PhilHealth and the Tan Yan Kee Foundation, Inc. recently partnered for the PhilHealth Card Distribution Project. The effort directly addresses the need of the less fortunate to avail of treatment and services for health problems that are otherwise unaffordable to them. The partners aim to provide PhilHealth membership which have not been accessible to them yet.
Initially covered during the distribution from July to October of this year were areas in Northern and Southern Luzon provinces and the Visayas. 1,949 recipients in Ilocos Sur, La Union, Abra and Occidental Mindoro who are farmers, 104 from Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya, and 206 from Leyte are now PhilHealth members.
