Utilization of Social Health Insurance for Maternal Health Services in the Philippines

Abstract and figures
The Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) implemented the Maternity Care Package (MCP) in 2001 making explicit the intention to improve health care access and financing support for pregnant members. The MCP benefit was one of the health financing packages aimed at attaining the Millennium Development Goals. After more than a decade of design enhancements and implementation, a review of its utilization can inform whether PhilHealth coverage led to maternal health care access among women of reproductive age. A household survey among women of reproductive age using a multistage sampling design was conducted in 2016. Out of 1,041 respondents, only 67.5% were aware of PhilHealth benefits for delivery care; respondents aware about the coverage for antenatal (48.3%) and postnatal care (39.8%) were even fewer. Among PhilHealth members, the self-reported utilization of MCP for delivery was 29.7%, and even lower during the antenatal (18.9%) and postnatal periods (13.0%). Sociodemographic factors associated with higher utilization of MCP included older maternal age, older maternal age at first childbirth, at least college education, employment, and knowledge about their MCP entitlements. Continuity of care and awareness of entitlements need to be improved. It is critical to address underlying gaps in access to reproductive health services, education, and employment, as well as to give attention to younger and teenage mothers. These findings hold lessons for a low-and middle-income country moving to provide universal health coverage to reduce maternal deaths.
