Chairman Kim Byoung Hwan of the Financial Services Commission attended an event commemorating the launch of digital indemnity health insurance claims system with related authorities and organizations on October 25. Starting from today, indemnity health insurance policy holders can claim their medical insurance payments online or via mobile app without having to visit hospitals or clinics to get necessary paperwork. Currently, 4,223 hospitals and community health care centers have agreed to participate in the digital indemnity health insurance claims system. Among them, 210 hospitals will begin to provide this service from today. At the event commemorating the launch of this service, FSC Chairman Kim said that it will help to simplify and streamline the insurance claiming process for the public who will no longer need to visit hospitals or face the burden of complicated paperwork. While speaking about the significance of launching the system for the public despite needed improvements, Chairman Kim said that authorities will continue to work with various entities and participants, such as health care service providers, electronic medical record (EMR) service providers, pharmacies, MyData service providers, and the insurance industry, to encourage more participation and increase convenience for service users.
