[Note]
When using a smartphone with Android version 6.0 or lower, there is a problem in which the user cannot selectively consent to the optional access rights of The Health Insurance mobile app (consent is considered upon installation). Therefore, if possible, the user cannot consent to the optional access rights of the health insurance mobile app. It is recommended that you upgrade your smartphone operating system to Android 6.0 or higher using the software update function. Additionally, even if the operating system is upgraded, the access permissions agreed to in existing apps do not change, so to reset access permissions, you must delete and reinstall the already installed app.

Ratings and reviews

This is the most difficult app I've ever tired to use. I want to view my bill and pay it online. There's no reason why it should be so hatd to do a simple task. That's the only reason someone would want an app for insurance. Especially since foreigners can't use any of the other things on this app. The layout of this app is ridiculous and overly complicated. The English call line keeps you waiting for hours and still offers little help for future issues. I have to call every month to pay my bill

Is ok that the app isn't in english and I agree we should adapt. But at least let us take screenshot so we can use external translator. Really, a person can use another phone to take picture of the app, so the security measure of not letting taking screenshot makes no sense.

This app has great features for Korean speakers. However, as a foreign resident I have noticed that my entire health history and treatment hasn't been recorded on the NHIS system. I can only see my previous employers, and proof of my enrollment.
