But Gordon, CEO and president of the PRC, said the state health insurance agency should pay the remaining balance within three days to enable the humanitarian organization to replenish its cash reserve so it can buy additional supplies for their COVID-19 testing.“Kasi sabi nila, babayaran, babayaran. In the meantime, nagpapadala ng mga test, walang tigil ang pasok ,” Gordon said in an interview over Radio DZBB.
“Papayagan namin kung P930 million ang babayaran nila, tapos within three days, bayaran ang balance at mula ngayon pairalin ang kontrata. ,” the senator pointed out. But the PRC stopped conducting the tests last Oct. 15 after PhilHealth failed to settle its debts. Gordon said PRC will suspend the COVID-19 tests accredited under PhilHealth until such time the state health insurance agency is able to fully settle the unpaid balance.
At the same time, Gordon said he is thankful that President Duterte has seen the PRC’s problem and recommended that PhilHealth pay the PRC.“Dapat magbayad sila, legal ang contract. Sinabi ng DOJ . Lahat ng hiningi nilang papel, binigay namin. ,” he reiterated.
