Mechanism for Paying Health Insurance Payment for Public Hospitals



Author(s): Luong Thi Huyen, Pham Thi Thanh Huong

Abstract:

Despite healthcare insurance being recognized as one of the most important social security policies in modern society, there are still some shortcomings in the current healthcare insurance system. This affects all parties involved, primarily the insured individuals, followed by hospitals - the providers of medical services, and insurance agencies. Finding a balance between the interests of these three parties: Patients (healthcare insurance participants), financial providers (healthcare insurance agencies), and hospitals (providers of medical services) is truly challenging. This leads to ineffective utilization of healthcare insurance resources, unless there are monitoring activities to oversee the use of healthcare insurance resources and the quality of healthcare services provided to insured patients by public hospitals.

This article delves deep into the current payment mechanism for healthcare insurance in public hospitals under the Ministry of Health, highlighting both the advantages and challenges in this system. It also proposes solutions to innovate the payment mechanism for healthcare insurance in public hospitals.
