00:00President Bongbong Marcos has no problem with the removal of a PhilHealth subsidy of Php 75 billion
00:07in the BICAM version of the 2025 National Budget.
00:10The PhilHealth has a Php 500 billion reserve fund.
00:15And if a subsidy is given, the fund that can be used for other needs will be deducted.
00:23The PhilHealth's problem is not the fund, but the system of their process of claims.
00:30Accordingly, in the Department of Health, even if the PhilHealth has no subsidy,
00:34it still has a Php 150 billion surplus from the budget last year.
00:42Because the truth is, if you look at it, the Department of Finance has already repaid some of the reserves left,
00:54because it was not used by some people.
00:57In other words, the PhilHealth has sufficient budget to do all of the things that they want to do.
