President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Philippine Health Insurance and Corporation (Philhealth) Ricardo Morales, said he will file his resignation today, August 26.

In his DZMM Teleradyo interview he said, “Ngayong umaga I have to file it so that merong hard copy. Nagpapasalamat na rin ako sa Pangulo at pinayagan niya ko magpahinga. Ngayon maatupag ko na ang aking kalusugan at ang aking pamilya.” He was diagnosed with lymphoma and undergoing a chemotherapy.

He added, “Malaking pasasalamat ko sa Pangulo natin, he never wavered in his confidence in me and I’m so humbled.” Morales assured that he will cooperate still with the investigations regarding the fraudulent activities in Philhealth. He said the investigation are still ongoing and he is complying to Department of Justice. He signed a bank secrecy waiver and submitted the document to SALN (Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net worth).

He is confident in IRM, Philhealth’s Interim Reimbursement and Mechanism. He said IRM has transparency and they are submitting the receipt to Congress to whom, how much and where it goes.

Aside from Morales, Rodolfo del Rosario PhilHealth’s Senior Vice President for the Legal Sector also submitted his resignation last Monday. Morales said that he had no regrets serving the PhilHealth and he has a clear conscience about the issue that they are facing.
