PhRO1 Conducts Orientation on KaSAPI and e-Group System

An orientation was conducted by the PhilHealth Regional KaSAPI Action Team (RKAT) on the Kalusugang Abot-Kaya at Sigurado sa PhilHealth Insurance (KaSAPI) Program and the Electronic Group Enrollment and Management System (e-Group) on July 28, 2011 in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur.  KaSAPI program was launched to provide access to quality health care services to wider membership base in the Informal Sector, sustain their membership and implement an alternative payment scheme through PhilHealth’s partnership with organized group like TSPI.  The Electronic Group Enrollment and Management System (eGroup) is an online application developed to be used by the Organized Groups (OGs) in facilitating the enrollment of their members under the KaSAPI Program and let the OGs manage their own data.

Said orientation was attended by the managers and account officers of TSPI Development Corporation branches in Ilocos Sur Area II. During the orientation, the manager of TSPI Ilocos Sur Area II committed a minimum of 220 members for enrolment to the KaSAPI program for the third quarter of 2011 which is really a good news not only to PhilHealth but also for the members and their dependents as well.

Furthermore, TSPI representative from their main office presented the proposed schedule for orientation of their remaining 35 branches for KaSAPI e-Group system as follows:
