PINAGBIBITIW ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte si PhilHealth President at CEO Ricardo Morales.
Ito ay ayon kay Department of Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra kung saan sinaalang-alang aniya ng pangulo ang kalusugan ng PhilHealth top official.
“The president took note last night of Morales’ on-and-off health situation, and stated that it would be best for the latter and for PhilHealth to give up his post during these critical times for the agency.”

Magugunitang si Morales ay ilang beses na ring hindi nakadalo sa mga pagdinig ng dalawang kapulungan ng Kongreso dahil siya ay nag-leave of absence matapos ianunsyo na siya’y sumasailalim sa chemotherapy dahil sa lymphoma.
