Some 2 million Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) members or beneficiaries of members in Pangasinan are targeted for the provincial government’s Government Unified Incentives for Medical Consultation (Guiconsulta) program.

Under the program, PhilHealth members who will avail of the agency’s Konsultasyong Sulit at Tama (Konsulta) will be given fare and food allowance.

Pangasinan Governor Ramon Guico III, in a media interview Wednesday, said the provincial goverment has allocated around PHP400 million to PHP500 million to roll out the program this year.
