Frequently Asked Questions (National Health Insurance)

QuestionA child has been born. What should I do to create a Health Insurance Card?

Response

If you cannot be included as a dependent under social insurance, you will need to enroll in the National Health Insurance.
Additionally, if a person enrolled in the National Health Insurance gives birth and is not using the direct payment system for childbirth and childcare lump-sum benefits, they can apply for the childbirth and childcare lump-sum benefit.
The childbirth and childcare lump-sum benefit is provided by the health insurance you are enrolled in on the date of childbirth.
