While you will not be denied your PhilHealth benefits if you fail to make a contribution payment or two, you will be billed for the unpaid monthly premiums plus interests when you finally decide to settle. That is why you need to keep your PhilHealth contributions updated to avoid having to make payments right when you’re about to claim your benefits (e.g. you’re in an emergency or you need to be admitted at a hospital). Missed payments can still be paid so that your records remain complete.
How do I pay for missed PhilHealth contributions?
You will be allowed to pay for missed months as long as you have paid nine consecutive monthly contributions before you stopped making payments. Otherwise, you need to consult the nearest PhilHealth office in your area to determine the amount you need to pay, plus interests and fines.
Example: You failed to pay for your PhilHealth contributions from January 2022 to March 2022. You may pay for the said months within April 2022 ONLY IF your payments from April 2021 to December 2021 are complete.
To get the most accurate computation of the amount you need to pay, visit the nearest PhilHealth office in your area and bring a valid government-issued ID or any type of valid ID.

Hello Daisy! Para makakuha ka ng tama at updated na information tungkol sa PhilHealth claims mo at membership ng iyong asawa, please visit the nearest PhilHealth office in your area. As far as I know, ang mga may valid PWD IDs ay automatic members ng PhilHealth at entitled din silang mag nominate ng kanilang beneficiaries or dependents. Please visit the nearest PhilHealth for more details, or visit their official Facebook page.
