e-Government Try-out: PhilHealth
I had the need to find out my PhilHealth number. I didn’t have it among my records. I could have called my friend at our former office, she would have the info. But that’s the less exciting way. How about we try out some e-Government services?
e-Governance: The use of digital technologies to provide government services
Mission: Find out my PhilHealth number via any available e-Governance service.
Attempt 1: PhilHealth hotline via Philippine Information Agency (PIA)
I didn’t have the PhilHealth hotline. But I knew the PIA “Gawin 143” hotline (tel 981-5000, or 1345 on your mobile phone) and I knew that they could connect me to various government agency and LGU hotlines.
Result 1: I chose to connect to the Department of Health. But the DOH hotline kept ringing and ringing. I didn’t bother waiting too long nor trying a second time.
Attempt 2: PhilHealth website ( www.philhealth.gov.ph)
I was hoping to find a form where I could submit my name and it would give me my PhilHealth number.
Result 2: Didn’t find the online service I was hoping for. Either they don’t have that kind of service online or they didn’t advertise it effectively enough for me to find it easily.
Attempt 3: PhilHealth textline (See www.philhealth.gov.ph/txtph.htm)
Ah! There is hope!
To know your PhilHealth Identification Number, type the following:
PHIC[space]PIN[space]LName,FName[space]BDAY(mmddyyyy) and send to 2960For members with extension name (Jr., Sr., III, etc.), type
PHIC[space]PIN[space]LName,FName,ExtensionName[space]BDAY(mmddyyyy) and send to 2960e.g. PHIC PIN CORDERO,ROMMEL,SR
06201974
Result: I tried out the SMS service. It worked like a charm! Mission accomplished!
For More PhilHealth service instructions via SMS, Text in PHIC [space] HELP and send to 2960. Services include information on benefits, dependents, claims status, contact information and employer number.
There are a number of e-Government services out there. Some are lousy, some are exemplary. Let’s try them out more of them and tell people about it.

it worked for me guys! just make sure you are keying in the correct information. kaya lang PIN lang ba yun? is that also my philhealth number?
hi leiram. PIN stands for PhilHealth Identification Number… so that 12-digit number that your received through text is your permanent philhealth number that is to be used in all of your transactions with the corporation.

ask ko lang tungkol sa refund ng Philhealth sino ba ang mag claim, ang member ba o ang employer na syang nagbabayad ng hospital bills ko?
pwede pa ba maclaim ang philhealth maternity khit almost three years na ako nakapanganak. member ako ng philhealth at sss kaya lng bago me manganak dko sya nahulugan for more than a year kc nawalan ako ng work. posible ba ng may mkuha ako kc caesarian delivery ako malaki gastos tapos wala me nakuha kahit sa sss kc im not aware of it. tnx
how come my new employer and who is the curren paying /remmitting employee is not indicated in my MDR, this is very incovenient as we have been asked by the hospital to pay for Philhealth’s portion when I have been paying for years as Philhealth member. and just because Philhealth does not update their Data Base.. the poor patient is left with no choice but pay the entire amount despite of the requirenments presented. I think Philhealth should regularly update their data base to prevent inconvencience on the part of its members,…
