Universal health care program bared

MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Health (DoH) is gearing towards the development of universal health care program which will provide universal PhilHealth coverage to all Filipinos and in the process, reduce their financial risks.

This was bared Friday by Vice President Jejomar C. Binay during the 62nd Annual Convention of the International College of Surgeons in Manila.

Binay said that the program, dubbed "Kalusugan sa Pangkalahatan," will "benefit people from all economic strata, but the poor, most especially, shall find better lives because of it.”

“To pursue this track, the DoH shall tap private public partnerships to encourage more people to become part of PhilHealth, and to assist PhilHealth in improving its services for its members. Under this approach, these objectives can be accomplished at no added cost to the corporation,” he added.

The Vice President said that the DoH and local chief executives met last month to assess the progress of health reforms toward "Kalusugan sa Pangkalahatan."

He said that similar to the Pabahay Caravan of the housing sector, the DoH also has its own Monitoring and Evaluation for Equity and Effectiveness (ME3) conference which identifies and measures health reforms implemented by the LGUs.

“Within this program, LGUs are assessed through their efforts in implementing health reforms. Additionally, through the ME3 program, a venue is provided for the transparency and accountability of data and progress to various stakeholders,” Binay said.
