Hi. May I know if RA 11228 "An act providing for the mandatory Philhealth coverage for all Persons with Disability (PWDs)" is already in effect? 

Do I need to "activate" it on my end or can I just stop paying monthly contributions since I already have my PWD ID from my LGU

Thank you for your swift reply,

I have a follow up question, I checked the PRPWD and I don't see my name in there, is registering at DOH PRPWD (Philippine Registry of
Persons with Disability) different from registering at my LGU? 

If so, am I the one that should register myself or do I ask my LGU to do so? what is the process? I can avail PWD benefits just fine but I'm curious why my name isnt included.

Lastly, once I'm registered at PRPWD do I have to reregister myself at philhealth updating my PWD status?

Thank you
