PHILHEALTH KONSULTA PACKAGE BENEFITS – Here is a guide on the coverage of the health program for the PhilHealth members.
Millions of Filipinos are members of the Philippine Health Insurance Corp. or PhilHealth. It is a state-run health insurance agency that offers an undeniably more affordable option for the people when it comes to health insurance.
