Contractual Adjustments
A portion of a hospital’s revenue is collectible from third party payors, such as the Philhealth and
other health insurance providers.
A Contractual adjustment is the difference between what the hospital considers a fair price for a service
rendered versus an agreed upon amount for the service with the insurance company.

Illustration : Hospital transactions

charged to Philhealth. It is estimated that only 1,060,000 will be collected. Of the 140,000 difference,
70,000 represent contractual adjustments with Philhealth, 10,000 for employee discounts, 40,000 for
charity care, and 20,000 for uncollectible accounts.
