VIA GRAPHIC PLUS — President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. continues to push for more accessible primary health care for Filipinos nationwide through Handog ng Pangulo (HNP). As part of the celebration, DOH and PhilHealth will bring YAKAP and other health services to schools and workplaces across the country on September 14, 2026.  

With the participation of 257 Yakap  Clinics with partner GAMOT Providers, PhilHealth will offer the following services at all HNP sites: member services, YAKAP selection and empanelment, consultation, claiming of free medicines through GAMOT, and PSA registration support.  

“We want to bring YAKAP to where Filipinos already are. Pinagtutulungan namin ng DOH, under UNA, yung holistic approach to health in schools, workplaces, and communities na meron kang health promotion interventions at may primary care services na available,” said PhilHealth Acting President and CEO Dr. Beverly Ho. “On this day, we want to show the member experience that we are working toward. Dapat ganito kadali mag-access ng primary care services para sa lahat ng Pilipino.”
