Payment of Premium Contributions through the Online Payment Facility of the Electronic Premium Remittance System (EPRS)

To ensure compliance in the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018, the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation issued PhilHealth Circular No. 2023-0010 on the Payment of Premium Contribution through the Online Payment Facility of the Electronic Premium Remittance System (EPRS) Revision 1 that aims to streamline services in paying contributions of employers both in the private and government sectors.

To effectively implement this policy, all over-the-counter premium payments from the employed sector shall no longer be accepted at any Accredited Collecting Agent beginning September 2024. All employers are required to utilize the online payment facility in the EPRS for faster acknowledgement and immediate posting of their remittances. 

For employers who were granted exemptions, over-the-counter payments shall be accepted exclusively at PhilHealth offices as supported by the Statement of Premium of Account (SPA) and their valid Certificate of Exemption. All payments made shall be on cash basis or thru Manager's Check only.

Further inquiries may be referred to the nearest PhilHealth Local Health Insurance Office or to the assigned PhilHealth Account Information Management Specialist (PAIMS).

Handling of Unsuccessful Payment Transactions

Please be informed that online payment transactions through the EPRS will not proceed if the employer is not registered/enrolled in the online banking system they have selected. A dialog box with remarks such as "Invalid/Missing PEN" will prompt. This error will not result in a disabled payment option in the EPRS. 

On the other hand, the payment option will not be disabled for unsuccessful transactions through MYEG. The prompt "Errors encountered while sending SPA to MYEG" is due to invalid email address used or connectivity issues. To address this, please check the email address used for the EPRS account or your connection.

For disabled payment option/s with the prompt "SPA already sent for payment" employers shall directly coordinate the cancellation of the SPA to the bank they have selected. Please take note that PhilHealth has no control over employers' transactions with their selected banks. 

For the identified technical issues, below are the e-mail addresses of the ACAs for your reference:

BANCNET / EGOV - csd@bancnetonline.com
SECURITY BANK - digibanker.helpdesk@securitybank.com.ph 
BPI (BizLink) - bizlink@bpi.com.ph 
UNION BANK (OneHub) - business@unionbankph.com  
LANDBANK - Communication through email is not accepted. Employers must go to the LBP branches to request cancellation.

In instances where employer/s were unable to determine which bank they have selected, please send the screenshot of the payment posting indicating the PEN and SPA number for verification of the respective Account Officer.
