00:00 Experts are now deciding on the number of people who need dialysis due to kidney failure.

00:08 That's more than 40% in 2023 compared to 2022.

00:13 Maki Pulido is the winner.

00:16 Gia has been accompanying and caring for her one child who is on dialysis for four years.

00:25 Even though PhilHealth has answered 156 dialysis sessions for P2,600 per session,

00:32 the cost of the treatment and other medical services for the child still reaches P30,000 per month.

00:38 That's why the doctor advised her to go for dialysis this December due to kidney failure.

00:44 Gia decided to not go.

00:46 My children are helping each other.

00:51 But if I'm still going to go, I'm not ashamed.

00:56 With the help of a doctor like him,

01:01 I think it's enough for one of us to be able to receive treatment.

01:08 Last year, 42% of people who need dialysis due to kidney failure were elevated compared to 2022.

01:16 This is the result of the increase of people with diabetes and hypertension who can recover from kidney failure.

01:22 Diabetes and hypertension run in families.

01:25 Sometimes you have a family where two to three people have kidney failure and they're going to be on dialysis.

01:34 It's a lifestyle disease if diabetes and hypertension are called.

01:38 We're eating too much sugary food.

01:41 We're not paying attention to our blood sugar.

01:43 We're not compliant with our blood pressure medications.

01:47 That's why the kidney should be regularly checked for high risk or diabetes or hypertension.

01:52 We have very good drugs now.

01:54 They will control blood sugar and they will also protect the kidneys and the heart.

02:01 These drugs are effective and they're effective even in the late stages of kidney disease.

02:07 So we can still delay dialysis by nine years.

02:11 In the whole country, more than 50,000 people are on dialysis.

02:15 PhilHealth is studying to increase the answer of this dialysis package to P5,200 per session from the current P2,600.

02:25 They expect to complete the study within a month.

02:29 In the study, we will see if it's really P5,200 or maybe it can be lower than P5,200.

02:36 This is a big opportunity for Mari Luna where help is needed.

02:43 We can't ask for help anymore.

02:48 We can't queue up anymore.

02:50 For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido, for Tutok, 24 hours.
