According to Korean media reports on June 10 and 19, the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare said on June 18 that compared with "disease treatment", cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery are mostly patients' own choices, so most of the cosmetic surgery expenses are not in medical insurance coverage, which is an uninsured treatment operation. There are many kinds of surgery that are not covered by insurance, and the cost of surgery is mostly decided by doctors, so some cosmetic hospitals have repeatedly banned the practice of slaughtering customers.
According to the report, in April last year, after a China patient went to South Korea to receive double eyelid surgery, he was asked by the hospital for 654.38 billion won (about 600,000 yuan) for surgery because he didn't know much about the Korean medical industry. The case caused a heated discussion for a while.
According to the report, the relevant person in charge of the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare said that it is the basic policy of the government to intensify efforts to rectify the phenomenon of unreasonable charges in the medical market. However, because the nature of cosmetic surgery is different from that of general surgery, the government needs to make a fact-finding plan before rectification. This plan will investigate issues closely related to patient safety, comprehensively consider whether patients and hospitals have signed medical and independent contracts, and comprehensively explore the fact-finding plan.
According to the report, the Korean Plastic Surgery Association welcomed the government's statement. The association said that because of the behavior of some "black-hearted doctors", citizens have a great misunderstanding about the plastic surgery industry, and hope that the government can actively investigate and restore the truth. According to industry analysis, most plastic surgery hospitals are facing operational difficulties recently, and the profitability of hospitals is not optimistic. Many plastic surgery hospitals hope to take this opportunity to improve their industry image.
Natural beauty is good.
