00:00When you went to the public hospital, you didn't have enough facilities.

00:03Yes.

00:04Where did you move to?

00:05We moved to a private hospital.

00:06He always asked us to move to a private hospital.

00:09That's the painful part.

00:10Because, do you know about universal health care?

00:14Yes.

00:15Universal health care gives a lot of help,

00:19especially to Filipinos who are very poor

00:22and unable to afford their medical expenses.

00:26So all Filipinos, that's why it's universal,

00:28all Filipinos have the right to go to the hospital

00:32if you need to, for your medical needs.

00:35Not just if you need to have an operation.

00:38From the start, if you feel like you can go to the hospital,

00:42it's free.

00:43All Filipinos have the right to go to the hospital.

00:46It's free because that's what we're spending on PhilHealth

00:51that's so big, it's already a billion.

00:53Billion, billion, billion.

00:55We have the right to go to public hospitals.

01:01The problem is, when you go to a public hospital

01:04to avail your rights that are included in universal health care,

01:08they don't have facilities.

01:11They don't have equipment.

01:13Even beds in hospitals.

01:15There are no more beds in hospitals.

01:17There are no more hospitals.

01:18There are no more facilities.

01:22Even if you have the right to a free medical aid,

01:26when you go there, there are no facilities.

01:29How are you going to avail that?

01:31And if you get a private room, you can't avail it.

01:35Because what they're saying is that you need to go to the ward.

01:38That's our right, right?

01:40And that's a public hospital, right?

01:43A private hospital is not.

01:45So like her, they'll go to a private hospital

01:48but they don't have a payment.

01:50Right?

01:51And for a lot of people who are in a public hospital,

01:54who are in a ward,

01:55when you go to a private room,

01:56it's still questionable.

01:58Correct.

02:00That's why the money that's so big in PhilHealth,

02:04it's a waste if you don't move, right?

02:08Make a facility.

02:10Add a facility.

02:11Buy a lot of beds.

02:14Equipment that can be used in hospitals.

02:16Because even if they go there and say,

02:18we're free here,

02:20even if you're free,

02:22what are we going to give you?

02:23We don't have that.

02:24The public hospitals are not ready.

02:28That's why we're asking

02:30to think about what they need.

02:35If there's no facility,

02:37let's make a facility.

02:39If there's no equipment, let's provide equipment.

02:41Because there's money in PhilHealth.

02:43And we're talking about billions.

02:45Budget.

02:46Yes.

02:47That's why we always hear,

02:49it's hard to get sick in the Philippines.

02:52It's expensive to get sick here in our country.

02:55Because they're not using it properly.

02:57Correct.

02:58That's why when we found out

02:59that the money in PhilHealth is billions,

03:01why didn't they buy equipment?

03:02True.

03:03Why didn't they use the money

03:05to make a lot of facilities?

03:07So that when his brother gets sick,

03:09there's available help.

03:11They won't go to a private hospital

03:14and they'll be forced to pay a lot,

03:16just like now.

03:17They'll run out of money.

03:18And they'll be in debt.

03:19Right?

03:20So that's what a lot of people are going through.

03:23Even when we're talking about

03:25universal health care,

03:27because I talked to someone,

03:28I explained universal health care,

03:30I told them,

03:31I talked to public officials,

03:32I said,

03:33every day there's a boom in the studio.

03:35It bothers me.

03:36Because sometimes,

03:37a group of boomers will come here.

03:39I said,

03:40I want to help them,

03:41but I can't help all the Filipinos.

03:43They said,

03:44actually,

03:45universal health care includes teeth.

03:48Free oral.

03:49Free oral, right?

03:51So they can go to public hospitals

03:53to get their teeth checked.

03:56That's possible.

03:57Another thing,

04:00Filipinos should know their rights.

04:03Because not everyone understands

04:05universal health care.

04:07So at the barangay level,

04:09it should be explained to the barangay

04:10what the rights of Filipinos are.

04:12Right.

04:13That's true.

04:15So that's one of the things

04:16you're trying to do right now,

04:17to make your siblings feel better.

04:19Yes.
