PhilCare prepaid health card
Ever since this product had been introduced to me two years ago, I've been an avid fan. Not everyone knows about these (products) so I'm sharing with you. You'd be as ecstatic as I am, for sure.
PhilCare has this prepaid cards for emergency and hospitalization use. I got one for my household help and I've been renewing every year. The name of the product is ER Vantage Plus. You have several ER Vantage options. I chose ER Vantage Plus 80k coverage. It's a good coverage to have than none. The card is for one-time use only evenif you have not fully utilized your coverage. As of this writing, you can use up to 3 cards in a year. Payment is also done online. Activation of the card is through SMS so I find it very convenient. Too cool! :)
PhilCare has some other products too other than these two. They have for consultation and some comprehensive plans. To know more about other products they offer, click PhilCare Product List
