What is the Expanded Senior Citizens Act and what benefits does it provide?

A Kalinga PH Team Answered by

The Expanded Senior Citizens Act, also known as RA 9994, offers a range of benefits for senior citizens in the Philippines. These include discounts on medical and dental services, flexible payment terms for utilities, and access to social services. It also allows senior citizens to enjoy discounts on basic commodities, transportation, and recreational services. To understand your specific entitlements under this act, it's best to consult the official government website or speak with a local representative knowledgeable about senior benefits.
