Healthcare Wins for Every Filipino: PhilHealth Benefits Expanded, Free Diagnostic Tests Soon

Healthcare Wins for Every Filipino: PhilHealth Benefits Expanded, Free Diagnostic Tests Soon Congressman Wilbert “Manoy” Lee continues his fight for better healthcare access for every Filipino! After intense deliberations, we have successfully secured a 50% increase in PhilHealth benefits and expanded coverage for essential diagnostic tests like PET scan, CT scan, and MRI not later than Dec. 2024. These wins mean more affordable and accessible medical care for every Filipino family. Imagine not having to worry about costly diagnostic tests or treatments anymore—because healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Here’s what you can expect: – 50% increase in PhilHealth benefits, effective November 2024. – Free PET scan, CT scan, and MRI as part of outpatient services to be implemented not later than December 31, 2024. – 80% coverage for cancer treatments like chemotherapy, and for heart procedures by the end of this year. – Free prescription glasses for children and adults by November 2024. We need to stay vigilant and ensure these commitments from DOH and PhilHealth are delivered. This is a fight for every Filipino who are concerned about falling ill, as they fear sinking further into poverty because they cannot afford to buy medicines or pay high hospital expenses. Let’s work together to hold them accountable and make sure these reforms become a reality. Manoy Wilbert Lee has stood his ground to secure these benefits, but we need your help!
