Procedure for Reimbursing Health Insurance Funds
According to Article 20 of Decision 595/QD-BHXH in 2017, it is stipulated:
Individuals participating in health insurance under the categories in Clauses 4 and 5 of Article 17 shall be reimbursed for health insurance contributions in the following cases:
- The participant is issued a health insurance card under a new category, and now the previously issued card’s utilization value is reported reduced (ranked in the order after the new category as stipulated in Article 12 of the Health Insurance Law);
- The state budget adjusts and increases support for health insurance contributions;
- The individual dies before the health insurance card becomes effective.
Thus, when you are issued a new health insurance card under the labor category and your voluntary health insurance card is still valid, you will be reimbursed corresponding to the remaining valid days.
The procedure for requesting health insurance (BHXH) reimbursement is as follows:
*Documentation:
- Declaration form for participation and adjustment of BHXH and health insurance information (Form TK1-TS).
- BHXH book for voluntary BHXH participants, those with overlapping BHXH and unemployment insurance (BHTN) contributions submit all BHXH books.
- Certified document or original with attached death certificate in the case of death.
*Submission location:
Social insurance agency.
Respectfully!
