IT and Business Process Association of the Philippines (IBPAP) President and CEO Jack Madrid told the press that the industry is โ€œclosely reviewingโ€ the recently proposed Keep Call Centers in America Act of 2025 and its potential implications for the industry.

Madrid said the US is still the Philippine IT-BPM industryโ€™s largest client base as it contributes roughly two-thirds of the sectorโ€™s revenues in 2024, or approximately $25 billion.

Firms and other stakeholders in the Philippine IT and Business Process Management (IT-BPM) industry will see to it that the sector is prepared for any changes in international regulations.

(๐—œ๐—ฅ๐—ฆ๐—ฆ๐—œ) showed that forcing the onshoring of outsourced hospital call centers could increase US healthcare operational costs by as much as $166 billion a year.

Joey Sarte Salceda, chair of IRSSI shared this analysis in a letter he sent to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. โ€œWith typical pass-through rates of 60 to 90%, this would raise US healthcare bills for patients and insurers by tens of billions of dollars every year".

As for mortgage servicing, onshoring would add $97.76 billion per year in costs for servicers currently outsourcing. โ€œSpread across approximately 50 million active mortgages, this translates to an additional $1,955 annually or $163 monthly per mortgage. Both instances highlight that outsourcing to the Philippines functions as a โ€œcost-controlโ€ measure for Americans, not just a โ€œlabor arbitrageโ€ for companies.
