Lastly, this PhilHealth Benefit Package for COVID-19 is only available in areas with surges as declared by the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF).
Inclusions
If you’re eligible for this PhilHealth Benefit Package for COVID-19, you’ll have access to the following services:
Consultation and Monitoring Services
CHIBP provides a link between the isolated patient and a healthcare worker. After the initial face-to-face consultation, a healthcare worker will monitor the patient daily for 10 days via phone, text, or video conference.
Referral to a Higher Level Health Institution
The PhilHealth Benefit Package for COVID-19 ensures that should the isolated individual’s symptoms worsen — as reported during daily check-ins — it will be the assigned healthcare worker’s responsibility to refer him or her to a higher-level facility.
CHIBP also ensures that the healthcare worker will help the patient seek in-patient care during an emergency.
Patient and Caregiver Education
This PhilHealth Benefit Package for COVID-19 also helps patients and caregivers learn more about symptoms management, proper isolation, infection prevention and control, and red flags to watch out for.
