Established in 1995, PhilHealth has provided affordable healthcare coverage to millions of Filipinos, ensuring that they have access to quality healthcare services when they need it the most.

The PhilHealth ID card contains important information such as the member’s name, PhilHealth identification number, and coverage package. It also includes a photo of the member for easy identification.
Recently, PhilHealth has unveiled a new design for the PhilHealth ID card, aimed at making it more user-friendly and convenient for members. The new design features a sleek and modern look, with updated security features to prevent fraud and misuse.

It looks more professional and modern, and I feel more confident using it when I need to avail of healthcare services,” said Maria, a PhilHealth member from Quezon City.
In addition to the new design, PhilHealth has also introduced a digital version of the PhilHealth ID card, which can be accessed through the PhilHealth website or mobile app. The digital ID card contains the same information as the physical ID card and can be used for online transactions and appointments.
“We understand that many Filipinos prefer digital solutions for convenience and ease of use. The digital PhilHealth ID card is our way of adapting to the changing times and ensuring that our members can access their healthcare benefits anytime, anywhere,” said Dr. Ferrer.

It makes it so much easier to keep track of my benefits and make appointments with healthcare providers,” said John, a PhilHealth member from Manila.
Aside from the new design and digital version of the PhilHealth ID card, PhilHealth has also been working on improving its services and expanding its coverage to reach more Filipinos in need. The agency has launched several programs and initiatives to ensure that all Filipinos have access to quality healthcare services, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
