PHILHEALTH: Free Coverage for Solo Parents & their Children

PHILHEALTH: FREE COVERAGE NOW AVAILABLE FOR SOLO PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN!

According to PhilHealth’s Memorandum Circular 2024-0020, registered solo parents and their children are now automatically enrolled as National Health Insurance Program (NHIP) members.

This is part of Republic Act No. 11861, also known as the Expanded Solo Parents Welfare Act. Solo parents will be enrolled as principal members under the “indirect contributor” membership type, with “solo parent” as the subtype.

Qualified solo parents must submit the revised PhilHealth membership registration form to be included in the PhilHealth coverage.

Only parents with a VALID SOLO PARENT ID will be registered for free PhilHealth coverage. Therefore, they must first obtain a Solo Parent Identification Card (SPIC) from their local government unit to update their PhilHealth membership records.

For more details, refer to PhilHealth Circular 2024-0020: Automatic Coverage of Solo Parents and their Children or Dependents to the National Health Insurance Program (NHIP).
