Governor Lilia Pineda, together with former Mayor Rodrigo Canlas, led the distribution of the PhilHealth Member Data Records to the beneficiaries of the government’s Pamilyang Pantawid Pilipino Program in this town at the Municipal Multi-purporse area here.

During the distribution, Governor Pineda reiterated her goal to make health care accessible to all Kapampangans, especially to the poorest of the poor, through the help of their personal PhilHealth cards.

She disclosed that the coverage includes free medical check-ups, hospitalization and laboratory examination, among others at any public or private hospitals all over the provi n ce.

She urged the beneficiaries to maximize the use of their PhilHealth cards to ensure the health and wellness of their respective families which is the main goal of the program.

“Wala na tayong rason para magkasakit dahil suportado na ng gobyerno ang lahat ng gastusin. Kapag may nararamdaman kayo, pumunta na agad sa ospital at huwag nang hayaang lumala. Ito ay regalo ng gobyerno kaya gamitin natin,” she said.

Canlas, for his part, extended his gratitude in behalf of Mayor Leonora Wong to the Provincial Government of Pampanga headed by Governor Pineda and PhilHealth team for giving such privilege to the people of San Simon.

“Malaking bagay sa mga taga-San Simon dahil ang usaping kalusugan ay parating importante. Nagpapasalamat tayo kay Governor Pineda sa pagmamahal niya hindi lang sa mga Simonians kundi sa buong Kapampangan,” he said.

Also present during the distribution were Vice-Mayor Keko Almario, councilors Glenn Yabut and Beda Pineda and board members Fritzie David-Dizon, Gerome Tubig and Pol Balingit.
