MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) said the P60 billion funds were returned to the state-insurer from the national treasury.
In a statement on Thursday, PhilHealth said the move was a “clear statement of the President's (Ferdinand Marcos Jr.) confidence that it would fulfill its mandate to be a partner to every Filipino in their health needs.”
In December 2025, the Supreme Court ordered the government to return the funds that were transferred to the national treasury back to PhilHealth through the 2026 General Appropriations Act (GAA).
