In line with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s directive of digitalization toward better services, the public can now digitally avail of digital health insurance services regardless of their location in the world.
This comes after the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) announced the integration of the ePhilHealth Platform in the eGovPH app, enabling the general public to digitally access and avail of various digital health insurance services.
“With the integration in the eGovPH app, PhilHealth members can now effortlessly access their membership profile, contribution history, declared beneficiaries as well as benefit availment history,” PhilHealth said in a statement.
According to the agency, members can also view the list and register in the Konsulta provider they have chosen.
PhilHealth President and chief executive officer Emmanuel R. Ledesma Jr. thanked the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) for this “transformative endeavor” in realizing the President’s vision for digitalization.
“This directive has been our guiding light, compelling us to reimagine and revolutionize the way PhilHealth will serve the Filipino nation. Gone are the days of tedious repetition of administrative paperwork, a mere few clicks will give our members the capacity to avail of this service with unparalleled ease,” Ledesma said.
Additionally, PhilHealth said that to be able to access information through the eGovPH app, PhilHealth members are advised to download the eGovPH app, then sign-up and verify their account. Verified accounts can login anytime using their registered mobile number.
Likewise, DICT Secretary Ivan John E. Uy said that such transformative enhancement will “revolutionize and elevate the user experience,” in compliance with the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act.
