Where can I get medical assistance in the Philippines? Our hospital bill is now 3 million pesos.

Hello, everyone. My father, the breadwinner of our family, has been hospitalized for 12 days. He spent 9 days in the ICU and is now in a telemetry room that costs ₱40,000 per day. Our bill has already reached ₱3 million.

I’ve tried reaching out to the DOH for assistance, but they require a certificate of indigency, which we don’t qualify for. While we’re not impoverished, we don’t have the means to cover this amount immediately.

If anyone knows of organizations or avenues where I can seek urgent medical assistance, please let me know. Your advice would mean the world to me. As the eldest child, I’m overwhelmed and anxious, but I want to do everything I can for my dad and my family.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and support.
