PHILHEALTH AND MMDA RENEW PARTNERSHIP TO BOOST PUBLIC AWARENESS ON HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE

The Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) reaffirmed their long-standing commitment to public health education, building upon six years of partnership.

Leading the signing ceremony of the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on May 8, 2025 in Makati City were PhilHealth Acting President and CEO Dr. Edwin M. Mercado and MMDA Acting Chairperson Atty. Romando S. Artes, joined by key officials from both agencies. This renewed MOA marks the continuation of their collaborative efforts to boost public awareness and understanding of PhilHealth benefits that are being enhanced continuously as mandated under the Universal Health Care law.

Under the MOA, MMDA will utilize its marketing communication channels including its digital and non-digital media platform to help circulate timely and accurate information on PhilHealth initiatives and campaigns. In turn, PhilHealth will provide updated Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials, and provide onsite registration during orientation activities.

Dr. Mercado emphasized the value of collaboration in advancing public health goals. “Through the signing of this memorandum of agreement we reinforce our joint commitment towards protecting the health and safety of the Filipinos in our shared dedication in delivering Universal Health Care to the Filipino people. Kasama po dito ang pagbibigay ng anunsyo nun pong information sa ating mga miyembro.”

In response, Atty. Artes renewed their support to PhilHealth’s information drive. “All of our facilities and assets will be used especially in the promotion of this beautiful project.,” he said.

This joint effort supports the full implementation of the Universal Health Care (UHC) Act by encouraging greater public engagement and education, especially in populated areas where health communication is crucial.
