Healthcards

[msals2007]

My hubby and I are both employed and part of our company benefits is the health card. Pwede sana naming ikuha mga sons namin as dependent, problem is sobrang laki pa rin ng premium (around P17k per head for a P100k coverage) that's why we scouted for a cheaper one. Healthy naman mga kids namin and wala naman kaming mga pre-existing condition so okay lang na mas mababa ang coverage. Kailangan lang talaga namin for check-up and emergency purposes. My officemate recommended medicard. Google their website. Mura lang ang premium may mga family plans pa. We plan to enroll within the week or next week. We'll get the plan P800, P66k coverage per illness per person. For one principal and 2 dependents, premium is around P17k. Tatlong tao na yun ha. Yun nga lang for that plan hindi included yung mga mahal na hospitals like Asian, St. Lukes, Medical City, Makati Med. Pero okay na din kasi Manila doctors naman ang pedia ng sons ko.

My babies have 2 health cards - Maxicare (from my husband's company; covers confinement and emergency) and Medicard (from my company; covers out-patient consultations, confinement and emergency).  It's really convenient to have a health card but our choice of doctors is not confined to the health card alone.  In fact, their main doctor is not accredited with either Maxicare and Medicard but we don't like to switch them to another doctor at this point because their pedia-neonatologist knows their medical history from birth.

my daughter is under maxicare as well. we paid around Php2.k for a Php250k coverage (the premium is subsdized by hubby's company). funny thing though, we didnt know that her pedia (who happens to be my lola) is affliated with maxicare. so from the very start her checkups are free. it was only when she was hospitalized we learned that. from then on, we used na her maxicare during checkups para somehow may kikitain naman yung pedia niya from us.

^ 2k/month?

[hunny_ally]

^Php2500 annual premium. but thats a subsidized rate. bulk of the premium is paid by my husband's company

My healthcard is Maxicare, I used to have an Intellicare kaya lang mas prefer ko Maxicare plus the Philhealth as well.

Kaka-member lang ni baby sa Fortunecare and nagamit kagad namen nung nahospital cya due to pneumonia. Additional charges lang sa upgrade ng room binayaran namen. But of course, mas ok pa din na hindi ma-ospital mga babies. Kakaawa kase.

[poohbear]

^ sis, how much binayaran mo sa Fortune Care? Maxicare kasi kami sa office kaya lang di pa pwede si baby maging dependent. Dapat 2 years old and above.My baby just turned 1 last December.

[msals2007]

Mura lang ba sa Fortunecare? All hospitals?
Sa Medicard pala mommy, 90 days old ang baby pwede ng dependent.
P2500 na annual premium sa Maxicare? wow, bait ng company ng hubby mo, ang laki ng subsidized amount considering na P250k ang coverage ha.
Sa amin P17k na annual premium at P100k na coverage. Kasi naman hindi subsidized pag dependent, principal lang talaga.

My baby's healthcard is Medicard, company benefit din. Me as well meron.
Pero ndi nmin maxadong nagagamit sa kaniya since yung pedia eh ndi nman accredited.
Kapag pumupunta lang kami sa pedia pulmo saka for lab test.

It's good to have health card.

^sis, it's not allowed to advertise dito. you go to the for sale thread and look for the thread that is applicable to what you're offering.

[marssie]

ako din gusto ko kuhanan health card si baby kaso ang requirements kailangan pareho kami ni hubby na may hc, eh si hubby wala, kailangan kumuha din kami for him as individual ako kasi provided ng company kaso ang mahal di kaya ng powers namin sa ngayon.  thankful na lang nga ako at kahit papaano awa ng Diyos lagi namang healthy anak ko yung normal na ubo lagnat sipon lang nagiging prob namin.

[marssie]

^got your message  salamat, pacheck ko.

We have Medicard and I like their service. Their doctors are good. One of the owners (or son of the owner ata) visits confined patients daily to check if their needs are being attended to. If you raise concerns sa kanya, he addresses it din agad.

[angelicmom]

We have Medicad, one of the company's benefit din.  It is real a big help to have a health card.

[newbie_mommie]

ano po kya mas maganda medicard or fortune care?
mas mahal ba ang fortune care?

[iRasH]

we have a healthcard which is part of the employees benefits in our company and our broker is Maxicare, although maganda ang coverage for employees but for dependents, it's a different story..

so i enrolled my kids to MEDICARD  .... very useful and maganda ang coverage specially sa mga kids....

Intellicare - company's benefit. hubby just passed our daughter's birth certificate when they were renewing their healthcards, ayun enrolled na baby namin. ok naman so far
