02:18My cousin was in the back of the bus.
02:20That's when he was hit by the bus.
02:22He was able to talk to the victim before he was able to continue his life.
02:26He said, I can't take it anymore. I can't take it anymore.
02:29I told him, fight. You can do it.
02:31Because it's Christmas, we don't have enough.
02:33Then suddenly, he lost his balance.
02:35According to the police investigation,
02:37there was a school there that hired buses for an educational tour.

03:10I'm asking for forgiveness from them.
03:12He told the truth.
03:14He didn't deny that he's not the driver.
03:16I hope the justice knows about us.
03:18The case will continue for him.

03:32PhilHealth is hoping that President Bongbong Marcos will review their Zero Subsidy in 2025.
03:38In the Senate, PhilHealth wants to investigate because of the unfair implementation of its duties
03:44based on the Universal Health Care Law.
03:46Maki Pulido was there.
03:51Under the Universal Health Care Law, all Filipinos should be covered by Social Health Insurance.
03:56PhilHealth's role is to ensure that all its members have equal access to health services
04:02including medicines, laboratory tests, and others.
04:05There are a lot of things that need to be recorded.
04:08Just buy your own medicine.
04:10We, the seniors, can't be that expensive. We should be free.
04:14We don't use everything.
04:17We get everything in the hospital, not all the privileges.
04:22Senator JV Ejercito is the principal sponsor of this law
04:25and it is up to PhilHealth to fulfill its duties.
04:29That's why he will call an oversight committee hearing to find out the shortcomings of the implementation.
04:35A lot of people are still asking the politicians where they are.
04:40PhilHealth is answering a small number of questions, which is not the UAC intended.
04:45We should lower the out-of-pocket expenses.
04:48In the Senate's version of the National Budget for 2025,
04:52the 74 billion pesos government subsidy was removed from PhilHealth
04:56because it has a 600 billion pesos reserve fund that is not yet used by the people.
05:01But PhilHealth explained yesterday that in the law, they need to have a reserve fund.
05:06If we have a reserve fund, we can use it because we are continuously increasing and expanding our benefits.
05:18PhilHealth is still positive that the president will review the zero subsidy.
05:22But he said that he will not give it.
05:25Whatever our funds are for now, like the surplus and investment funds,
05:33we will get all of it.
05:35That will be our fund for 2025.
05:39In the camera, I was also asked to investigate,
05:43Representative Raul Bongalon, where will that reserve fund go
05:47and if it is being earned by the officials of PhilHealth.
05:51According to PhilHealth, it will grow to 4% in 500 billion pesos.
05:57We are still trying to get PhilHealth's statement on the possible investigation of the Senate and the camera.
06:03For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido, for 24 Hours.
