Recognition for service efficiency
While these reforms were happening, PhilHealth offices were recognized for service efficiency and quality by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) and by members who visit offices for various concerns. Several offices have garnered citations, commendations and awards from the CSC for consistent efficiency in service delivery, considered the pillars of genuine, dedicated public service.
