Mr Lee Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Sounds like a good idea to me. HE Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) is set to launch a standardized set of reimbursement for common medical and surgical cases being availed of by its members in accredited hospitals nationwide, including Bacolod City and Negros Occidental. Medical cases that would be reimbursed on a case-rate basis include dengue 1 and 2, pneumonia 1 and 2, essential hypertension, cerebral infarction and hemorrhage, acute gastroenteritis, asthma, typhoid fever and newborn care package.Surgical operations that would have a pre-determined fixed rate in terms of hospital reimbursement include radiotherapy, dialysis, normal deliveries as well as those by caesarian section, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, hysterectomy, dilatation and curettage, thyroidectomy, herniorrhapy and mastectomy.Link to the complete story HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
