What are YAKAP & GAMOT
• YAKAP stands for Yaman ng Kalusugan — PhilHealth’s expanded health package combining Konsulta, medicines, screenings, diagnostics etc. 
• GAMOT is a component of YAKAP: free outpatient medicines (75 essential drugs) worth up to ₱20,000/year for each beneficiary.

Steps to Register & Avail GAMOT under YAKAP
Below are the steps to (a) register under YAKAP, (b) visit a YAKAP clinic, (c) get prescription from GAMOT, and (d) claim medicines.
⸻
Step 1: Pre-Registration / Choose YAKAP Clinic
1. Get a PhilHealth Identification Number (PIN)
If you’re already a PhilHealth member, ensure you have your PIN. If not, you need to acquire one. 
2. Pick a YAKAP Clinic of your choice
There are many YAKAP-accredited clinics all over the country. You can check clinics via the PhilHealth YAKAP website. 
3. Register as a YAKAP member
You can do this in any of these ways:
• Through the eGovPH App 
• Through the PhilHealth Member Portal 
• Directly at any PhilHealth office nationwide 
• Directly at your chosen YAKAP Clinic 
4. Make sure your records are updated
Having accurate personal data (name, address, contact) helps avoid complications.

Step 2: Visit the YAKAP Clinic / Medical Assessment
5. Go to the YAKAP Clinic you registered with
• Undergo a medical assessment by the primary care doctor. This could involve routine check-ups, examinations, or diagnostic tests if needed. 
• During this visit, if it is medically necessary, the doctor will issue a GAMOT prescription slip with a Unique Prescription Security Code (UPSC). 
⸻
Step 3: Get Your Medicines (GAMOT)
6. Claim your medicine at a GAMOT Facility
• Bring the GAMOT prescription slip (with the UPSC) from your YAKAP doctor. 
• Also bring a valid government-issued ID. 
• Go to the nearest accredited GAMOT facility / pharmacy. Present the prescription + ID. 
7. Receive your medicines up to the limit
• The benefit allows you to get medicines (from the 75 essential drugs list) worth up to ₱20,000 per year. 
• The medicines must be from the GAMOT list. If your required drug is not on the list, it might not be covered. 
⸻
Step 4: Other Important Notes & Tips
• The clinic you register with should be accredited under YAKAP. Not all health facilities are yet. 
• The GAMOT facility (the pharmacy/drugstore) should also be accredited. Check the list of accredited GAMOT providers. 
• Keep copies of your prescription, your ID, and proof of membership to avoid delays.
• Be aware of the ailments / medicines covered — the list is fixed (there are 75 essential medicines).
