The House of Representatives’ Suporta sa Bayan Desk has provided more than P381.5 million in medical assistance to 7,174 Filipinos since its launch in March 2026.
Led by House Speaker Faustino ‘Bojie’ Dy III, the program connects beneficiaries with aid from the Department of Social Welfare and Development and the Department of Health.
Assistance covers medicines, hospital bills, chemotherapy, dialysis, medical procedures, and funeral expenses.
The program expanded its daily capacity in July, serving nearly 2,900 clients and facilitating over P167 million in assistance during the month.
House officials said the initiative will continue to expand by partnering with more government agencies to make public assistance more accessible nationwide.
