B. People with catastrophic illnesses:
1.
The 30 catastrophic illnesses recognized by the Ministry
of Health and Welfare, including cancer, chronic mental
disorders, chronic renal failure requiring kidney dialysis
and congenital conditions, are all very costly to treat.
Insured individuals with a catastrophic-disease card are
exempt fromco-payments for treatment of their disease.
2.
As of the end of December 2012, just over 890,000
people (or about 3.86%of all those insured) were holding
960,000
valid catastrophic illness cards. The treatment
they received in 2012 cost NT$155.8 billion, or 27.56%
of all NHI expenditures. Roughly NT$40 billion a year
is spent on medication for patients with catastrophic
illnesses, nearly 30%of the total amount the NHI system
spends on drugs. These spending levels are an indication
of the system’s commitment to helping those with major
ailments.
