Premium Subsidies
The government routinely subsidizes premiums for
several impoverished and socially disadvantaged groups,
such as low-income households, the near poor, unemployed
veterans, unemployed workers and their dependents, people
with disabilities, and unemployed indigenous people younger
than 20 or over 55. A total of NT$21.9 billion in premium
subsidies was disbursed to 2.58million people in 2012.
Relief Loans
Interest-free loans are provided to people facing economic
hardship to make it possible for them to pay their premiums
or unpaid out-of-pocket medical expenses and safeguard their
right to care. In 2002, NT$214 million in loans was disbursed
to 3,589 people.
Installment Plans
Another 130,000 individuals who did not qualify for relief
loans and could not clear overdue premiums of NT$2,000 or
more in one lump sum payment were granted permission in
2012
to repayNT$3.18 billion in installments.
Sponsorship Referrals
The NHIA may also refer people who cannot afford
their premiums to charitable organizations or philanthropic
corporations or individuals for assistance. Some 4,755 people
were successfully referred to charitable groups, which covered
NT$22.74million in premiums in 2012.
