8,000 health cards undistributed in Bacolod
Manila Bulletin
|August 21, 2025
Mayor Greg Gasataya announced on Monday that 7,978 Bacolod Comprehensive Health Program (BacCHP) cards were undistributed during the term of former Mayor Albee Benitez.
In a press briefing, Gasataya expressed concern over the unreleased cards that cost the city P120 each to print.
“Tt’s very unfortunate when I found out two to three weeks ago that there were thousands of BacCHP cards that were not released,” the mayor said. Thirteen cards were found to be duplicates.
Gasataya questioned why the cards were not released to beneficiaries despite being fully printed and ready for distribution.
