In the same vein, receipt numbers 630 and 0091, issued by the offices of
Dr. Betty Dy Mancao (Annex “F-40”) and Dr. Copernico J. Villaruel (Annex “F39”) for P300.00 and P400.00, respectively, should be reimbursed to Flores. The
PGH hospital bills do not include the doctors’ fee, thus, it is safe to conclude that
the doctors who attended to Flores billed him personally. x x x

In fine, private respondent is entitled to reimbursement of his medical
expenses totalling P15,373.26.25[25]
In view of the foregoing, respondent should be reimbursed the amount of
P13,579.76, representing the balance of the sickness wages due him, the cost of the
prescribed medicines he purchased, and the surgical expenses he incurred, as
evaluated by the CA.
Petitioners argue that the Receipt and Quitclaim sufficed to cover the
balance of the sickness wages, after deducting the cash advances, which respondent
would be entitled to; while respondent questions the veracity of the said document.
