Real-Time Processing of Contributions (RTPC) is the system that allows SSS to post contributions immediately upon payment. Unlike the older manual posting process, RTPC eliminates long delays and ensures that members can immediately see their posted contributions in My.SSS.
RTPC relies heavily on the Payment Reference Number (PRN), which ensures that each contribution is matched accurately to a member's account. This system helps prevent contribution gaps and reduces errors in employer reporting.
RTPC improves transparency, allowing members to verify their posted contributions promptly. It also ensures that qualifying periods for sickness and maternity benefits are reflected accurately during claim evaluation.
Hospital delivery in the Philippines can easily cost ₱60,000 - ₱200,000 depending on the hospital and type of delivery.
Many parents use a credit card to manage these expenses while waiting for their SSS maternity benefits.
