QUEZON CITY, METRO MANILA – The online services program of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) can help indigent patients and their families avoid long queues in seeking medical assistance.
“There is a scheduling and follow up process being set online so that there is no need for people to fall in line and wait in hospitals all day,” PCSO general manager Jose “Joy” Rojas said.
The online public service can be accessed at the official website of the PCSO, but most people do not use the service, Rojas said. Thus, there are a lot of people continuing to line up at the PCSO offices and medical institutions.
The online service requires a person to type in his name to get an update of his request for assistance. The PCSO is hoping this will lessen the volume of people visiting the PCSO and other agencies seeking an update on their medical assistance requests.
The beneficiaries of the PCSO charity projects receive up to P20,000 in financial support for each patient for medical expenses. To date, the PCSO has provided some P31.4 billion pesos worth of medical and charity assistance to millions of individuals and institutions all over the country.
But there are still many waiting for medical assistance requests, the PCSO said.
Rojas meanwhile said that the new PCSO management is doing everything it can to raise revenues and sales so that more Filipinos would be given equal opportunity to PCSO health programs.

My father who is 68 years of age is suffering from stroke and confined in St. Magdalene Hospital in San Jose, Occidental MIndoro. His medicine amounting almost 2,000 pesos everyday and these medicines can be bought only from other medical stores outside the hospital meaning we have to use cash to get these medicines.. My mom is a plain housewife and my father is a driver and we are not capable to sustain the daily medicines required by the hospital..As of this date, he is still confined in the hospital.
I am requesting from your good office for a medical assistance..We are seeking for your immediate help.
We will submit all the requirements needed..
Thank you very much and more power..
My dad who is 51 years old is suffering from stroke and confine in Quezon memorial hospital in Lucena city last January 15, 2012. His medicines amounting almost 3500 everyday excluding everyday expenses in the hospital. I just want to inquire if it is possible for us to get a medical assistance from your office. Most of the medicines are not available in said hospital and because of that we need to buy those in the other store outside the hospital, that means we have no way than to pay in cash,unfortunately we are not capable to buy those medicines everyday.Our step mom don’t have work and my dad is just a security guard they have 2 daughters who ages 9 or 10 and 6 or 7 and a boy age 2 0r 3 as of now. We cant provide them their needs as his legitimate children and the only way we can help is to approach your office for their financial assistance aside from giving them the amount that we had but in a span of 1 week our savings was totally gone to support them. Please help my dad for his survival..Any requirements that your office need is willing to submit and we, as his legitimate children is the one who will seek for that because of his second family’s situation. Thank you very much and more power to your office.
