00:00Good news to the members of PhilHealth because the 45-day hospitalization limit has been lifted.

00:06Joshua Garcia has the details.

00:11We will add that in 2025, the services that PhilHealth will provide will be more.

00:19The payment that will be given to the insurance claim will be bigger.

00:25This is the firm promise that President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. made to the Filipinos before the end of 2024.

00:33The President insisted that Filipinos can expect more services from PhilHealth.

00:38And just a few months ago, that promise of President Marcos Jr. was fulfilled.

00:44Aside from the increased benefit packages for various medical conditions,

00:48another important step was taken by the agency.

00:51This is the lifting of their 45-day benefit limit.

00:54Under this rule, the maximum hospital confinement of their members will only reach 45 days within a year.

01:02But now, the worries of our fellow Filipinos will be lessened

01:06because the board approved the update to the so-called police.

01:10PhilHealth has lifted the 45-day benefit limit

01:14so that the services of the agency will remain unhindered.

01:19According to PhilHealth, many services require more than 45 days of coverage,

01:26just like hemodialysis.

01:29According to PhilHealth's Acting President and CEO, Dr. Edwin Mercado,

01:33the reform to the so-called cost containment strategy, which he called outdated, will be implemented soon.

01:39Mercado insists that no one will know or be able to schedule our medical needs.

01:45Many services also require more than 45 days of coverage.

01:49In addition, PhilHealth wants the Filipinos who have chronic conditions

01:55and need long hospitalization to continue receiving health services

02:00that do not need to worry about their financial capacity.

02:04The agency also reminds that the availability of benefits still needs to go through the right process

02:10and meets the medical needs and treatment plan of the patient.

02:15It will also monitor the compliance of health facilities for clinical standards and reimbursement rules.
