The corruption in PhilHealth is also happening in the regional level where fraudulent claims exist, said Presidential Anti-Corruption Commissioner Greco Belgica. READ:

Watch more in iWant or TFC.tv MANILA - President Rodrigo Duterte's anti-corruption commission said Thursday it has "airtight" cases against 13 of the 36 PhilHealth officials linked to fraud and might file criminal complaints against them next week before the Office of the Ombudsman.

The PACC has submitted its partial probe report to the Office of the President and is organizing an investigation team per region as it is "where the money flows," he added. "The bulk of the transactions of PhilHealth happens in the regional level. If you remember, the entire board was fired by the President last August and yet corruption still persisted in PhilHealth...That’s really where the fraud is happening."

"PhilHealth has not been able to file any case against any of the employees to the Ombudsman when they have cases filed against them. There are cases filed by the region and then whitewashed by the national office. That’s another way that corruption persists at PhilHealth," he said.
