The PAPO Speakers Bureau will serve as PhilHealth’s information multipliers to their member patients. They will help PhilHealth carry out the task of informing their fellow members of their benefits, registration, contribution and benefit availment process.
PhilHealth personnel who attended the same activity helped critique how the participants delivered their topics based on what they have learned from the training and those who did their best and were able to present their materials well were given incentives.
Initially those who joined in Davao for said training were representatives from DS Foundation; Kythe Foundation; Autism Society Philippines; Parents Mobilization Action Group; Down Syndrome of the Philippines, Inc.; Association of Differently Abled Persons; Davao Autism Intervention Center Foundation, Inc; Capernaum; San Lorenzo Foundation; Person with Disability Office; PWD Association (GACOS); Tagum Deaf Foundation; Tagum Persons with Disability; Focal-Compostela Valley; Tagum Parent Mobilization Action Group; Yellow Warrior Society of the Philippines, Inc.; Southern Philippines Medical Center (various group).
Other Regional Offices in Mindanao are expected to conduct the same for the benefit of more patient organizations in the area. # (hanah g. naanep, PRO III)
