Barangay officials are urged as early as now to drumbeat public awareness and generate participation of their constituents to the upcoming Barangay Assembly in all 42,044 barangays in the country on October 14.
Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) OIC-Secretary Eduardo M. Año enjoins barangays to utilize the social media, particularly Facebook and Twitter, to inform and remind the residents of the activity.
“Social media is far-reaching and nowadays most Filipinos get news and public advisory online. Use this platform as we now embrace e-governance,” he says.
The DILG Chief also urges the public to attend Barangay Assembly in their communities as their “right and responsibility.”
The conduct of Barangay Assembly is mandated by Republic Act No. 7160 or the Local Government Code which states that it should be conducted “at least twice a year to hear and discuss the semestral report of the barangay concerning its activities and finances as well as problems affecting the barangay.”
Año reminds that barangay officials’ failure to conduct Barangay Assembly can be a case for administrative complaint that may be filed by a concerned citizen or governmental or non-governmental entity before the sangguniang panlungsod or sangguniang bayan or to the Office of the Ombudsman.
“To the public, make use of your right to have an interface with your barangay officials on issues that affect your community. To barangay officials, ensure maximum participation and meaningful discussion with your constituents,” he says.
Aside from using social media, Año encourages barangays to do medical or dental mission and cultural presentations to garner higher attendance in Barangay Assembly.
Barangay executives are also told to post or hang Barangay Assembly posters or banners in conspicuous places in the barangay like the barangay hall, plaza, main streets, transport terminals and market or talipapa.
As for DILG field officers, Año directed them to urge barangays to live stream their Barangay Assembly through Facebook Live and post pictures and videos of the assembly in various social media platforms such asFacebook, Twitter, and Instagram using the hashtag #barangayassembly2018 on October 14.
Recognizing exemplary barangays
Meanwhile, DILG Spokesperson, Assistant Secretary Jonathan E. Malaya, disclosed that the Department through its National Barangay Operations Office (NBOO) will be showcasing exemplary barangays.
DILG field offices have been directed to identify before October 5 a barangay in their jurisdiction that is not included in the list of drug affected barangays of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency and has created or reorganized its Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Council (BADAC).
Its BADAC must particularly have a Committee on Operations and Advocacy and an Auxiliary Team. It should have also allocated a substantial portion of barangay's annual budget for anti-illegal drugs programs, projects and activities. It must have established Referral Rehabilitation Desk with a designated duty officer.
“The DILG recognizes that in the exercise of general supervision over local governments, acknowledgment of good performing local government units have a multiplying and motivational effect for others to do the same or do better,” Malaya says.
The theme of the Barangay Assembly on October 14 is “Nagkakaisang komunidad tungo sa Mapayapa, Maunlad at Matiwasay na Barangay!”
Barangay Assembly is held every last Saturday of March and second Sunday of October as per Proclamation No. 260 .# Source – www.dilg.gov.ph

PHILHEALTH FINES, PENALIZES ERRING HOSPITALS
State agency Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) said that it is now imposing fines against erring hospitals instead of outright suspension or revocation of their accreditation in order to ensure that members continue to access health services and avail themselves of their benefits even if these facilities are being made to account for their fraudulent practices.
In accordance to its Board Resolution No. 2334, s-2017 and its implementing guidelines as contained in Corporate Order 2018-0039, PhilHealth can now impose maximum fines on hospitals liable for offenses in administrative cases with PhilHealth.
PhilHealth said that they have at least 71 hospitals nationwide with a combined total of 298 cases currently in arbitration due to various violations such as fraudulent acts and breach of warranties of accreditation/performance commitment, filing of multiple claims, misrepresentation by furnishing false or incorrect information, and claiming for non-admitted patients, among others.
The said policy is in keeping with its commitment to curb fraud and protect its funds from abuse and pilferage without interrupting access to health care services. “We recognize that suspending or revoking a hospital’s accreditation will result to members not being able to avail of their benefits when they or their dependents are admitted in these facilities,” PhilHealth Acting President and CEO Dr. Roy B. Ferrer explained.
However, PhilHealth clarified that their policy of meting maximum fines does not apply to cases against health care professionals; cataract cases through recruitment schemes; cases that are already on appeal with the Courts; and to recidivists or those who have been repeatedly sanctioned for the same offense.
"We are not prevented from suspending or revoking hospital accreditation if truly warranted by circumstances," Ferrer asserted, saying that from 2010 to present they have suspended at least 31 hospitals and revoked the accreditation of another two facilities for violations ranging from extending period of confinement, misrepresentation, claiming for non-admitted patients, among many others.
It was also revealed that for the period 2015 to June 2018, it has detected some 2,000 claims that are tainted with fraud amounting to P17.8 million. For cataract cases due to recruitment schemes alone, a total of 5 facilities and 11 health care professionals with a combined total of 3,673 cases are now up for decision.
The state agency also said that it recently won cases in the Supreme Court and in the Court of Appeals on these cataract cases, upholding its actions against erring providers.
"This should serve as a warning to those who are still into active recruitment of unsuspecting cataract patients who are operated on even in very poor conditions in order to sap unwarranted payments from the National Health Insurance Fund." Ferrer said. # Source - (Rey T.aleña)/PHILHEALTH

DSWD SUPPORTS THE BILL DOUBLING THE SOCIAL PENSION FOR THE INDIGENT SENIORS
The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) expresses its full support to Senate Bill 1865 that seeks to double the amount of social pension for indigent senior citizens from the current P500 to P1,000.
“We fully support the senate bill as it will really be a big help to our poor seniors – one of the sectors which feel the most impact of the increasing prices of our basic commodities,” DSWD Community Programs and Services Bureau Officer-in-Charge (OIC) Director Rosalie D. Dagulo said during a radio interview.
Social Pension for Indigent Senior Citizens (SPISC) is the government’s assistance for poor seniors in the amount of P500 to augment their daily subsistence, including their medical needs.
Being implemented by DSWD, the program started in 2011 through Republic Act (RA) 9994 or the Expanded Senior Citizens Act of 2010 to improve the living condition of eligible indigent senior citizens and to protect them from neglect and deprivation.
Dir. Dagulo acknowledged that indigent seniors in the country are in need for more assistance given that they have no other source of support.
Alam po natin na kasabay ng pagtanda ay ang pagkakaroon ng mga pangangailangan katulad ng gamot, gatas, at iba pang medical services. Kaya naman nais namin matulungan sila sa kanilang mga pangangailangan (We know that need for medicine, milk, and other medical services come along with old age. This is why we want to help augment their daily subsistence). Thus, the Department supports any move to increase the assistance for our older persons,” the Director added.
Authored by Senator Sonny Angara, Senate Bill 1865 also seeks to remove the “frail, sickly or with disability” requirement to qualify for the social pension. This means that, as long as the senior citizen does not have any contributory pension, he or she will be qualified for the social pension. This widens the coverage of beneficiaries to include all poor senior citizens in the country.
RA 9994 specifies that seniors qualified to receive the P500 monthly stipend under the social pension program of the DSWD are those who are frail, sickly or with a disability; without any pension from other government agencies; and without a permanent source of income or source of financial assistance/compensation to support their basic needs.
The DSWD’s social pension program currently covers 3.4 million indigent seniors as of latest report.
Moreover, DSWD Secretary Virginia N. Orogo thanked Sen. Angara for authoring a bill that would provide more aid to indigent seniors, enhancing the social protection system of the country.
“The DSWD welcomes any legislation that intends to provide additional help to our needy sectors, like our indigent older persons. We, in government, have a unified goal to improve or enhance our key social welfare and development programs to ensure that the needed care and assistance for our vulnerable and disadvantaged sectors are provided for,” the Secretary added. # Source – www.dswd.gov.ph

Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) OIC-Secretary Eduardo M. Año calls on the new set of LnB officers to make the 42,044 barangay governments do their duties and functions vested upon them by the law, notably the Local Government Code.
“Kayo pong namamahala sa mga barangay ang pinakamalapit sa mga mamamayan at maalam sa mga suliranin at pangangailangan ng mga komunidad. Kayo ang sumasalamin sa gobyerno. Maging matino, mahusay, at maaasahan po nawa kayo sa inyong sinumpaang paglilingkod-bayan,” Año tells the new LnB officers.
The DILG Chief says that the new Liga officers have a critical role in rallying barangays to be reliable and proactive partners in advancing the government’s priority thrusts on anti-illegal drugs, anti-criminality, and anti-corruption campaigns as well as the campaign for federalism.
Faustino A. Dy, V of Isabela now serves as the new LnB National President succeeding Edmund R. Abesamis.
“Nananawagan po tayo sa mga halal na opisyal sa barangay na maging aktibo sa pagpapatupad ng serbisyo publiko na ramdam ng mamamayan at maging katuwang sa pagkamit ng mga layunin ng nasyunal na pamahalaan,” he urges.
Other new LnB officers are Executive Vice-President Eden C. Pineda, Secretary-General Jorge Daniel S. Bocobo, National Auditor Jose Lorenzo T. Almeda, Vice-President for Luzon James Marty L. Lim, Vice-President for Visayas Celestino A. Martinez III, and Vice-President for Mindanao Edgar R. Ibuyan, Sr.
As for regional LnB chapters, the regional presidents are Mario B. Subagan for Ilocos Region, Victor B. Gines, Jr. for Cagayan Valley, Ramilito B. Capistrano for Central Luzon, Wilfredo M. Maliksi for CALABARZON, Abelardo S. Pangilinan for MIMAROPA, Joseph Philip L. Lee for Bicol Region, Dorothy G. Paes for Western Visayas, Romulo G. Cepedoza for Central Visayas, Ricarte A. Estrella for Eastern Visayas, Rogelio M. Isip for Zamboanga Peninsula, Cesarve C. Siacor for Northern Mindanao, Rustan R. Castillones for Davao Region, Dulia D. Sultan for SOCCSKSARGEN, Gemma P. Tabada for CARAGA, Abdulrashid A. Balindong for Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, Michael L. Lawana for Cordillera Administrative Region, and Joseph William D. Lee for National Capital Region.
Organized, functional barangay units
Año says that among the barangay organizations that must be organized and made functional is the Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Council (BADAC) which plans, strategizes, implements and evaluates programs and projects on drug abuse prevention in the barangay.
Before the May 2018 barangay elections, the DILG filed administrative cases at the Office of the Ombudsman against 16 barangays in Metro Manila and Bicol for their failure of organizing BADACs.
The DILG and Dangerous Drugs Board recently released Joint Memorandum Circular No. 2018-01, the Implementing Guidelines on the Functionality and Effectiveness of Local Anti-Drug Abuse Councils.
The Department also encourages the retention or reappointment of Barangay Violence Against Women (VAW) Desk Persons or Officers, who have been trained by the national or local governments, for the continuous effective handling of VAW and children cases.
As for the anti-corruption mechanism, the DILG says it is closely monitoring the compliance to the Barangay Full Disclosure Policy which requires the posting of barangay budget, statement of income and expenditures and other barangay financial transactions and annual procurement plan in an area inside the barangay hall that can be easily viewed by the public.
DILG Spokesperson, Assistant Secretary Jonathan E. Malaya, says the barangays are the most important partners for a grassroots, wide-reaching advocacy for a correct public information on the proposed shift of Philippine governance to federalism.
“Next month po ay Barangay Assembly na muli. Dalawang beses lang ito sa isang taon. Sikapin po ninyo sa inyong barangay na dumalo ang mga residente sa Assembly kung saan tatalakayin ang mahahalagang usaping dapat nilang malaman at mabigyang boses,” Malaya says.

DILG URGES BARANGAY LEADERS TO CONDUCT ACCREDITATION OF COMMUNITY-BASED NGOS
The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) urges punong barangays, sangguniang barangay (SB) members to conduct accreditation of barangay-based non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to ensure their participation in barangay governance and development process.
DILG OIC-Secretary Eduardo M. Año says barangay officials must be proactive in ensuring all NGOs within the barangay are accredited for proper accounting and representation in the Barangay Development Council (BDC) and other barangay-based institutions (BBIs).
"As partners of the government in its pursuit for progress, NGOs play a crucial part in delivering services to the people, especially in the grassroots level. And as such, it is imperative that they are accredited to formalize their operation in the barangay and for their voice to be heard in the BDC, BBIs," Año explains.
"The punong barangay, SB must therefore carefully enforce their mandated functions of accrediting barangay-based NGOs under their jurisdiction," he adds.
Under Article 64 (a) of the Local Government Code, within 30 days from the organization of the newly elected sanggunian, each sanggunian concerned shall call all community-based people's organizations or NGOs, including business and professional groups, to apply with the same LGU concerned for accreditation for membership in the local special bodies.
Accreditation process
In a directive recently released by DILG, punong barangays and SBs are enjoined to ensure participation of NGOs by undertaking information campaign and to encourage all barangay-based NGOs participation in the accreditation and selection process.
According to the DILG Chief, all community-based NGOs, whether previously accredited or seeking accreditation for the first time, shall be handed with the Notice of Call for Application and Accreditation. The same Notice shall be posted in three conspicuous areas of the barangay, on social and print media or on the Barangay website, if available.
The SB, through the Barangay Secretary, shall then prepare the list or directory of interested NGOs containing the name of the organization, contact information of the Head of the Organization, and services offered, among others.
Interested parties are requested to submit a letter of application for accreditation, and the accomplished Application and Accreditation Form (AAF) to the SB with the inclusion of Certificate of Registration issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, list of current officers, and the annual accomplishment report and financial statement for the immediately preceding year.
"Failure to submit all the requirements shall cause the denial of the NGOs accreditation which is why it is important for them to produce all of the supporting documents. Ngunit maaari pa din naman nilang ipasa ang mga requirements basta makumpleto nila," Año says.
The SB will then pass an Ordinance or Resolution setting the additional criteria, if necessary; set the day for the conduct of assessment and evaluation; assess and evaluate the submitted AAF and other requirements; and direct the Barangay Secretary to document the assessment and evaluation process.
Participating NGOs will then be notified by the Punong Barangay regarding the status of their application for accreditation. Qualified NGOs will be issued with a Certificate of Accreditation indicating the concerned BBI to be represented.
In the same directive, it is stipulated that as much as practicable, only one NGO per sector will be accredited. In the event that there are multiple applicants catering services to the same sector, heads of those NGOs must convene to elect a leader among themselves.
The DILG Chief also reminds interested NGOs and the barangay officials that the accreditation process shall not cost anything hence "collection of any amount in connection to the accreditation shall be subjected to appropriate sanctions, in accordance with the law". # Source – www.dilg.gov.ph
