He emphasized the importance of bringing accessible health benefits closer to PalawanSU employees and retirees through the enrollment opportunity.
PhilHealth personnel were also present during the activity to assist employees and retirees with their enrollment and address inquiries and concerns related to their PhilHealth membership and benefits.
