LAWMAKERS are pushing for the passage of a bill granting tax incentives to doctors volunteering their services for free to indigent patients as a way of recognizing their “selfless and committed” efforts in helping provide quality health care to Filipinos.
In filing the bill along with Benguet Rep. Eric G. Yap and ACT-CIS Partylist Reps. Edvic G. Yap and Jeffrey V. Soriano, the Davao City lawmaker lauded doctors who, with or without the pandemic, “have braved the frontlines” to be able to extend their services for free to underprivileged and marginalized Filipinos.
Duterte said that despite this dismal ratio, many doctors still choose to render pro bono services especially in far-flung communities where health care remains scarce. Under HB 5672, the Department of Health and the Philippine Medical Association are tasked to evaluate the pro bono services rendered by physicians by considering the number of hours put in and the nature of the treatment involved in providing such free services.
