The results will serve as one of the inputs to policies governing professional fees.

This is commissioned by the Secretary of Health and supported by the Philippine College of Surgeons. PCS Officers encourage all members to participate in this study. All practicing physicians in the Philippines are the target respondents. All your responses will be kept private and confidential.
