Agri Partylist Rep. Wilbert Lee demanded Health Secretary Herbosa resign for failing to deliver on promises to reduce out-of-pocket medical expenses and enhance healthcare benefits. Herbosa and PhilHealth chief Ledesma missed deadlines for action plans, including a 50% increase in benefits and free diagnostic tests. Lee filed a House resolution citing lack of accountability and called for adherence to signed commitments. The proposed benefits were aimed to take effect by November and December this year but remain unaddressed. Herbosa has yet to respond to Lee’s follow-ups or the mounting criticism from lawmakers.
