Frequently Asked Questions

How much does PhilHealth cover for a hospital stay?

PhilHealth pays a fixed "case rate" per condition or procedure β€” for example, β‚±29,250 for moderate pneumonia, β‚±19,500 for dengue, or β‚±29,000 for a normal delivery. The case rate is deducted from your bill at an accredited facility; any remaining balance is out of pocket (or covered by an HMO).

Does PhilHealth pay the full bill?

No. The case rate is a fixed amount, not the full bill. In a private hospital your total bill is usually higher than the case rate, so you still pay the difference. In many government hospitals the case rate can cover most or all of the bill.

How many dialysis sessions does PhilHealth cover?

PhilHealth covers up to 156 hemodialysis sessions per year at β‚±6,350 per session (about β‚±990,600 a year), deducted from your bill at accredited dialysis centers.

Where can I see every PhilHealth case rate?

This tool lists the most commonly searched benefits. For the full, official list you can search PhilHealth's Case Rate Search by condition, ICD-10, or RVS code.
