History of PhilHealth: THE call to serve the rural indigents echoed since
the early '60s when the Philippine MedicalAssociation introduced the MARIA Project whichprioritized aid to communities in need of medical
assistance. The Project would then be considereda valuable precursor to the Medicare program,from which a medical care plan for the entirePhilippines was created. On August 4, 1969,
Republic Act 6111 or the Philippine Medical CareAct of 1969 was signed by President Ferdinand E.Marcos which was eventually implemented inAugust 1971.

History of PhilHealth: The Philippine Medical Care Commission (PMCC) was tasked to
oversee the implementation of the program which went for almosta quarter of a century.
In the 1990s, a vision for a better, more responsive governmenthealth care program was prompted by the passage of several bills
that had significant implications on health financing. The public'sclamor for a health insurance that is more comprehensive in termsof covered population and benefits led to the development ofHouse Bill 14225 and Senate Bill 01738 which became "TheNational Health Insurance Act of 1995" or Republic Act 7875, signedby President Fidel V. Ramos on February 14, 1995. The law paved
the way for the creation of the Philippine Health InsuranceCorporation (PhilHealth), mandated to provide social healthinsurance coverage to all Filipinos in 15 years' time.
