Ang gawin mo lang is to pay your Philhealth contributions for one year (2,400 pesos).
Pero bago ka magbayad, punta ka muna sa lying-in clinic or hospital where you will give birth and ask if you can avail of the Women About to Give Birth program. Ito ay para sure na alam nila itong program at para maka-avail ka ng Philhealth.

 

Pre-natal checkups

Required din na magpa-prenatal check-up ka sa clinic o hospital kung saan ka manganganak at kung saan mo gagamitin ang Women About to Give Birth program.

At least 4 prenatal checkups nga yong nakasulat sa Philhealth Circular, pero itong count na ito ay flexible naman, depende sa kung ilang buwan nang pregnant ang member.

One Time Only

Itong program na ito ay isang beses mo lang magamit. Kapag nagamit mo na, hindi mo na uli puedeng magamit sa susunod mong panganganak.
Ang kelangan ay sundin mo na yong mga payment deadlines ng Philhealth.

 

Maglagay ka ng reminder sa wallet mo o sa bahay mo na kelangan mong magbayad ng Philhealth sa month o quarter after your one-year payment. Ito ay para lagi kang eligible for Philhealth benefit coverage.

For monthly payments (200 pesos per month):

Ang deadline is the last day of the month.

For quartertly payments (600 pesos per month):

Ang deadline is the last day of the quarter.

Make sure na kapag Saturday, Sunday o holiday ang last day of the month, makakapunta ka pa sa open na payment center katulad ng Bayad Center or SM Business Center.

Nine Monthly Payments na ang Requirement for Philhealth eligibility

Starting October 1, nine monthly payments na ang required para maka-avail ng Philhealth maternity coverage or other Philhealth benefits.
