Increasing PhilHealth benefits 'doable,' says lawmaker

House of Representatives' Majority Leader and Iloilo Rep. Janette Loreto-Garin, in a press conference on Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024, believes that increasing the benefits of the State-run Philippine Health Insurance Corporation for its members are "doable" but says that reforms have to be instituted in curbing fraud. She also said that some provisions of the Universal Health Care law must be amended, including requiring a Phase Four Clinical Trial for vaccines before it can be used.
