Guide on GSIS COVID-19 Claims Requirements “If Hospitalized”
GSIS COVID-19 CLAIMS – Here is a list of the requirements for the hospitalized members to get Employees Compensation COVID-19 Claims.
The Philippines is one of the countries hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. The nation is still amid the tough fight and the whole country remains under community quarantine measures. Every day, there are still new cases of the disease.
PH recorded cases of the mutated variants of COVID-19. Previously, the whole Luzon was placed under the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) measure in the pursuit to prevent the spread of the Delta variant, a variant of concern for its higher transmissibility rate. Currently, the capital region is under localized lockdowns.
The national government continuously calls for government agencies to provide the help they can to the people. In the case of the Government Service Insurance System, members infected by coronavirus may apply for GSIS COVID-19 claims.
There are documents that you need to prepare in applying for GSIS COVID-19 claims. Here is a list of the requirements for employee-members who were “hospitalized”:
