TO ensure fast and easy quality service, the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) introduces better ways of making premium payment transactions hassle-free for its members.
One of the latest payment modalities that it is introducing is its tie-up with Bayad Center for the use of the Bayad Center 1Pay Machine, a self-service payment kiosk where members can pay their PhilHealth premiums in just one (1) minute. It has a user-friendly interface and available 24/7. Bayad Center 1Pay Machine is currently deployed in various business centers in the National Capital Region (NCR) and will soon be available in government offices, malls, factories and convenience stores.
“Members’ satisfaction is our fulfillment,” said Alexander A. Padilla, PhilHealth President and CEO, adding that, "using advanced digital technology in the premium payment aspect makes every transaction in PhilHealth better, faster and easier."
Earlier, PhilHealth introduced the Electronic Premium Remittance System (EPRS), Version 3.1 , a web-based application designed to enable employers to pay their premium contributions online. The system can be accessed by clicking the Accredited Collecting Agents or ACAs icon in the corporate website (www.philhealth.gov.ph) and the user will then be redirected to the bank’s online payment facility to register and do the usual online banking process. Online remitted contributions are immediately posted to the employee’s contribution ledger.
Currently, Security Bank Corporation provides such service using the EPRS facility. (END) (Faudia H. Subillaga)
