Thanks Doc but having ploughed through the post you mention I was unable to find an answer to my question. That was, "what, if any, previsions there are or medical care, hospital in-patients etc, for Filipino citizens who do not have the funds to pay for private attention."

My reason for asking is that a few weeks ago I sent about £600 to pay for some hospital care for my father in law. (he has type 2 diabetes and has leg ulcers/severe inflammation).

Today I paid 156,000P (£2,250) for further care. I want to know if I am being regards as a 'money tree' or if my help is really essential to prevent my father-in-law dying, through lack of care. (he is 64 I am 71, fortunately I have national health care in Spain).
