If you are insured in the household registration office and used to pay monthly NHI premiums in the nearby convenience stores, you might have concern over the risk of COVID-19 infection. According to the NHIA, if you are not sure whether you’ve paid the premiums, just click on ‘e-counter’ in the NHI APP to see if you have unpaid premiums. The payment options include current accounts, credit cards or mobile payment such as Line Pay Money, JKOPAY or Pi APP. The aforementioned payment methods can reduce person-to-person contacts and risks of infection.
According to the NHIA, for people who are insured in the household registration office, they can make use of the ‘e-counter’ section and pay NHI premiums via ‘online payment’ or ‘QR code for payment in convenience stores’. The aforesaid methods can reduce person-to-person contacts during the COVID-19 pandemic. For those who do not have payment notice, they can complete payment via their mobile phone.
