Amid the pandemic and massive corruption, Philhealth contribution rate to increase in 2021

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Filipinos should expect to pay higher member contributions to PhilHealth beginning next year.

PhilHealth is implementing the scheduled contribution rate and adjustment in income ceiling for 2021.....by force, pandemic or not!

They steal P15 billion of our money and have the temerity to increase the contribution rate? Ang kapal ng mukha ng PhilHealth.

They say they recognize that the pandemic is taking its toll on Filipinos. However, it is bound to implement the Universal Health Care Law.

Those earning below  P10,000 shall be fixed at P350/month while those earning P70,000/month or higher is fixed at P2,450/month.

Ok...let's do some deductions but let's all note that we are in a PANDEMIC right now okay? In case we miss that fact

SSS = increase in contribution

Philhealth = increase in contribution

salaries = NO. FUCKING. INCREASE. AT. ALL. because. we. are. in. a. FUCKING. PANDEMIC!!!!

Buti pa ang mga OFW umalma sa Facebook at na suspend ang contribution nila.  Tayo tuloy ang bayad habang walang convicted high-ranking officials.

Lawmakers in August investigated PhilHealth for alleged corruption as whistleblowers accused executives of pocketing some P15 billion ($309.6 million) in funds.

Kung di pa kayo galit sa mga tarantado sa Philhealth, and by extension, Duterte, after this, then I am sorry - you need to rethink your life choices.

But wait there's more...

2022 - Premium rate will be 4%

2023 -  4.5%

Ah wait there's still more...

2024 to 2025 - 5%!!!!

How to oppose? May petition ba or anything na need ko fill up-an para ipahiwatig na ayoko?  Pahingi link. Tanginang gobyerno to, ang hirap na nga ng buhay, gagatasan pa tayo. Asan yung 15B??

PhilHealth has the audacity to increase our monthly contribution and make people suffer when the corruption issue wasn't even addressed yet. 

Hindi ba talaga uso ang HIYA sa government na 'to? Ganun lang ba yun? Higher contributions, higher chances of corruption? Preparation for the next election campaign?

I'm tired of this government. The future of the people in the Philippines is bleak. 

They are milking us even when the pandemic has crippled us and they are still investigating the swindled billions.

Wala na nga regular na trabaho karamihan eh. Kawawa talaga mga workers sa administration na eto. Itataas para mas marami silang nanakawin. Ginawang gatasan mga Pinoy.

So we’re talking about how much money an episode of Sweet Home costs and came to the point where we discovered that the money stolen from PhilHealth funds is BIGGER than a season’s budget of Netflix’s most expensive show - The Crown. Imagine how much money that is. 

Note also that SSS contribution is set to increase by January 2021. Dobleng dagdag na ibabawas sa sweldo natin inspite of the pandemic?

January means bayaran ng insurance, PhilHealth, and SSS. Start the year with gastos. Huhu.

Bago taasan ang contribution sa PhilHealth, ibalik muna ng mga opisyal na yan ang 15B na kinulimbat nila. Dapat ring managot lahat ng kasabwat dito. Papahirapan na naman ang mga mamamayan samantalang yung mga tiwali ay hinayaan lang makalusot sa ginawa nila. 

I don't think it's feasible to proceed with the contribution increase for 2021 in a middle of a pandemic. Let alone a pending case on the Php 15 Billion Philhealth fund.

Philhealth is raising funds because it's been pushed to the brink of bankruptcy by corrupt officials who, for some reason, have avoided media scrutiny for the past couple of months. 

FYI, ang average premium ng HMO for an employee under corporate account is 15K for 150K MBL. May Inpatient and Outpatient Coverage.

The premium below is roughly 30K/yr with limited coverage pa! Tangina! I hate it here in this country. Mapapamura ka na lang talaga!

Mas OK pa sa private HMO.

Dito sa Philhealth, yes libre consultation pero pipila ka simula ng 5am.

Mag life insurance na lang tayo kung 2.5k ang monthly mo. Ang lala! Huwag na tayong magbayad dahil nanakawin lang din naman nila. Sayang lang ang pagod natin dahil sa kanila lang mapupunta!

My wish for 2021 is we stop asking people why they’re single or gotten fat.

There are more important things to ask like Where is the 15 billion pesos, Philhealth?

Duterte reminds the public that presumption of innocence remains until conviction. WTF! He understands presumption of innocence and applies it to Philhealth officials accused of corruption...but does not apply it to red-tagging & drug cases. Selective justice?!

I think we don't need a vaccine anymore, because during the pandemic, our immune system is building antibodies against what it is expose to such as "Government's incompetence", "Duque's a disappointment", "missing 15B PhilHealth fund" and the list goes on.
