Online Death Verification System Act
An Act Establishing an Online Death Verification (Odv) System Under the Philippine Statistics Authority (Psa), Thereby Ensuring Government Efficiency and Facilitating the Administration of Justice by Strengthening the Fraud Detection, Prevention and Elimination Capability of the Government
In plain language
The bill creates a national, online database of death records managed by the Philippine Statistics Authority. It lets agencies such as PhilHealth, SSS, GSIS, HDMF, PVAO and COMELEC instantly check whether a person is deceased, helping stop fraudulent claims and “ghost” voters. The system must follow the Data Privacy Act, and violations can lead to prison and fines.
