Starting this year, Filipinos in the UAE and across the world are required to pay three per cent of their income(salary) to the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth), the authority reiterated in its latest circular.

PhilHealth said expats’ three per cent premium rate will be computed based on their monthly pay, with the range set at P10,000 (Dh730) to P60,000 (Dh4,385).
If one’s monthly salary is higher than Dh4,385, the individual will still pay P1,800 (Dh132) every month, or the three per cent of the income ceiling.
For an entire year, an expat earning Dh4,385 or more will have to shell out P21,600 (Dh1,579).
