Local Government Units (LGUs) are setting aside more money for health programs, but a new study warns that weak coordination, reliance on national transfers, and overlapping requirements prevent these funds from being used efficiently.

“We are off to an excellent start this year, and we owe this largely to our business community that has been steadfast in its support and confidence in the city government throughout my term as Makati Mayor,” Binay said.
The awards underscore the commitment of LGUs and agencies to safeguard government properties through insurance coverage, aligning with GSIS’ mandate under Republic Act No. 656, or the Property Insurance Law.
