When a loved one is hospitalized, the financial burden can feel just as heavy as the medical one. Fortunately, there are various government programs and offices designed to provide medical assistance through Guarantee Letters (GL).
If you are currently navigating this process, here is a consolidated guide to the requirements and a directory of offices you can reach out to for support.
For email requests, here's How to Write a Guarantee Letter (GL) Request Email for Medical Assistance
Requirements
Before approaching any senator or partylist office, it is crucial to have your paperwork in order. Being prepared speeds up the processing time significantly.
Prepare these documents in advance:
- Medical Certificate/Clinical Abstract: Must include the attending physician's signature and license number.
- Barangay Certificate of Indigency: Proves your residency and financial status.
- Valid IDs: Provide copies for both the patient and the person processing the request.
- Statement of Account (SOA) or Running Bill: Essential if the funds are for hospital admission costs.
- Prescription: Required if you are requesting assistance for medicines.
- Laboratory Request & Price Quotation: Necessary for dialysis, chemotherapy, or diagnostic tests.
- Request Letter: A formal letter addressed to the specific official. It should clearly state the patient’s condition and the specific assistance needed.
- Authorization Letter: Mandatory if the patient is not the one personally submitting the documents.
- Social Case Study: While not required by every office, it is highly recommended to have one prepared from your local Social Welfare office.

Tips
Be Organized: Keep copies of all your documents. When requesting aid, create a "master folder" containing all originals and photocopies so you are ready no matter which office you visit.
Follow Up: Government offices are often overwhelmed. If you haven't received a response after a reasonable timeframe, don't hesitate to follow up respectfully via email or by visiting their local assistance desk.
Check Local Officials: Don't forget to visit your local City/Municipal Hall, Mayor’s Office, or Provincial Capitol. They often have their own medical assistance budgets that are faster to process because they are closer to home.
