Nearly 600 employees of Biliran Province State University (BiPSU) availed the one-year Palawan PROTEKtodo Premium Pamilya insurance in 2025, part of the Provincial Government’s Annual Family Insurance Program. This initiative, led by Governor Gerard Roger M. Espina, aims to provide additional protection to those who serve the government. 

The Palawan ProtekTODO Insurance program, covering individuals aged 17 to 70,  is designed to safeguard both employees and their families, offering coverage for accidents, including death and permanent disability, as well as educational assistance for children of insured individuals. The insurance also provides cash assistance for natural death due to sickness and fire assistance for the insured's home. 

Governor Espina is extending the insurance coverage not only to BiPSU employees but also to staff from other various government agencies in Biliran. 

In his recent facebook post, the governor emphasized, “This initiative will provide our employees with peace of mind, knowing that they and their families will be protected when needed most. Supporting those who serve our community is not merely a gesture of appreciation; it is a responsibility I hold close to my heart,” he posted.

BiPSU President Dr. Victor C. Cañezo Jr. also expressed gratitude for the initiative, "We are thankful to the provincial government for providing this valuable benefit to our employees. This insurance coverage ensures that our faculty and staff, who work tirelessly to support the university’s vision and mission, are better protected," he said.

The provincial governor, in a recent FB post also affirmed his commitment to continuing the program annually, stating, “I will ensure this program continues every year. Together, we are building a Biliran where every leader and every family feels valued, protected, and cared for,” Governor Espina stressed out.
