SUBJECT: korean national health insurance system
1. Summary: although health care in korea technically allows
access to all, like other aspects of korean society, it is
over-regulated and actual care depends to a large extent on
personal connections and ability to pay. The system is unique
in that health care providers, who are 87 percent privately
owned and operated for profit, are serving a population which
is covered by publicly-regulated compulsory health care
insurance. The low, government-regulated fees lead physicians
to treat too many patients, too quickly, and to induce
recurrent patient visits in order to generate income. The high
coinsurance rates applied irrespective of family income create
inequity not normally found in national health care systems and
the duplication of administrative effort among the 424 separate
insurance societies is inefficient and costly. Finally,
failure to reimburse for high-cost procedures and some
expensive drugs has limited care available to the poor and led
to trade friction with the U.S. End summary.
overview
3. Korea's national health insurance system became universal
in july 1989. This government-mandated, compulsory insurance
system pays for services provided by predominantly private,
profit-oriented health care providers. Insurance is funded by
cooperative societies consisting of employees or neighbors who
pay mandatory premiums on a cost-sharing basis with employers
OI local government. Government regulation of fees charged by
providers keeps the provider fees artificially low, enabling
the program to function on a self-supporting basis. Universal
availability of coverage is the program's strength; the
limitations on coverage and the quality of care are its
greatest weaknesses.
History
4. The medical insurance act, promulgated in 1963 was the
first law desiged to promote health insurance coverage in
kore. After 14 years of voluntary compliance, the lawwas
changed in 1976 to make membership in an insurance society
compulsory in companies with 500 or more employees. Gradually
mandatory membership was extended to small companies, civil
servants, school teachers and finally, fishermen, farmers, and
the self-employed. Since july 1989, every citizen able to pay
a premium is included in the basic program. The indigent,
approximately 10 percent of the population, are covered by the
federally funded medical aid program.
PAGE 1 of 7
Insurance cooperative organizational system
5. The backbone of the health care system are the insurance
cooperatives formed at workplaces or in neighborhoods. These
cooperatives, called insurance associations or societies,
collect mandatory premiums, based on a percentage of salary, to
form a fund from which the medical claims of its members are
paid. The investment of funds is regulated by law and limited
to savings accounts. The average contribution, 3.19 Percent of
salary, is shared equally by employee and employer.
6. In the neighborhood model, the premiums are based on family
assets and are shared equally with the local government.
Although each town or company may have its own insurance
association, the benefits and premiums are standardized and
regulated by presidential decree and the medical insurance
act. There are presently 154 insurance cooperatives formed by
private company employees, 266 regional societies and one for
c:vil servants and private school teachers.
7 The insurance societies are administratively and
unclassified
unclassified
financially independent. Governed by boards of directors,
oversight is provided by the korean medical insurance
corporation and the federation of korean medical insurance
societies. The operations of these bodies are closely
monitored by the national federation of medical insurance
(nfmi), a quasi-governmental agency which reviews all claims
from the medical facilites, effects payment, and designates
medical facilites for services to the insured. All societies
are under the guidance of the minister of health and social
affairs. Nfmi conducts audits biannually.
8. These self-governing insurance cooperatives are divided
into three organizational categories:
a. Industrial establishment medical insurance societies cover
companies with 5 or more workers. Seasonal and temporary
workers are excluded. This category covers 16 million workers
and family members and accounts for 40 percent of the population.
B. Government/private school employees medical insurance cover
civil servants, private school employees, and military
families. Representing 11 percent of the population, this
group numbers over 4 million.
C. Regional medical insurance societies cover residents, based
or geographical affinity, who are not included in either of the
above groups. Farmers, fishermen the self-employed, and
pensioners are in this group which numbers over 19 million and
represents 49 percent of the population.

9. Comment: oriental medicine is still a major component of
medical treatment in korea, though actual figures are unknown.
It: is covered by the insurance system. End comment.
Persons covered
10. Employees and their dependents are covered. The
definition of dependent is broad and includes spouses, direct
lineal ascendants and descendants, spouses of the descendents
and brothers and sisters who are dependent on the employee's
income.
11. Although a korean citizen is always covered, it may be by
different section of the overall scheme. For example, if an
employee loses his job or retires, he must then withdraw his
contributions from his employee group and join the association
which is based on residence rather than workplace.
Benefits
unclassified
unclassified
12. The extent and level of benefit coverage is determined by
the government and is limited to basic health care. Most
outpatient services and high-probability inpatient services are
covered. However, many of the low-probability but high-cost
sarvices are excluded. These nonreimbursable services are
typically high-tech, diagnostic-testing procedures such as cat
scans, sonograms or mris. Sophisticated, expensive medicines
are not covered by the plan. (Comment: one doctor described
the coverage as a level lower than medicaid. End comment)
13. Cost-sharing features are included in all services. There
is a flat fee and coinsurance percentage paid at the time of
service. For example, a fee of usd 3 is paid for each
physician visit. In addition to the fee, the patient pays 30
percent coinsurance for outpatient clinic services, 55 percent
for general hospital outpatient services. The coinsurance rate
for inpatient services is 20 percent. Hospital stays are
limited to 180 days. Oriental medicine clinics and funeral
benefits are also covered.
14. Benefits are suspended while serving in the military,
while traveling overseas or when imprisoned. Benefits are also
limited when another insurer has primary responsibility, for
example, in an auto accident, the automobile insurance company
would pay the expenses.
Implementation
15. The patient must first see a primary care physician to get
page 3 of 7
a referral before consulting a specialist. The patient is
further limited in his choice of providers by mandatory
utilization of services in his assigned geographical region.
Korea is divided into 142 primary-care geographical regions and
8 larger secondary units. A referral from a primary-care
facility in the assigned region is necessary before a
specialist may be consulted or facilities in the secondary
region can be utilized. If specialized services are sought
outside the secondary region, the permission of the insurance
society must first be granted.
l6. According to the data provided by the nfmi, the national
health insurance plan is self-supporting. Contributions
account for 89.4 Percent of the income, with miscellaneous
irflow accounting for 10.6 Percent. The expenditures for
benefits are 80 percent of the budget, administrative expenses
are 5.5 Percent and other expenses are 14.4 Percent. The
crkg's contributions to the neighborhood insurance societies
and miscellaneous administrative costs totalled usd 11,231
million or about 4 percent of gdp in 1992. The government
regulation of provider costs and severe limitation of services
coupled with high coinsurance payments make the program less
costly than similar programs in other countries.
Unclassified

two doctors comment
17. According to the director of dongseoul hospital, a private
90-bed hospital, the positive aspect of the national medical
system is that all citizens are offered medical coverage. The
weaknesses of the system, in his view, affect the medical
professionals themselves.
18. The fees for services were first established in 1977 and
have not kept pace with inflation. The hospital or doctor is
reimbursed per service, regardless of the time spent with the
patient. The fees cover the cost of care only when there are
sufficient numbers of patients to offer economies of scale.
According to the director, the medicine practiced in korea is
presently at an international standard, but his prognosis for
the future is bleak. He feels the emphasis on quantity will
lead to a lower quality of medicine.
19. The dongseoul hospital earns 70 percent of its income from
national health insurance cases. The remaining cases are
either private or from automobile accidents where the
automobile insurace pays. The fees for private patients are
unregulated, market-driven and higher than the government
regulated fees.
20. An american physician practicing at a 1,500 bed university
hospital in seoul, calls the health care system a "dinosuar
with arteriosclerosis." He says the coverage is too limited
page 4 of 7
home. Because the hospital's income is based on number of
patients served, the hospital has no incentive to move patients
home. Another weakness in the system is payment to physicians
based on number of patients seen. If a doctor wants to make
more money, he sees more patients than he can treat
effectively. This overconsumption of services and lack of
control over number of patients seen leads to clogging of the
entire system -- the arteriosclerosis.
Kemia -- a medical insurance association mcdel
21. Kemia, korean employees' medical insurance association, is
the insurer for 400 U.S. Embassy foreign service nationals
(fsns) and 900 of their family members. Founded voluntarily in
april 1981, (prior to compulsary coverage) it is governed by a
1"-member board of directors who are elected every two years.
Unclassified
unclassified
the association employs a full-time manager and one full-time
secretary. Monthly financial reports are monitored by embassy
financial management (fmc). The ministry of health and social
adfairs audits the fund every two years.
22. The present fund contains 300,000,000 won (usd 375,000)
which is deposited in a savings account bearing 13 percent
interest. Each employee pays 1.5 Percent of his salary to the
fund (payroll deduction) with the embassy contributing a
matching 1.5 Percent. Rokg mandate sets contributions at
between 3-8 percent.
23. Every month kemia deposits 120 percent of the average
monthly amount claimed in the previous quarter with the
national federation of medical insurance (nfmi) to create a
working fund. The hospital or health care provider then bills
nfmi directly; the association is debited; and the provider is
paid. The exact nature of the claim and billing information is
passed from nfmi to the association for oversight control. If
charges seem excessive, an appeal is made to the hospital by
the association. A list of usual and customary charges is
published annually by nfmi.
24. Every year seven percent of the association fund is
contributed to the nfmi stabilization fund. Any individual
claim in excess of 900,000 won (usdl, 125) is paid by this
fund. Thus, nationwide, no individual insurance association is
responsible for individual claims larger than 900,000 won.
Comment: how the system really works
25. Coverage in korea may be "universal," but it is hardly
equally available to everyone. Access to care, as with other
facets of korean life (such as what school you attend and where
page 5 of 7
you get a job), depends to a large extent on who you know or
how much you can pay. Burdensome regulations make it
impossible to do business the way the system is written and
numerous informal mechanisms have grown up to work around the
restrictions.
25. There are a small number of highly-qualified, well-
educated doctors and a few really well-equipped hospitals.
Mach of the rest of the system operates at a level below that
of most cecd countries. All-important cld-school ties cften
instate whether you see one of the best er even whether you
know who the best are. Well-heeled citizens pay premium prices
for private services and sometimes travel to the U.S. Or japan
for complex treatment or surgery. However, the majority of
koreans -- still relatively unsophisticated consumers of such
services -- demand only that health care be univerally
available, not that it be good.
Unclassified
unclassified
27. Hospitals naturally prefer to focus on the more lucrative
private market and have been known to turn away patients. The
embassy is aware of one accident victim who sought emergency
reatment in three hospitals before finding one that would
accept him. Although nurses administer shots and keep
temperature charts, they do none of the patient aid work. The
family plays an indisensible role in hospital care by providing
almost all primary nursing care. Family members tend to move
into the hospital rooms and usually supplement meals.
28. In the past it has been common practice for private
doctors to receive either cash or in-kind payments in exchange
for approving a given drug for use by a hospital staff.
(Doctors at public hospitals are considered government
employees and cash payments to them are illegal under korean
law.) Similar payment arrangements exist between equipment
manufacturers and hospitals and clinics. (These payment have
recently become a target of the rokg's anti-corruption campaign.)
29. There is some anecdotal evidence of growing frustration
with the level of health care available to most citizens. The
targets of the anti-corruption campaign are to a certain extent
guided by press and public calls for reform, 50 the focus of
the auditors on the drug reimbursement system is an overt sign
OF dissatisfaction with the system. Consumers complain
privately that there is no effective way to challenge the
system. Doctors don't share diagnoses and cultural traditions
prevent patients from pressing for more information. Even with
information about a case, the legal malpractice system is
underdeveloped and offers little opportunity for recourse.
page 6 of 7
troubles on the trade front
30. The U.S. Has run up against the rigidity of the korean
reimbursement system in at least one instance. Citing the
limitations outlined in paragraphs 11-13, the medical insurance
federation (nfmi) has refused to reimburse the usual 80 percent
01 the cost of an antihemophiliac clotting factor (ahf)
produced by the american pharmaceuticals firm baxter. The nfmi
has ruled that the baxter product may only be reimbursed at 50
percent of the prine of 3 similar dimestic product. That is,
out of a cost of 132,000 won, the insurance system will pay
only 41, 710 won

Lt. Col. Shortal
(Shortal is the JSA commander and responsible for
this visit. He will enter when he can.) From the
tower you are 100 yards from North Korea. A short
distance away, North Korea makes up 270 degrees of
your vista including the Propaganda Village.
After the briefing the President will exit the
bunker area. He will join two young soldiers who
will further point out North Korean postions as
they walk down the hill toward the press. A
wireless mic is planned for this short segment.
(The picture backdrop is camouflage bunkers and a
tall observation tower).
Another soldier will be positioned in a sandbag
bunker. Seeing the lone soldier, the President
should engage him. He can
step into the bunker area, and two other soldiers
can fall in after a few moments and continue to
engage the President on the North Korean vista.
Binoculars will be available if anyone would like
to use them.
(The picture is a medium shot with the President
and three soldiers standing behind a four foot sand
bag bunker. Faces can be made out well and the
background should be a white Gothic cloudy sky --
or it will be raining.)
The President will head back up the short hill and
hold for ten minutes while the press is relocated
to the next site.
The President and HMMWV motorcade will depart for
"The Bridge of No Return."
(The picture of the motorcade arriving is a dense
zoom lens shot of the HMMWV's coming down a one-
lane road with high foliage and vegetation on
either side. As the HMMWV's loop in for the
arrival, the camera tightens on President Clinton's
HMMWV (with the President in the front passenger
seat) until you can clearly see him through the
windshield -- low on the windshield, the black
stencil will simply say "United States.")

The President will be met by a soldier who will
take him out onto the bridge. A few soldiers will
be posted on the bridge. The soldiers won't be at
full attention and the president can and should
engage them. The President will stay out there
about ten minutes. The President is on a wireless
mic for this segment.
(The picture will be a long semi-wide shot with a
rusted DMZ sign in the foreground)
As the President walks back a couple of soldiers
will gather around a DMZ sign. They should talk
near the sign without blocking it from the camera
angle.
Note: There is a monument at the site of the ax
murder of Captain Bonifas, who was killed by North
Koreans during a tree cutting operation. The
President is welcome to ask a soldier to take him
over there. The President will be able to clearly
see a North Korean guard tower 300 meters in front
of him.
(The picture would be the President standing with a
soldier reading a plaque on the monument. The
North Korean guard tower is in the middle in the
background.)
The President's motorcade will then depart back to
the Monastery to hold for ten minutes while the
press loads. The President will then leave for.

PROCESSION OF THE ROYAL PALANQUIN
21. Om X 3.19m
WEST WALL OF THE MAIN LOBBY, Bluettouse
The existing paintings of the royal procession date back from the
reigns of King Jungjo (1776-1800) and King Kojong (1863-1907), in
the Chosun Dynasty. Though the formation of the royal processions
differed from one period to another, they all included officials
and servants of the various government branches. The horses were
mobilized from military units and made a grandiose impression. The
"PROCESSION OF THE ROYAL PALANQUIN" in the Blue House is the work
of Yu Yang Ock. The human figures in the scene number 488. The king
and the queen are not depicted here in order to signify the
separation of the royal family from the common people. The
procession is led by the pole bearers, followed by the musicians,
the royal flag with the dragon emblem, the queen's palanquin, the
king's horse, the court ladies and military escorts. Some horsemen
are seen riding against the flow of the procession to help
communication between its two flanks.

The sun and the moon and the Mystic Mountain are the subjects of
this painting by Song Kyu Tay, in which the pines, the waterfall
and the seas are equally beautifully depicted. This type of
painting was used to decorate the area behind the royal throne. The
sun symbolizes the king, the moon the queen. The Mystic Mountain
which, in the Taoist legend, is the most holy mountain under the
sky, signifies the majesty of the royal family. Traditional beliefs
associate the sun, the moon, the pines, the seas and the rocks with
longevity. The picture conveys the hope for the prosperity of the
royal family and the nation through the blessing of the gods of
heaven, the earth and all living creatures. This kind of painting
can be seen behind the royal thrones of the three existing Chosun
Dynasty palaces including Kyungbok Palace.

The initial Korean script, "Hoon Min Jong Um," was created by half

three years later. The original text of the "Hoon Min Jong Um" is

EAST WALL OF THE MAIN LOBBY / Bluethouse
Based on the "Hunting Picture" of the Kokuryo Kingdom (53-668)
found in Kirin Province, China, this painting depicts five
Kokuryo warriors on horseback gallantly shooting at tigers and
deer. Highly artistic in style, this picture renders a very
original image of the galloping horses and mountains. In this work,
the painter, Kim Shick, the painter portrays the spirit and the
bravery of the Korean people while at the same time showing the
bows, the quivers, the wing-shaped headgear and the attire of the
warriors at that time.

One of the most precise old maps of Korea was made by Kim Joung Ho
in 1816 and is now designated as a National Treasure. There also
have been beautiful maps of Seoul made since the 18th century that
use landscape painting in the drawing of maps. This map painting
by Kim Shick is based on the famous map by Kim Joung Ho and adds
the picturesque style of a landscape painting, thus showing the
creativity and the unique nature of ancient Korean map making.

The palace grounds are frequented daily by Korean citizens,
particularly on Saturday afternoons and Sundays.
Schoolchildren come in groups, clad in their shorts, hats, and
backpacks, grandmothers, sporting sunvisors so as to avoid the
sun, come from far-off areas by the busload. Newlyweds come to
the palace grounds in their wedding dresses and tuxedos for
formal photographs. Fathers bring their families to the palace
grounds to enjoy a peaceful moment away from the hustle and
bustle of Seoul city life.
Also located on the palace grounds are the National Museum and
the National Folklore Museum. The National Museum boasts a
large collection of Korean celadon (the national ceramicware)
as well as royal artifacts. The Folklore Museum houses a
number of articles used by commoners in everyday life. These

Eliquette guidelines
Japanese are a very polite people and social manners are
strictly followed. Fortunately, foreigners are not
expected to know all the nuances of Japanese etiquette and
mistakes are readily excused and, in ract, even expected.
The foreigner who makes an attempt to observe the basics,
however, delights most JapanesH and makes a very favorable
impression. Although a few rules are unusual, most are
governed by common sense. When in doubt, ask or observe
what is happening around you. Below are some tips:
Dining:
Chopsticks are usually set at Japanese meals. (Foreign
style meals will have knife and fork.) Although it looks
good to make the effort, it you have two left hands ask
for the Western utensils. They are almost always
available, particularly when it is known in advance
foreigners will be present.
-- When not using chopsticks leave them on a small
chopstick rest by the dishes. NEVER stick them in the
rice (it looks like incense sticks at a Buddhist funeral
ceremony). Tr you take food out of a larger common dish,
turn your chopsticks around and use the larger ends that
have not been in your mouth to remove the food. When
eating, or course, turn the ends around again to the
original way.
-- NEVER pour soy sauce on rice.
--- Do not begin eating until the host/hostess starts.
There ic usually a toast at the start of a formal meal.
-- it is perfectly acceptable to eat noisily and in fact
eating too quictly in some Japanese eyes may mean you are
not really enjoying your meal. Soup or noodles are
usually consumed with appropriate slurping noises.
-- At a Japanese style meal it is acceptable to hold the
dish close to the mouth thus reducing the distance between
dish and mouth and limiting the danger or dropping things
with chopsticks. Soup, for example, is drunk directly
from the bowl.
JUL-04-1993 00:04
TOKYO ADVANCE PRESS
3505 9208 P.003/020
-- If someone pours a drink for you, be sure to lift the
glass and tilt it slightly in his/her direction. (Women
will usually hold the glass in the right hand with their
left hand under the glass while their drink is being
poured.) It is good form to reciprocate immediately
after, offering to pour his/her beer, wine, sake, tea or
whatever.
-- If sitting on the floor Japanese style, there will
always be a cushion. Legs are usually folded under the
body or angled to the right or left side. If things get
uncomfortable, it is acceptable to shift the legs around
left to right. In fact, most modern Japanese have similar
problems sitting on the floor for long periods too!
Women, however, should never sit with their legs crossed
in front of them as most men do.
Forms of address:
Most Japanese are addressed by their last name--plus the
all important title. Do not call people by their first
name unless they urge you to do so and then only if they
really insist. The title -san is attached to all names,
male and female. It is a sexless combination of Mr.,
Mrs., and Ms. -chan is sometimes used with children or
between childhood friends as a term of endearment.
Another title you may hear is -sensei (SEN-say) used for
teachers, elders, artists, politicians or others in
respectful positions. Sometimes people are addressed only
with the title. Shacho (SHAH-cho), for example, means
"company president" or okusan (OAKS-sahn) means wife.
If you receive a name card when meeting somebody, be sure
to go through the motions of looking at it for a few
seconds. It is considered rude to ignore it.
Bowing:
It is nice to bow when meeting people, but most Japanese
will expect you to shake hands. DO whatever makes you
feel most comfortable.
Shoes:
It is customary to remove shoes when entering a home,
certain workshops or religious establishments. (Thus it
is wise to make sure stockings or socks are free of
holes!) It should be obvious whether or not to take them
off if a row of slippers are lined up or if there are
other shoes arrayed at the entranceway.

-- If you are already in slippers, take them off when
entering a Japanese style room with the straw tatami
mats. NEVER wear slippers on tatami. People will shuffle
around in their stocking feet.
Dress:
There are four main events for Mrs. Clinton--the spouse's
program, the two meals hosted by Mrs. Miyazawa and the
dinner at the Imperial Palace.
For the first three it would be appropriate to wear a suit
or dress. Slacks would be out of place. Any color or
pattern is fine. Whatever is in good taste in Washington
or Little Rock will be here too.
If the event involves a Japanese style meal and sitting on
the floor, tight skirts may be a problem. Full skirts are
recommended.
For the Imperial dinner, since it is a black-tie event,
more formal attire is needed, say, a long evening dress.
A hat or gloves are not required. Black should not be
worn, although black in combination with another color is
fine.
Since it will be near the end of the rainy season, and
likely to be warm and humid, light washable clothes are
best. An umbrella is indispensable.
Gifts:
If you receive a gift, ask if it is OK to open it at that
moment. Usually the answer will be yes. If you have a
gift prepared, it is best to give it just before
departure, say, at the end of the meal or the end of the
meeting.
Other:
If you are wearing a coat, take it off before entering a
house, an office or any place where people are waiting to
see you. Most Japanese take their coat off just outside
the door and carry it over the arm as they enter and bow.
Men will often go through a door, enter a room or get in a
car before women. Do not be surprised if this happens.

TOKYO ADVANCE PRESS
3505 9208 P.005/020
If you take a Japanese bath, do not soap up inside the
bathtub. Do that outside the tub while sitting on a small
stool provided in most bathrooms. After the soap is all
rinsed off and you are clean, then enter the bath to
soak. Also do not pull the plug in the tub. The same
water will often be used by other guests.
The number "4" is bad luck. That is because its Japanese
pronunciation has the same sound as the word for death.
Avoid doing anything in bunches of four.
NEVER tip. Many workers consider a tip insulting. If a
taxi driver, a hotel employee or somebody else does
something extraordinary, or really goes out of his/her way
to help you, then a tip can be offered. But tips are
never given for routine, ordinary jobs in a restaurant,
beauty parlor, barber shop or any other place where
services are performed.
