Health Insurance Corporation (PHIC). The city government agreed to be the pilot area for the newly launched Social Health Insurance, a Medicare package called Philhealth Plus. Philhealth Plus is an expanded health insurance package that provides uniform in-patient as well as out-patient benefits, such as free consultation, medicines and laboratory examination in all Philhealthaccredited centers. Using this package, the Pasay City government sought to enroll at least 15,000 indigent households in the Philhealth Plus program, ensure 100% registration by business establishments, a 20% increase in the individually paying program (IPP) of Philhealth, install monitoring systems in health centers, and have a permanent Philhealth office in City Hall by 2004. Aside from tapping the funds available through the Philhealth Plus program, the city government also ensured that funding for the health program continued. The capitalization fund was turned into a trust fund, the interest of which was used to upgrade facilities and services and procure additional laboratory supplies and medicines. At least 20% of the interest earnings were earmarked for administrative costs in the form of incentives divided among the health personnel directly involved in the program. The barangays became the active partners in implementing the program—from the identification of the indigent families for enrollment with the Philhealth Plus program, to instilling health, environmental and cleanliness awareness. At the same time, the private sector was also involved in continuous advocacy, networking and linkaging. To provide leadership in implementing the programs, teams were established to manage and supervise the health services being provided. The teams are being trained continuously. As part of the standardization process, monitoring mechanisms are now in place to check on the progress and to immediately identify and address gaps in the programs being implemented. The Numbers Tell the Story The indigent families which were the targeted beneficiaries of the program have been identified, issued their health passports and are now availing themselves of services being offered both at local health centers and accredited hospitals. In 2002, at least 9,319 indigent families were already enrolled in the Philhealth Plus program, 5,042 of 50 Kaban Galing
which benefit from the out-patient package. Some availed themselves of the in-patient package and were confined in Philhealth-accredited hospitals, including the Philippine General Hospital (PGH). The efforts to upgrade the health centers and have them Sentrong Sigla-certified, as well as the efforts to upgrade the capacity and provide incentives for its health personnel, have paid off. Of the 12 health centers, 11 have been Sentrong Sigla-certified, 7 have won awards with corresponding cash prizes to be used for further improvement of the health centers. The health centers are now equipped to provide laboratory services. The skills and competencies of the health personnel are continuously being improved through a capability building program being implemented in partnership with the Department of Health. The strategy to seek partners has also been rewarded in terms of additional funding opportunities. In fact, the partnership with PGH became part of a bigger project funded by the Italian government and which will help improve further the 11 health centers. Since Pasay City is a pilot area for the partnership with Philhealth, the initiative has been well documented, and therefore replication will be easy. With Philhealth planning to seek similar partnerships, others may soon also enjoy the same success achieved by Pasay City. A Showcase for Philhealth 51
