Dear Geomar,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Sep 29, 2023 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for Philhealth verify number.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance, we regret to inform you that due to an information security incident that was detected on September 22, 2023, access to affected PhilHealth systems were disabled or unplugged as part of the information security containment measures implemented by the Corporation.  Thus, we cannot yet verify your PhilHealth Identification Number (PIN). We appeal for your understanding regarding this matter.  

Rest assured, PhilHealth is collaborating with other partner government agencies and doing all necessary measures to address the problem and prevent its recurrence in the future.

PhilHealth will release updates on these matter via its official Facebook page.
