While recognizing that there are indeed anomalous and fraudulent claims, Roque said the PhilHealth should investigate the claims instead of threatening to “blacklist” hospitals.

“Ang gobyerno sa pamamagitan ng PhilHealth ang siyang bibili ng lahat ng medical goods and services kaya itong banta nila [private hospitals] na sila ay titigil na magbigay serbisyo at magdi-disengage sa PhilHealth, that has the potential of derailing the universal health care law,” he said in a briefing.

“Ang panawagan ko sa PhilHealth, magbayad kayo ng mga dapat bayaran. Totoo, maraming ma-anomalyang mga claims. Ang dapat gawin diyan, litisin ang magsusumite ng mga fictitious claims at mga ma-anomalyang claims, ‘wag natin gamitin ‘yung blacklisting o ‘yung threat of blacklisting dahil hindi kakayanin ma-implement ang universal health care law na pang-gobyernong hospital lamang ang magbibigay ng serbisyo lalung lalo na sa panahon ng pandemya,” he added.

“Ang panawagan ko kay Atty. Gierran, bakit iisa pa lang ang natatanggal sa PhilHealth dahil sa mga anomalya, nagresign pa? Ang ibig mo bang sabihin lahat ng mga anomalya sa nakalipas, eh narariyan pa rin lahat ng tao na responsable diyan at ni isang tao sa PhilHealth hindi dapat sibakin? Hindi kapani-paniwala ‘yan,” he said.

PhilHealth denies claims it has P86-B debt to hospitalsThe Philippine Health Insurance Corp (PhilHealth) on Monday denied that it owed P86 billion to hospitals since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, saying its unpaid claims only amounted to P12.9 billion. Sinungaling yung hosps? Philhealth, Pag-ibig, ECC, GSIS and SSS should be run by professional fund managers like those in private financial institutions such as insurance, mutual fund, etc. The financially uninitiated at their helm just proved to be a havoc to them. Anything under Duque reeks of corruption.
