Benefits for senior citizens
SUMMARY

As provided in our Constitution, the state is duty-bound to recognize the rights of senior citizens by providing support though various social systems. Thus, senior citizens are granted benefits and privileges that range from 20% discount and VAT exemption to mandatory membership in the government’s healthcare system, Philhealth.

This page lists down the benefits, privileges, as well as forms of assistance that can be availed by senior citizens.
