MATTERS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS MEETING
Report of the President
He informed the Council that in March 2016 he formed a committee headed by UP School of Statistics Dean Dennis Mapa to study the improvement of the health and medical benefits of UP employees. The committee reviewed the historical disposition rate of UP faculty and staff under the existing Financial Assistance Program for Hospitalization Expenses (FAPHE), which provides a limit of PhP200,000 for the entire service of the employee to UP. Regent Gonzalez-Montinola suggested considering the benefit of the FAPHE in that it can accommodate hospitalization assistance up to PhP200,000, if used for the first time.
But the advantage of eHOPE is that the limit resets to PhP80,000 at the beginning of each year, even if the previous year's limit is partially or completely exhausted. She does not want these administration efforts to increase and expand employee benefits to be interpreted differently.
Report of the Faculty Regent
eHOPE is a health benefit program that, like FAPHE, also provides financial assistance to UP employees for hospitalization expenses, but the cap is reset to PhP80,000 annually for each employee. The UP system will allocate the collected funds for UP income projects, such as the UP City Center. President Pascual said that the administration may consider another type of cap in the future, that is for catastrophic diseases, which will be much higher than PhP 80,000.00, but only for certain types of diseases and only after further careful study of the eHOPE experience.
Chairman Pascual said the proposal will be presented to the board for approval after being submitted to faculty and staff for comment.
