PhilHealth spokesperson Gigi Domingo said the state health insurer welcomes any investigation into alleged anomalies and will cooperate fully.

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque announced that President Duterte has ordered Undersecretary Melchor Quitain to investigate PhilHealth for alleged anomalies, including a P2 billion IT system procurement plan.

Former PhilHealth anti-fraud legal officer Thorrsson Montes Keith recently resigned over 'widespread corruption' and handed his resignation letter to Roque.

Roque urged Keith to assist in the investigation being spearheaded by Quitain.
