Senator Loren Legarda filed Senate Bill 2964, proposing a rewards system for long-time contributors to the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth).
The bill seeks to establish the “PhilHealth Member Recognition Program” (PMRP), which will implement a points-based rewards system.
Under the program, members can redeem points for additional healthcare services, payment of out-of-pocket costs, preventive care incentives, and even non-medical health-related needs.
A PMRP Benefit Fund will be created to finance these rewards. The fund will be supported by regular contributions, reserve funds, grants, donations, government allocations, and investment earnings.
Legarda emphasized that the program is designed to address gaps in the current system by empowering members to choose benefits tailored to their needs. Ram Superable
