DOH: PhilHealth to cover those who experience COVID19 vaccine side effects

MANILA—The Department of Health assured that state health insurance firm Philippine Health Insurance Corp. will shoulder medical expenses of patients who experience adverse effects after they receive the coronavirus disease vaccine.

"Actually, they are going to use the existing case rates. Itong existing case rates kasi natin kapag, halimbawa, may mga adverse reactions tapos kailangan ma-ospital ng isang tao, papasok iyon doon and they are covered and merong existing funds ang PhilHealth for 2021 for these case rates na ito, so meron po,” Vergeire said in a public press briefing.
