PHILHEALTH INSURANCE CARD IS A VALID GOVERNMENT ID

The PVC-type Health Insurance Card (HIC) issued to PhilHealth members in the Formal Economy and Informal Sector on a voluntary basis at a cost of Php 90.00 is a duly recognized valid government-issued identification card which should be honored in all transactions requiring the verification of a person’s identity.
The same ID may also be presented in PhilHealth accredited providers in lieu of the Member’s Data Record (MDR) together with a properly accomplished Claim Form 1 (CF-1) during benefit availment. However, Informal Sector members are still required to present a proof of payment to avail of benefits.
All concerned government agencies, as well as PhilHealth accredited collecting agents, are requested to recognize and include the said HIC in their list of honored IDs.
