THE PHILHEALTH ISSUE BEYOND MORALES: A THREAD
Putting runaway animals aside, PhilHealth - which already has a bad history - is once again on fire after corruption allegations rose anew, and Gen. Morales is taking all the heat. But let's look things from a different view:
-MORALES BACKGROUND-
✅PMA Graduate
✅Has Postgraduate Degree in Conflict Studies from Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA
✅Fellow of Institute for Corporate Directors
✅Has diplomas for strategic planning, defense resource economics, & project management
-MORALES BACKGROUND-
✅Joined AFPGEN; Became President-CEO of AFPMBAI (2011-2013)
✅MWSS Administrator

Under UHC, the PhilHealth chief should have atleast 7 yrs XP on public health, management, finance, or combined. Morales has had XP in insurance among other things.
-MORALES' STANCE VS. CORRUPTION-
✅Member of RAM, one of the primary groups that ousted Marcos
✅2003-Wrote a critique vs AFP on poor leadership+corruption which led to failure in crushing NPA
✅2004-Called out AFP Chief Abaya to conduct probe vs. comptroller Carlos Garcia
-MORALES' STANCE VS. CORRUPTION-
✅2005-Morales heavily criticized AFP for building PHP18-M resort in Boracay; was stripped of command as 404th Army Brigade commander
✅1970s-Questioned military budgeting decisions after learning that comrades in Jolo mission had no medevac
A General that has diplomas for project management, has experience in handling a similar insurance company (AFPMBAI) and was described by a 2011 PCIJ profile as idealism personified, perhaps this is why PRRD is taking his time with him.

Now let me show you decades of corruption:
✅In 2015, the DBM Sec. Abad, DOH Sec. Garin, and PhilHealth CEO Padilla illegally diverted PHP10.6-B Philhealth funds for an overpriced barangay health center project that's just 10% complete a year after its extended deadline.

✅According to PACC Commissioner Greco Belgica, PhilHealth has lost more than PHP153 BILLION due to overpayment for total claims and fraud SINCE 2013. Belgica cites non-validation of claims/non-transparency.

✅With that, why don't we ask @risahontiveros why as Philhealth DIRECTOR, she spent on TV ads costing PHP400k/30 second slot.

Let's also ask this former director if Morales alone is capable of stealing billions from Philhealth. Corruption there is worth decades.
If the @HouseofRepsPH and @senatePH want a REAL probe into Philhealth, they shouldn't be shortsighted. Invite EVERY single Philhealth exec who was there since 2010, or even before that. It'll take more than anti-Du30 virtue-signalling to clean PhilHealth's mess now.
