Unified Multi-Purpose ID
The Unified Multi-Purpose ID is a Philippine identity card which has been introduced in 2010.[citation needed] The card was developed as a single card for the relations between several government-related agencies. The agency responsible for implementation is the Social Security System (SSS), and also Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth), and the Pag-IBIG Fund (Home Development Mutual Fund) use the card.[1] The card is also suggested to be used as voter's ID.[2]
