PHILHEALTH ePAY

We are pleased to inform you that we at UnionBank of the Philippines has entered into specialized collection programs with the PHILIPPINE HEALTH INSURANCE CORPORATION(PHIC) designed to provide you with greater convenience and value-added benefits in the settlement of your monthly employer contributions. We refer in particular to the Philhealth E-pay Premium Contributions Program via UnionBank's ONEHUB.GOV.

The Philhealth e-Pay provides electronic messaging facility for efficient transmission and processing of your Philhealth contributions. With the Philhealth e-Pay, you would no longer submit your employee listing manually to the PHIC branch and separately remit payments by going to the bank. With the Philhealth e-Pay, your employees' contributions will be posted monthly and within a matter of days, thus allowing for faster processing of your benefit claims.

HOW DOES IT WORK?



UnionBank's ONEHUB.GOV platform covers the electronic submission from the employer to Philhealth of the Monthly Premium Contribution List (MPCL) file, and it will automatically validate the file and display the status of Payment.

Once the authorizer approves the transaction, a corresponding Payment Advice (PA) will be sent to the Employer. If the transaction fails, the system will prompt the authorizer for the error confirmation and provide reason why the transaction was rejected.

At the end of the day, ONEHUB.GOV will forward the MPCL and PA to Philhealth. Philhealth will now process, validate and send a corresponding Monthly Payment Acknowledgement (MPA) to Unionbank and to the Employer.

Unionbank's ONEHUB.GOV system automatically debits the account of the employer once the transaction has been approved. In turn, it will also credit the account of Philhealth on real time basis.
