New Procedures for Sending Patients Abroad
September 13, 2025
The sending of patients abroad will no longer involve favoritism as a new process starts from the Health Insurance Organization. From October 2, the procedures will be incorporated into the General Health System with a team of 140 experts reviewing requests. Doctors will submit these requests electronically. Cases will be classified into three categories with different evaluation times based on severity. The processes and collaborating hospitals will be continuously monitored to ensure quality.
