National Medicine Bank: Lee’s Vision for Better Healthcare Access
National Medicine Bank: Lee’s Vision for Better Healthcare Access Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee is advocating for the creation of a National Medicine Bank through House Bill No. 11082 to bridge the gap in healthcare access for marginalized Filipinos. This measure aims to collect and store donated pharmaceuticals and distribute them to community health centers and government hospitals nationwide. Lee expressed frustration over persistent supply chain issues during the deliberations of the 2025 DOH Budget. “Bilyon-bilyong piso ang pondo para sa gamot, pero bakit laging problema ang kawalan ng gamot sa mga public hospitals?” he questioned, highlighting the need for systemic reform. The Medicine Bank would serve as a centralized hub for prescription and over-the-counter drugs, reducing the financial strain on Filipinos who often have to travel long distances or pay exorbitant prices for essential medicines. “Gusto natin na mabawasan ang pangamba ng bawat Pilipino. Ang gamot at pagpapagamot, dapat sagot na ng gobyerno,” Lee asserted. This initiative aligns with Lee’s ongoing health advocacy, complementing his success in securing increased PhilHealth benefits and other healthcare reforms for the Filipino people. #HealthcareForAll #GamotMoSagotKo #WiseAdvocacy Healthcare Access and Equity Previous Post Latest Posts 23 Nov 2024 Lee’s Free Vaccination Bill for Seniors Aligns with Universal Health Care Goals 22 Nov 2024 “Gamot Mo, Sagot Ko!”: Lee Pushes Free Vaccines for Senior Citizens 21 Nov 2024 Lee Pushes for Free Vaccines for All Senior Citizens Categories Healthcare Policy Public Health Initiatives Healthcare Ethics and Legal Issues Healthcare Access and Equity Spread the News
Lee Proposes Creation of National Medicine Bank to Aid Vulnerable Filipinos
Lee Proposes Creation of National Medicine Bank to Aid Vulnerable Filipinos Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee has filed House Bill No. 11082, also known as the “Medicine Bank Act,” to establish a National Medicine Bank aimed at providing vulnerable sectors with access to essential medicines and healthcare supplies. This proposed measure seeks to efficiently collect and distribute donated pharmaceuticals to community health centers and government facilities. Lee emphasized the importance of this initiative while speaking at the 50th Anniversary of the Integrated Philippine Association of Optometrists Inc. (IPAO). “Kapag naisabatas ito, hindi na magiging pahirapan para sa ating mga kababayan ang access sa gamot, lalo na sa panahon ng kalamidad,” Lee said. Under the proposed measure, the Department of Health (DOH) will oversee the inventory and proper storage of donated items, ensuring these resources are utilized effectively and waste is minimized. “This is about responsible management of excess medical resources, turning waste into life-saving aid for those who need it most,” Lee added. The solon’s proposal is part of his broader advocacy for accessible healthcare, addressing long-standing issues in public hospital supply chains that have left many Filipinos struggling to afford or access medication. #MedicineBankPH #HealthForAll #WiseLeadership Healthcare Policy Previous Post Latest Posts 23 Nov 2024 Lee’s Free Vaccination Bill for Seniors Aligns with Universal Health Care Goals 22 Nov 2024 “Gamot Mo, Sagot Ko!”: Lee Pushes Free Vaccines for Senior Citizens 21 Nov 2024 Lee Pushes for Free Vaccines for All Senior Citizens Categories Healthcare Policy Public Health Initiatives Healthcare Ethics and Legal Issues Healthcare Access and Equity Spread the News
Lee Slams DOH For Delays in Delivering Health Benefits to Filipinos
Lee Slams DOH For Delays in Delivering Health Benefits to Filipinos “Bawat araw ng delay ay maraming Pilipino ang naghihirap, nalulubog sa utang, o namamatay dahil sa kakulangan ng serbisyong pangkalusugan.” This was the strong statement from Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee as he held the Department of Health (DOH) and PhilHealth accountable for their commitments to improve healthcare access for Filipinos. Lee criticized the agencies for failing to meet deadlines and implement promised reforms under the Universal Healthcare (UHC) Law. Lee pointed out the DOH’s delay in submitting a comprehensive plan to reduce out-of-pocket healthcare costs, a promise Health Secretary Ted Herbosa made during budget deliberations. “If the Secretary cannot fulfill these commitments, he should step down. Public service is about delivering results, not empty promises,” Lee said. In addition to his criticism, Lee highlighted the looming deadlines for other commitments, such as 50% PhilHealth benefit increases, 80% coverage for cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and procedures for heart diseases, and expanded diagnostic services by year-end. He reminded the agencies that billions of pesos allocated for healthcare must be used efficiently to provide life-saving benefits to Filipinos. The Bicolano lawmaker’s advocacy for better healthcare services has yielded results, including significant increases in PhilHealth coverage for hemodialysis and breast cancer treatment and full coverage for dialysis. “This fight is for every Filipino family who dreams of a day when healthcare is a right, not a privilege,” Lee declared. #UniversalHealthCare #HealthIsARight #WiseLeadership Healthcare Policy Previous Post Latest Posts 15 Nov 2024 Lee Criticizes DOH for Failing to Deliver Promised Healthcare Plan 14 Nov 2024 Lee Wants Free Vaccines For All Senior Citizens 14 Nov 2024 Lee Lauds Supreme Court’s TRO, Renews Call for Enhanced UHC Benefits Categories Healthcare Policy Public Health Initiatives Healthcare Ethics and Legal Issues Healthcare Access and Equity Spread the News
Lee Files Measure To Simplify Processes In Availing Gov’t Services, Hasten Emergency Response
Lee Files Measure To Simplify Processes In Availing Gov’t Services, Hasten Emergency Response “Tulungan ang taumbayan, hindi pahirapan!” This was the statement of Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee as he filed House Resolution No. 2051 in calling government agencies to streamline, simplify, and liberalize requirements and processes in government services which continue to burden Filipinos. This comes amid the onslaught of natural calamities in the country which requires speedy delivery of services to afflicted Filipinos. “Hindi makatarungan na kung nasalanta ka na nga at nasira ang lahat ng iyong kabuhayan at ari-arian, kilo-kilometro pa ang requirements o kaya naman ay parang kailangan pang magmakaawa o lumuhod sa mga nasa katungkulan para lang makahingi ng tulong,” he said. The Bicolano lawmaker’s measure underscores the existence of Republic Act (RA) No. 9485 or the “Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007” and RA 11032 or the “Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018” which should be effectively implemented. “Even with the enactment of these laws and their related regulations, persistent issues and challenges such as excessive paperwork, long hours of application process, burdensome submission of unnecessary requirements, and insufficient technological integration continue to obstruct efficient delivery of services of various government programs and services,” Lee remarked. The solon from Bicol further highlighted that tedious processes could cultivate corruption in agencies, saying “there’s an urgent need for decisive and radical action to effectively simplify and liberalize government processes, and weed out red tape and corruption in agencies.” As a staunch health advocate, Lee stressed that the same tedious processes continue to hound sick Filipinos who lack access to healthcare services. “Kapag nagkakasakit ang marami nating kababayan, dahil sa mahal ng gastusin at pahirapan bago makatanggap ng medical assistance, pinipili na lang nilang maratay sa bahay kaya mas lumalala ang karamdaman o pinipili na lang na hintayin ang oras nila. Hindi ito deserve ng Pilipino. Dapat ang gamot at pagpapagamot ng Pilipino, sagot ng gobyerno! Gamot Mo, Sagot Ko!” Lee said. “Ang gobyerno, hindi dapat pabigat sa taumbayan. Ang serbisyo, dapat ora-mismo, hindi nakakaperwisyo pa sa Pilipino. Ang pera ng gobyerno ay pera ng taumbayan kaya walang rason na di maibigay sa Pilipino ang nararapat na serbisyo,” he added. It can be recalled that during the last House Plenary Debates on the DOH 2025 Budget on September 25, Lee secured commitments from the Department of Health (DOH) and Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) to lower the out-of-pocket medical expenses of Filipinos and expand health benefits. Among the commitments Lee secured include free Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, Computed Tomography (CT) scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and other diagnostic tests as part of outpatient services and at least 80% coverage for cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and procedures for heart diseases not later than December 31, 2024, free optometric services and free eye care, and another 50% increase in PhilHealth benefits this November. Lee also successfully fought for the 30% increase in PhilHealth benefits which was implemented last February 14. These include increasing the PhilHealth benefit package for hemodialysis from P2,600 to P6,350 per session and from 90 sessions per year to 156 sessions annually, as well as the increase in breast cancer treatment coverage from P100,000 to P1.4M.

Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee Calls for Expanded PhilHealth Benefits Amid Supreme Court TRO
Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee Calls for Expanded PhilHealth Benefits Amid Supreme Court TRO Following a Supreme Court decision to halt PhilHealth’s fund transfers, Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee is pushing for immediate improvements in PhilHealth’s services. Lee has argued that the agency’s funds should remain focused on expanding health benefits for Filipinos rather than diverted to non-health projects. “Naninindigan po tayo na ang pondo para sa kalusugan ay hindi dapat gamitin sa mga programang hindi kasinghalaga ng kalusugan ng mga Pilipino,” he stated. The Department of Finance’s recent order resulted in P60 billion being moved from PhilHealth to the Treasury earlier this year, triggering widespread concern. Lee argues that the excess funds from PhilHealth could be better used to enhance the agency’s services, reduce membership contributions for lower-income earners, or provide immediate healthcare benefits. His advocacy is based on a core principle: health funds should serve health needs first. Lee suggested that if the government truly requires funds, they should seek them from other GOCCs that have surplus funds and are not tasked with delivering essential social services. “Imbes na sa PhilHealth bumawas ng pondo, kunin na lang sa iba pang GOCCs na may excess funds,” he said, noting that healthcare must be the priority. His commitment includes ensuring that PhilHealth benefits are strengthened and expanded as soon as possible. These funds, he argued, could jumpstart several health reforms Lee secured in recent legislative debates. By December 2024, he envisions expanded access to diagnostics, cancer treatments, and other critical services. His goal is clear: use PhilHealth’s resources to support Filipinos facing serious health challenges rather than meet broader fiscal needs. #HealthFirst #PhilHealthFunds #WiseLeadership #HealthAdvocate #CongressionalWatch Healthcare Policy Previous Post Latest Posts 09 Nov 2024 Cong.

Lee Blasts DOH For Failure To Submit Comprehensive Plan To Lower Out-Of-Pocket Medical Costs
Lee Blasts DOH For Failure To Submit Comprehensive Plan To Lower Out-Of-Pocket Medical Costs Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee slammed the Department of Health (DOH) for being unable to provide a detailed and comprehensive plan to lower out-of-pocket expenses of Filipinos on healthcare which Secretary Ted Herbosa committed to submit by October 31, 2024 during the House deliberations of the 2025 National Budget. The said plan must include a comprehensive report on medicines and vaccines, ensuring availability of drugs and medicines in the DOH retained and specialty hospital starting fourth quarter of this year, and establishment of a monitoring system to ensure compliance and provide quarterly reports to the House Committee on Health and Committee on Appropriations. Further, Lee asked for a definite timeline in acquiring medical equipment for public hospitals. “Bilang Kalihim ng Kalusugan at Tagapangulo ng Board of Directors at Benefits Committee ng PhilHealth, hindi pwedeng hanggang sa pangako lang ang mga benepisyong pangkalusugan na opisyal naming nilagdaan at inilahad ko sa Kongreso,” said Lee referring to the health commitments signed by Herbosa and PhilHealth President and Chief Executive Officer Emmanuel Ledesma Jr. “Tulad ng nauna ko nang sinabi, kung walang balak si Sec. Herbosa na tuparin ito, dapat magbitiw na siya sa puwesto. Hindi tayo titigil sa paniningil at pagpapanagot kung mauuwi ito sa pagpapaasa na naman sa milyon-milyong Pilipino sa mga serbisyong deserve at karapatan nilang makuha sa ilalim ng Universal Health Care Law,” the solon added. Lee wrote letters addressed to the Health Secretary reminding the agency of the said commitments, primarily the plan to reduce Filipino spending on hospitalization costs and health services. Nonetheless, as of writing, the said plan has not been submitted by DOH without any explanation on the delay. “Kailangan ng komprehensibong plano na pundasyon ng epektibong pagpapatupad ng hinihingi nating mga dagdag na mga benepisyo. Hindi pwedeng daanin na naman tayo sa pandidribble at tingi-tinging mga serbisyo,” he said. Lee further stated the other commitments nearing its deadline such as 50% across-the-board PhilHealth benefit increases and free pediatrics and adult prescription glasses that must be implemented this November. “Nakita na natin ang pag-usad sa dapat na implementasyon ng libreng check-up sa mata at pagpapagawa ng salamin ng PhilHealth. Naghihintay tayo para sa napagkasunduang 50% na dagdag na mga benepisyo na dapat na ring ipatupad ng DOH at PhilHealth ngayong buwan,” the solon from Bicol said. Apart from the mentioned commitments, it can be recalled that during the last House Plenary Debates on the DOH 2025 Budget on September 25, Lee secured other commitments such as free Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, Computed Tomography (CT) scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and other diagnostic tests as part of outpatient services, and at least 80% coverage for cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and procedures for heart diseases not later than December 31, 2024.

These include increasing the PhilHealth benefit package for hemodialysis from P2,600 to P6,350 per session and from 90 sessions per year to 156 sessions annually, as well as the increase in breast cancer treatment coverage from P100,000 to P1.4M. “Sa laban para sa kalusugan ng mga Pilipino, hindi pwede ang mga serbisyong huwad at pagpapanggap lang. Dahil habang pinatatagal at ipinagkakait ang mga dagdag na mga benepisyong pangkalusugan, maraming Pilipino ang namamatay at lumalala ang sakit, na nagpapaguho sa mga pangarap ng pamilya at lalong nagpapalubog sa ating mga kababayan sa kahirapan,” Lee said. “Laban natin itong lahat para makamit ang pangarap at hangarin ng mga Pilipino na maging libre na ang gamot at pagpapagamot. Ibigay na ang kayang ibigay! Bilyon-bilyong pondo para sa kalusugan, gamitin sa kalusugan!” he added.

Cong. Manoy Wilbert Lee’s Push for Free Optometric Services to Benefit 40M Filipinos
Cong. Manoy Wilbert Lee’s Push for Free Optometric Services to Benefit 40M Filipinos Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee celebrated a breakthrough in healthcare accessibility as PhilHealth prepares to roll out free prescription glasses and optometric services in November. This initiative fulfills Lee’s commitment to securing essential health benefits for Filipinos, especially those unable to afford eye care. IPAO President Dr. John Nakpil noted that Lee’s efforts, along with DOH and PhilHealth’s support, led to the formation of a technical working group to create implementation guidelines for these benefits. The Bicolano lawmaker underscored the profound impact of this change, which promises a brighter future for millions. “Magbibigay liwanag ito hindi lang sa paningin, kundi pati na sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay,” he remarked, recognizing that good vision contributes to productivity and quality of life. Lee has consistently advocated for greater healthcare accessibility, with optometric services forming a crucial part of his broader vision for Universal Health Care. Additional services included in Lee’s health advocacy package with DOH and PhilHealth are free diagnostic tests such as MRI, CT, and PET scans by December 2024, along with 80% coverage for cancer treatments. “Patuloy po nating bantayan ang pagtupad ng DOH at PhilHealth sa mga ipinangako nilang serbisyong pangkalusugan,” Lee stated, vowing to ensure these commitments are fulfilled for the betterment of all Filipinos. #VisionCarePH #WilbertLeeForHealth #HealthcareAccessibility #AGRIForThePeople Healthcare Access and Equity Previous PostNext Post Latest Posts 08 Nov 2024 Cong.

Free Prescription Glasses, Optometric Services Lee Fought For To Benefit Millions Of Filipinos
Free Prescription Glasses, Optometric Services Lee Fought For To Benefit Millions Of Filipinos Cong. Manoy Wilbert “Wise” Lee who has been fighting for free optometric services and free eyeglasses since early this year, welcomed the inclusion of said services in PhilHealth benefit packages starting this November as announced by the state health insurer. Free optometric services and prescription glasses are among the health commitments secured by Lee and signed by Department of Health (DOH) Secretary Ted Herbosa and PhilHealth President and Chief Executive Officer Emmanuel Ledesma Jr. before the approval of the DOH budget last September 25, 2024 at the House of Representatives. “This is long overdue. Masaya po tayong nalalapit na ang katuparan nito kung saan mahigit 40 milyong Pilipino ang makikinabang, mula bata hanggang sa ating mga senior citizens,” said Lee who is now in Bicol leading the relief operations for fellow Bicolanos who were heavily affected by the onslaught of severe tropical storm Kristine. The lawmaker is also distributing relief goods in other parts of the country affected by the calamity. “Malaking tulong ito lalo na sa mahihirap nating kababayan na tinitiis na lang ang malabong paningin o lumalala ang problema sa mata hanggang mabulag dahil walang pera para magpacheck-up at magpagawa ng salamin,” he added. The said pronouncement from the PhilHealth complies with the deadline that Lee set in the commitment letter to cover pediatrics and adult prescription glasses not later than November 30, 2024. Integrated Philippine Association of Optometrists (IPAO) President Dr. John Nakpil said that the commitment of the DOH and PhilHealth spearheaded by Lee led to the creation of a technical working group (TWG) to develop the guidelines for the implementation of free prescription glasses and optometric services. It can be recalled that as early as March 5, 2024, Lee filed House Resolution (HR) No. 1623 urging PhilHealth to include optometric services in its benefit package. According to IPAO Chairman Dr. Charlie Ho, Lee’s HR 1623 “paved the way and advocated for Filipinos’ right to comprehensive optometric services and free prescription eyeglasses to improve productivity and reduce the financial burden of Filipinos.” A staunch health advocate, Lee described the move as a significant step towards achieving broader healthcare access as part of the Universal Health Care Law, particularly for Filipinos struggling with vision problems. “Malaking tulong ito sa productivity ng ating mga kababayan. Magbibigay liwanag ito hindi lang sa paningin, kundi pati na sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay at kinabukasan ng milyon-milyon nating kababayan,” he said. Other health services included in the commitments from DOH and PhilHealth, among others, are: Free diagnostic tests such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, Computed Tomography (CT) scan and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as part of outpatient services not later than December 31, 2024; At least 80% coverage for cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and procedures for heart diseases not later than December 31, 2024; 50% across-the-board PhilHealth benefit increases effective November 2024; “Patuloy po nating bantayan ang pagtupad ng DOH at PhilHealth sa mga ipinangako nilang serbisyong pangkalusugan na kailangang-kailangan at matagal nang inaasam ng ating mga kababayan. Huwag natin itong tantanan. Laban natin itong lahat!” Lee stated. Healthcare Access and Equity Previous PostNext Post Latest Posts 08 Nov 2024 Cong.
