Hi,

Good day!

May I know if you have a program for financial assistance for covid patient for you voluntary member.

My Mom was a voluntary member of SSS around 8-9 years now. She's a retired government worker (Nurse). Upon her retirement  she have started paying her membership with SSS. She retired at the age of 56 and she's now 67. She's currently admitted in Agusan del Norte Provincial Hospital as covid positive.

We would like to know if she'd be able to get any financial assistance from SSS as a voluntary member as she doesn't have any employer.

Thank you
