I initially planned posting about the maternity Philhealth requirements when I gave birth, however, due to my full time job and schedule I had almost forgotten about this blog. I apologize to those who inquired and never got a response.
I’ll keep it sweet and short as there is not much to discuss. Please note that Philhealth deductions will be separate for you and your baby. Mine was automatically deducted from the bill, however, my son’s was supposed to be reimbursed after securing additional documents. Unfortunately, I was not able to take care of his Philhealth reimbursement as I had no time to do so.
To inquire about the Philhealth requirements, I called Makati Medical Center (this is where I gave birth. You may refer to my previous post about my
birthing experience
for more information) and I think I was transferred to the hospital “Delivery Room” and one of their staff discussed the requirements with me. You can reach Makati Medical Center at 888 8999.
Here is the list of requirements. I am not sure if this is standard across all hospitals, but you can always call them to check.
Two copies of the CF1 Form – To be accomplished by you and signed by your employer, one form for yourself, the other for your baby. I had mine accomplished prior to being admitted at the hospital.
Photocopy of Philhealth ID – I brought the original one and a copy, just in case
Updated MDR (Member Data Record) – You can either request one from your HR department or from your nearest Philhealth office
Two copies of the CF2 Form – This needs to be accomplished by your OB and requires your signature at the back. After giving birth I handed these to one of the nurses and requested to have them filled out and signed before being billed.
Certificate of Philhealth Contributions– You can request for this document from your HR department. I asked for two copies.
Marriage Contract
I remember that they did not ask me for all of these documents when I was at the hospital, but then again it’s better to be sure and ready. If you would like to double check the list of requirements you can always call Makati Medical Center at the number provided earlier.
As for baby’s reimbursement, you can refer to this list provided to me by the Philhealth officer at Makati Med. I won’t be able discuss this in detail though since I was not able to accomplish this after giving birth.
Please keep in mind that it is a whole lot easier to have the deductions processed before leaving the hospital. If you are unable to secure the documents before or while you’re admitted, the deductions can always be reimbursed but remember that you have to process it within 60 days upon discharge otherwise it will no longer be honored by Philhealth.
I hope you moms find this post useful!

thanks !!!♥♥
You’re welcome, Tenshi! 🙂
i just wanted to know , can i submit this requirements as early as possible prior giving birth? and where can i submit this requirements?thanks
As far as I know, you can only submit the Philhealth requirements after you give birth. There are sections on the forms that can only be filled out after you have your baby. Most hospitals have a Philhealth office where this can be processed. Hope this help, Tenshi! 🙂
Hi! Good day po, tanong ko lng po pwde po ba ako kumuha ng philhealth list of contribution ng asawa ko d na po ba kelangan ng autorization letter nya?
Hi Sharon,
I’m very sorry for such a late response! Naligaw yung comment mo sa spam, really sorry. Anyway, I’m not sure if you still need advice on this, and I am not sure myself, pero kadalasan when you have to claim a document in behalf of someone else, an authorization letter along with a valid ID of the person is required.
Hope this helps, kahit late na. Thanks for dropping by the blog!

Hi Dulce, ang alam ko po kasi hiwalay ang Philhealth reimbursement ni mommy and baby. Kung yun po yung tinutukoy ng hospital, may isusubmit pa po na ibang requirements para dun. Yung sa baby ko hindi ko na inasikaso kasi po matrabaho, eh maliit lang naman daw po marereimburse. Try niyo po kausapin yung Philhealth office sa hospital niyo. 🙂
