The development comes after President Rodrigo Duterte gave the DBM and the Department of Health 10 days to give the medical frontliners their due benefits and other compensation.
"Our mandate is to find a funding source to cover the requirements of DOH. So initially we already identified that. In fact, during the discussion with the President, I made mention that it will probably be charged against the miscellaneous personnel benefits fund as far as SRA is concerned and probably some of that will be charged in the year budget that could be identified," says Canda.
Canda said these are all still subject to the approval of the President. Once approved, only then can they release the amount.
