[ PHILHEALTH CIRCULAR NO. 17, S. 2005, August 17, 2005 ]

ISSUANCE OF AN ENHANCED MEMBER DATA RECORD (MDR) FOR OVERSEAS WORKERS



PhilHealth shall issue an enhanced Member Data Record to all enrolled overseas workers which shall serve as their official proof of eligibility in the availment of benefits. It shall contain the following information: (a) Name of member; (b) Name of qualified dependents, if any; and (c) Validity of coverage corresponding to the amount of premium contribution paid by the member.

Title III, Section 3.A.5 of the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Executive Order No. 182 as amended, directed the Corporation to "issue a PCE which shall be valid for one (1) year after the payment of annual premium contribution and shall serve as proof of eligibility in the availment of NHIP benefits." The enhanced MDR will replace the PhilHealth Certificate of Eligibility (PCE) and Medicare Eligibility Certificate (MEC). However, all valid PCEs/MECs which were issued prior to the implementation of this circular shall remain effective up to the validity period stated therein.

This Circular takes effect fifteen (15) days after publication.

Adopted: 17 Aug. 2005
