RA 9439 on private room

Requested from DOH by E. Custado at 04:09 PM on Jul 17, 2021.
Purpose: Propose to reconsider the 'private room' term in RA 9439
Date of Coverage: 07/17/2021 - 07/17/2021
Tracking no: #DOH-286888538476

Custado 04:09 PM, Jul 17, 2021

Sa IRR ng RA 9439, “private room” means “ a single occupancy room or a ward-type room divided by either a permanent or semi-permanent partition (except curtains) not to exceed 4 patients per room who are admitted for diagnosis, treatment and other forms of health care maintenance.  Pero sana po, maiconsider na pwedeng nailagay sa private room ang pasyente, hindi dahil sa comfort kundi dahil sa emergency case ito at yun ang room na ibinigay ng hospital. Mas marami pong mahirap sa Pilipinas. In addition, yung harassment style ng billing bago ma discharge ang pasyente na mag promissory note.
