[ PhilHealth Circular No. 004-2015, March 05, 2015 ]

PAYMENT AND REPORTING OF PREMIUM CONTRIBUTIONS OF EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES



Adopted: 05 March 2015
Date Filed: 19 March 2015

Pursuant to Section 6.f of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations of the National Health Insurance Act of 2013, PhilHealth is mandated to “establish and maintain an updated membership and contribution database.”

To fulfill this mandate, the following shall be implemented effective the applicable period of April 2015:

  1. On payment of premium contributions, all employers in the government and private sectors are strongly encouraged to pay at PhilHealth’s accredited collecting agents (ACAs) or through e-Payment facilities. With the continuous endeavour to improve its business processes, the corporation ensures a more efficient posting of premium payments.
  2. On the reporting of premium payments, all employers in the Formal Economy shall adopt the Electronic Premium Reporting System (EPRS) as the mode of preparation and transmission of all remittance reports (RF-1). However, this remains optional for employers of Kasambahays.

During the transition period, the PhilHealth Employer Engagement Representatives (PEERs) are advised to coordinate with the PhilHealth Accounts Information Management Specialists (PAIMS) or the nearest PhilHealth office for the orientation, training and registration for the said systems.

This Circular shall take effect fifteen (15) days after its publication in any newspaper of general circulation and shall be deposited with the National Administrative Register at the University of the Philippines Law Center.

All provisions of previous issuances which are consistent and were not affected by this Circular shall remain in full force and effect.
