Pinaaalalahanan ng Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) ang lahat ng miyembro na  nais lumipat ng kanilang PhilHealth YAKAP Clinic ay maaaring magtungo sa mga PhilHealth Local Health Insurance Office hanggang sa Biyernes, ika-26 ng Disyembre. Ito ay upang matiyak na tuloy tuloy ang pagtanggap ng mga benepisyo sa ilalim ng PhilHealth YAKAP Program. 

Para lumipat sa ibang YAKAP Clinic, mayroon man o walang naganap na First Patient Encounter (FPE), kailangang pumunta ang miyembro o ang kanilang dependent sa pinakamalapit na LHIO upang  magsumite ng nasagutang Primary Care Selection Form (PCSF). Sasailalim din ang mga miyembro sa  beripikasyon gamit ang PhilHealth Check Utility (PCU). Ipapaalam ng PhilHealth sa pamamagitan ng email ang detalye ng paglipat, na magiging epektibo sa oras na maaprubahan ito simula Enero 1, 2026. 

Tatanggap din ang PhilHealth Action Center (02) 866-225-88 ng mga request para sa paglilipat  hanggang Disyembre 31, 2025. 

Pinapayagan din ng PhilHealth ang paglipat sa pamamagitan ng kinatawan, basta’t may dalang  authorization letter, isang valid na government-issued ID (o katumbas na dokumento), at kumpletong  PhilHealth Member Registration Form (PMRF) o PhilHealth Claim Form (PCF), kung kinakailangan. 

Ipinapaalala ng PhilHealth sa mga miyembro na ang mga hindi pa nakakapag-FPE ay maaaring humiling  na lumipat ng provider anumang oras. Kapag naaprubahan, magkakabisa agad ang mga paglilipat na  ito. Para sa mga nakagamit na ng FPE, maaari lamang mag-request ng paglipat tuwing ika-apat na  quarter ng taon (Oktubre hanggang Disyembre).

Ayon kay PhilHealth President at CEO, Dr. Edwin M. Mercado, “Ito ang direktiba ng Pangulong  Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. - na magamit at mailapit ang primary care benefits sa lahat ng Filipino. Ang  bawat miyembro ay may kalayaang pumili ng YAKAP Clinic upang mas madaling magamit ang  benepisyo ng PhilHealth YAKAP. Maaaring ito ay malapit sa kanilang tahanan o trabaho para  masiguro ang kaayusan at kalusugan ng buong pamilya”, wika niya. 

Nag-aalok ang PhilHealth YAKAP ng mga libreng serbisyong pangkalusugan gaya ng regular na checkup, mga laboratory test, cancer screening at mga gamot sa ilalim ng PhilHealth GAMOT (Guaranteed Accessible Medications for Outpatient Treatment).
