1 st, Duterte’s health sector budget remains low and misallocated. Every year, the budget share of the health sector is much lower compared to the country’s military and infrastructure budget. A large portion of this small budget for health goes to social health insurance and not to direct health services such as the operational budget of several government hospitals and laboratories.
duterte
92
* Second, despite the Duterte administration’s focus on infrastructure projects, there is a glaring lack of health administration’s Infrastructure Flagship Projects (IFPs) infrastructure built. Only four out of 112 of the are dedicated to the health sector, compared to 76 projects dedicated to transport and mobility.
* Even the most basic Barangay Health Station (BHS) is not available for every Filipino since only 49% of the country’s barangays have one. Additionally, not even all BHS can give basic health services because many of them still sorely lack basic equipment and healthcare personnel.
duterte
93
* Third, Filipino healthcare workers remain overworked and underpaid in their own country. Among their biggest issues are low wages and benefits.
* For example, the entry level salary for a public nurse in the country ranges from Php22,000 to Php23,500 while for a public medical technologist it could be from Php25,000 to Php27,000.
* A 2020 study stated that healthcare workers in the Philippines are among the lowest paid across Southeast Asian nations.
* Filipino nurses earn 57% less than their counterparts in Vietnam and 486% less than nurses in Singapore. The dire situation of low wages among health workers in the country pushes scores of
Filipinos to accept job opportunities abroad.

▪Even in the middle of the pandemic, medical front liners were still paid dust compared to the huge service that they have rendered to the Filipino people during the crisis. Filipino health workers called the national government out for its slow disbursement of their risk allowance—which is actually miniscule compared to the needs of healthcare workers to begin with.
▪The government is also not hiring enough health workers despite the huge need, especially in the country’s far-flung areas.
▪Health workers are also unevenly distributed across the country:
