The government is pushing for a plan to significantly increase the out-of-pocket costs for non-payment treatment that is unnecessarily carried out, such as manual treatment.

At a policy discussion on non-payment management and loss insurance reform held at the Korea Press Center today (9th), the government announced that it will apply the out-of-pocket ratio to 90-95% for non-payment items that are highly likely to be abused.

If you provide non-benefit treatment such as beauty and plastic surgery and provide benefits to claim loss insurance, we will also push for a limit on the benefits of parallel medical treatment that requires you to pay for the benefits.

In addition, in the case of severe patients such as cancer, cerebrovascular, and rare diseases, it was decided to maintain the current rate instead of increasing the self-burden rate of loss insurance for general patients in benefit treatment.

If the reform plan is confirmed, it is expected that the burden of non-severe benefits and non-payment treatment will increase or not be guaranteed at all for newly released or renewed loss insurance subscribers.
