For 10 years now, Christine Porciuncula, an entrepreneur from Valenzuela City, has been battling end-stage renal disease. While she says the mental stress stemming from her condition is challenging enough, getting by with her erratic income is another story.
Much of her budget is used to cover medical expenses. Money easily goes down the drain with her twice-a-week dialysis on top of the regular medical checkups and other medications.
With costs piling up, Porciuncula says she seeks the help of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) and the local government of Valenzuela. More often than not, she would find herself in a long queue of aid seekers patiently waiting to be called. Such is commonplace in the Philippines, where more than half of the total health spending comes from a household’s out-of-pocket payments (OOP) based on the 2017 Philippine National Health Accounts.
A trip to the hospital always comes with costs. Based on the 2017 National Demographic and Health Survey, the average cost of treatment for confined individuals is PHP21,400. State-run Philippine Health Insurance Corporation or PhilHealth shoulders only less than half of this. This does not include the cost of medicines or services from external pharmacies and laboratories that amounts to an average of PhP5,237.
But with the recent signing of the Universal Health Care (UHC) Law in February, Porciuncula is among those pinning their hopes on its effective implementation.
“Hopefully, with this, I no longer have to fall in line to ask for financial help and worry where to get the money for my treatment,” Porciuncula said in an interview.
The landmark law expands access to health services by automatically enrolling all Filipinos in PhilHealth’s National Health Insurance Program (NHIP). It seeks to ensure that all Filipino citizens have access to a comprehensive set of health services without financial hardship.
