if your member status is OFW and if you paid your premium BEFORE hospitalization, you can file with the hospital if not yet discharged, and if discharged already, you can file an appeal with Philhealth
Good pm. I’m OFW seabased, got off June 2014. I was not able to pay. My wife is pregnant. ang kabuwanan niya ay ngayon last s abril nagvoluntary contribution ako simula noong January 2015, I don’t know if I can go onboard this march. Can I avail of philhealth? pls reply. thanks
Hi Isabelo, I’m confused about your dates. Is your wife giving birth this February? If yes, and you paid only for Jan 2015 or for Jan to March, then you can’t avail yet in Feb. If she delivers in March, yes. Ask others too
goood am thanks for the reply she will be giving birth this coming april? I pay voluntary contribution from January to March minimum of 200 pesos per month then I would also continue my voluntary contribution until month of June until I can go onboard. salamat po.
Hi Isabelo, yes, you’re right, if you pay Jan to March asap, she can avail in April. For individual/voluntary payor, it’s 200 pesos per month.
Hi. May 2015 is my due date. I paid self employed for oct1-dec31, 2014 and adv premium jan1-sept30, 2015. Am i eligible for philhealth maternity benefit? Tnx
Hi Jenny, yes, you’re eligible.
where can I pay for mar.5 po ang due d8. I have not paid since 2010 up to now!
Hi marie, go to Philhealth asap with your ID and update your member data and then pay for Jan to March
hi po,gudam. is my wife’s child delivery covered by philhealth? or discounted? how much? we plan to go to las pinas perpetual. we have no idea how much to save for the delivery. thank you for the help. 🙂
Hi Ryan, sad to say, the Philhealth coverage is low. Only 5k pesos for normal delivery, 1750 for newborn care. If doctor-indicated CS, coverage is 19k. Your wife should ask her OB how much is the cost, as many hospitals now charge so much.
Good pm, can I avail of my philhealth benefit if my employer started paying august 2014 for my philheath benefit. expected date of delivery is March 2015. I’ll give birth at a lying in. If not, can I reimburse after delivery? Thank u so much.
Hi esther, yes, you can avail, assuming your employer has paid at least 3 months within Oct 2014 to Mar 2015. Submit docs for deduction before discharge. Philhealth no longer allows direct filing by members, except for certain few situations.
Gud pm po. My due is march 2015. I paid philheatlh from oct-dec 2014 and made advance payment for the whole year of 2015. Can I avail? My member category is INFORMAL SECTOR. thanks
Hi glendaly, yes you can avail anytime within this March to Feb 2016.
hi can i ask my due date is july 2015 and i have contribution on aug-dec 2014 when i was still working. dec 5 my contract was ended. so about 5 months I had contributions. Can I avail of maternity benefit or should I pay as voluntary?
Hi resalyn, update your data at Philhealth with your ID and pay March to June so you can avail in July.
hi, can i still avail for philhealth maternity benefits. I just found out my company did not pay for my philhealth for last year. due this May 2015. Paid jan-march 2015 and will pay the next 2nd quarter april-june soonest. can i still apply for benefit? thanks
Hi carol, yes, you can avail. Yes, pay also for Apr to June this Mar or Apr
hi I’m individual payor. I’ll give birth march 31 2015. I paid philhealth for january feruary and march, amount is 600. but the lying in told me I need receipt for october november december 2014. I did not pay those months. Can I pay those months?
Hi mary grace, you can no longer pay for Oct to Dec 2014, but the policy has changed. Your Jan to Mar 2015 payment is enough for your March delivery. Tell them politely about the new policy, or find another lying-in that knows the new policy.
Hi, what can I do because our agency have not remitted to philhealth. I started as their employee may14,2013 until march 5,2015. I resigned. I’ll give birth this april tru cs delivery. I came to know just last jan 2015 that my Philhealth was never paid. They said they’re processing and posting will be 1month after, and now it’s already March. I want to continue paying as volunteer member but I was told to present a certification of employment with remittance and effectivity and separation from the company but they refused to give me papers. Can I ask for request letter from philhealth that I need coe? Because my agency refuse to give me any paper.
Hi Andre Mae, do you have a resignation letter addressed to your company? If your company signed that, get a copy, and I think you can use that to register as Individual Payor with Philhealth, and pay for Jan to March so you can avail in April. Another option, if you are married, ask your husband to register asap, and pay for Jan to Mar or Jan to June, and register you as his dependent. He brings your marriage certificate and your letter asking Philhealth to cancel your Philhealth membership as you are already unemployed and to register you as your husband’s dependent.
hi, Im employed from june-nov2014 then I start paying my contribution as voluntary jan-june2015 and my due date is on april.Can I avail maternity benefit?

Hi Sonny, okay lang naman na huminto siya from working basta mag-continue siya to pay her Philhealth premium as Voluntary member. Pay asap as Voluntary for Jan to March 2018. Use the same Philhealth number that she used in her employment. Mag-request siya ng certification of premium payments sa kanyang former employer para mai-present sa hospital, dagdag doon sa receipt niya for her Voluntary payment.
