Check If You Visited the Hospital Often... Average Refund of 1.36 Million Won Per Person

Medical bill refunds.

If you feel like you visited the hospital quite a bit last year, you might want to check if you received a notice from the National Health Insurance Service.

Depending on the conditions, excess amounts can be refunded.

This is known as the medical expense out-of-pocket maximum system.

It is a system that returns the excess amount if the out-of-pocket medical expenses covered by health insurance paid over a year exceed an individual ceiling.

For medical treatments from last year, about 2.26 million people are eligible for refunds.

And the average refund amount per person is 1.36 million won.

If you have pre-registered your payment consent account, it will be paid automatically without a separate application.

If you have not registered it, you must apply directly.

You can apply via the website, app, or phone.
