‘’PhilHealth owes PRC P1.1 billion already. No payment as yet in spite of their numerous announcements that they will pay,’’ Gordon said in a statement released Tuesday morning.
‘’We thank Secretary Locsin of the DFA for helping us with the permits from the Chinese government, but due to PhilHealth’s non-payment, we do not have the money to pay for the test kits and other equipment worth $6 million to $8 million dollars just for this particular shipment,’’ he said.Gordon said that at the moment, the PRC is ‘’almost out of test kits. To replenish, we need to be paid.’’
‘’We have been operating provincial laboratories as requested by the implementing agency of the IATF in Batangas , Clark , Cebu, Negros, Zamboanga, and CDO. So far, we have lost money in all of them but we need to test there otherwise COVID-19 might go everywhere. Almost completed labs are in Passi for Panay island, and Isabela,’’ he said.‘’First, they say they want to be sure the contract is OK. They needed DBM . The President told them to pay.
