The legal opinion of the Department of Justice and other relevant agencies is being sought by the technical working group (TWG) tasked to evaluate the proposed transfer of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) to the Office of the President, the Department of Health (DOH) said Tuesday.

The DOH said the TWG had the initial meeting to discuss the preliminary thoughts of both DOH and PhilHealth on the matter.

Vergeire said that “nothing is final yet” and the proposal had to be studied thoroughly, with lawmakers taking part, to determine if the transfer would be appropriate. The technical and strategic merits of the proposed transfer will also be covered in the next TWG meeting, with experts and academic groups encouraged to share their thoughts.
