Bills of patients sponsored by losing bets worried hospitals
By Nidz Godino
“They are worried since not all of ‘sponsors’ won in the last elections,” Private Hospitals Association of the Philippines Inc. (PHAPI) president Jose de Grano said citing political sponsorship issues following recent elections, private hospitals raised concern over more than P7 billion worth of unpaid medical services rendered under government’s Medical Assistance for Indigent and Financially Incapacitated Patients (MAIFIP) program.
PHAPI questioned whether its members would still be compensated, given that some patients were endorsed by political candidates who failed to secure seats in May 12 polls.
De Grano said around 40 percent of PHAPI’s 1,200 member hospitals have pending claims, with total receivables exceeding P7 billion.
Seventeen private hospitals in Batangas alone are reportedly owed some P400 million, while many hospitals across Visayas and Mindanao face similar problems.
PHAPI called on Department of Health (DOH) to expedite release of payments to hospitals that provided services under MAIFIP.
“Now that elections are over, our private hospitals who cater to MAIFIP funds by DOH are appealing for immediate payment of these services already given to patients through their MAIFIP program,” said de Grano.
He underscored that services were delivered in good faith and should not be compromised by political outcome of those who endorsed patients.
“We hope that this availment made through our politicians and government officials will be released at once to enable hospitals to recover whatever benefits they have advanced to our indigent patients,” de Grano said.
ISKUP!
