How To Maximize Your PhilHealth Benefits?

To maximize your PhilHealth contributions, you need to be more aware of its coverage and its limitations.

Taking for example, an expectant mother. Moms who are excited about giving birth to their little bundle of joy should start thinking about the costs that come with childbirth.

Women giving birth need to shell out anywhere between P5,000 and P100,000, depending on where they want to deliver the baby. Caesarian delivery adds more to the total costs, which means that a lot of preparation in terms of budget is needed.

This does not include prenatal needs such as supplements, vaccinations, regular ob-gyne check-ups, and ultrasound scans.

PhilHealth members with a monthly regular contribution can enjoy maternity benefits encompassing all that’s stated above. However, there are certain limitations to the coverage:

  • Pregnancy below age 19
  • First pregnancy at age 35 and older
  • Multiple births such as twins and triplets
  • Abnormalities of the ovaries, uterus, or placenta
  • History of three miscarriages or abortions
  • History of one stillbirth
  • History of serious medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, moderate to severe asthma, etc.
