“The ministry has proposed to amend some content of Article 22, in which patients who seek medical treatment at hospitals or healthcare facilities not at the appropriate technical level or outside the basic level will have two options for health insurance benefits.

In Option 1, patients with health insurance will be reimbursed 60 per cent of inpatient costs and 40 per cent of outpatient costs, except for district-level facilities which will supply 100 per cent for both inpatient and outpatient.

In Option 2, the current provisions will be applied with 100 per cent reimbursement of inpatient treatment costs and no payment for outpatient costs.” – excerpted from VNS.
