Salamat po sa mga input.

I have been on HCF eversince. Ok naman coverage. I mostly get it for the dental and ambulance (just in case). I'm also fond of going to the dentist and a couple of root canals and unti unti ko nang pinapapalitan yung worn out fillings ko plus the bi-annual free cleaning at HCF's own dental clinic. doon pa lang bawi bawi na ako sa monthly payments ko. plus may pre-existing heart and kidney condition ako so no need to be on a public waiting list if I need any procedures. it really depends what your priorities are kung sulit sya for you or hinde.

we had our son, without PHI, on a public hospital. wala ako binayaran maliban sa parking.

quality service ang na experience namin though i never experienced hospital sa pinas.

basta i felt we were taken cared of during that experience.

here's based in my experience (no idea ako sa private hospital)

free almost all check ups, tests, delivery pati food, vaccines
solo kami sa room since wala kami nakasabay, possible na madami kayo
check ups paiba iba ng doctor, pero organized nmn ang info keeping nila so hndi issue samin

@DreamerA said:

also

check up appointment, we have to check whats available date and time, though its regular like every forthnight then weekly pag malapit na, pag may PHI ata your choice of date and time e
days before due, hndi kami pwede mag stay sa hospital until lalabas n tlga si baby, my colleague n may PHI said, she was on a private hospital days before her due, relaxing until her due date, parang hotel daw and not sure if allowed ang visitor

maraming salamat po 🙂

ang unawa ko sa loading is kapag after age 31, example age, then kumuha ka PHI.,.. mas malaki premium mo kumpara sa sae person age 35 na may PHI since age 31 sya.. double check mo n lng din

sa panganganak, over all ok nmn, the best so far.

Cs is free p din pero as much as possible try nila natural, though ang Mother ang may final say.

basta i felt we were taken cared of during that experience.

Plus 1. First hand experience. Emergency CS wala kami binayaran na kahit ano.

That was my second pregnancy. 1st ko is CS. 5yrs gap. Nag try ako mag labor, gusto ko kasi normal delivery(VBAC) na on my second. Unfortunately na eCS pa rin. Pero ok ang experience. Sa birthing suite pa nga ako nag labor. Mahal yun sa pinas. Hehe. Buti nalang dito ako nanganak. Nagka complication kasi. Nag internal bleeding ako. Magaling mga doctors nila. Tska alagang alaga ako nun.. tapos nag iron infusion pa ako. Tapos nag iinject ng blood thinning. Dami nangyari. Pero yun nga buti dito nangyari, hindi sa pinas. Kung hindi, malaking gastos.

Hi @DreamerA , I also received a letter about private health insurance. We're still on the process selecting if anu yung okay na kunin. Based on my understanding sa letter, Hospital Cover lang yung need na kunin. Medyo expensive din kase yung insurance lalo na sa mga nagsisimula pa lang. Indicated din sa letter is may 12mos para kumuha ng insurance once you registered sa Medicare. I noticed lang na advance yung padala nila ng letter about getting an insurance.

Hospital cover

Mid Hosp Silvp 500

Extras cover

Hcf Vital Extras

mga 169.40 aud din monthly (single person coverage). madami kasi akong iniinda sa katawan and madalas magpadental kaya medyo comprehensive ang yung cover ko. better safe than sorry.
