Philhealth advises members on payment in UCPB, Allied Bank

INDIVIDUALLY paying members and employers paying Philhealth premium through United Coconut Planters Bank (UCPB) and Allied Bank shall use the Bills Payment Facility of these banks.

Instead of using the Philhealth premium payment slip (PPPS), members and employers paying through UCPB and Allied Bank branches shall fill out the bank’s bills payment slips. The bank will then issue a validated receipt as proof of payment.

For cross referencing purposes, individually paying members are advised to submit a photocopy of their validated receipts to the nearest Philhealth office.

Similarly, employers are advised to attach a photocopy of the receipt to their monthly remittance reports.

All other Philhealth accredited banks nationwide will continue using the PPPS and Philhealth agents receipt.

The receipts issued by UCPB and Allied Bank are proof of Philhealth premium payment for purposes of benefit availment.
