Information about Vietnam Healthcare system and insurance system.

The healthcare system in Vietnam is based on a government-run public healthcare model. Access to healthcare is ensured by every citizen enrolling in a compulsory insurance program called Basic Health Insurance (TSI). Basic Health Insurance is open to all citizens and foreigners, and there are different participation conditions and premium rates for different groups such as employees, retirees, students and self-employed people. Insurance premiums are collected based on income and shared between employers and employees. Healthcare in Vietnam is provided through community health centres, polyclinics, hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The government also runs programs such as mobile health clinics to increase access to healthcare in rural areas. Services offered under Basic Health Insurance include emergency care, general examination, hospital services, medications and some other medical procedures. However, some advanced treatments and specialty healthcare may require additional insurance or payment. Healthcare in Vietnam is generally affordable, but there may be some challenges with quality and access. While hospitals in larger cities are often better equipped and offer specialized services, access to healthcare may be limited in rural areas. As a result, the healthcare system in Vietnam is based on a public healthcare model built on Basic Health Insurance. This system aims to facilitate citizens' access to health services. However, although there are some challenges and shortcomings, generally affordable healthcare services are offered.
