Senator Nancy Binay called out the Philippine Health Insurance Corp. for misleading its members about the availability of its “home treatment” package for COVID-positive patients.

Senator Nancy Binay on Friday, January 14 called out the Philippine Health Insurance Corp. for misleading its members about the availability of its “home treatment” package for COVID-positive patients.

“Parang paulit-ulit na lang itong lokohan . Kawawa na naman ang mga kababayan nating umasa na may ganitong tulong, na hindi naman pala talaga nila mapapakinabangan ‘Wag na sanang paasahin ang mga tao sa wala . May sakit na nga, pakiramdam mo pa eh parang na-scam . Halos one year na itong pino-promote, pero ampaw pala ,“ she pointed out.

CHIBP is supposed to be available to patients who passed both clinical and social criteria in surge areas declared by the Inter-Agency Task Force . The senator said she discovered the gaps in the CHIBP’s implementation this week upon exploring the PhilHealth’s website to find out how members could avail of the package.
