Foreigners receive the same insurance benefits as Koreans do for the health services they use. As insurance benefits, an insured person pays 20~50 percent of the medical cost at a hospital or clinic and 30 percent of the drug cost at a pharmacy.
Insurance Fees
A monthly insurance fee is calculated by the following method. Monthly premium = monthly wage x contribution rate (5% of monthly salary is paid as an insurance fee and the employer pays 50% of the amount). For the insured employee, the obligation of payment of the insurance fee is retroactive to the date when employment commenced. For self-employed insurance, obligation of payment of the insurance fee is retroactive to the date when the individual was registered as a foreigner in Korea.
