Health insurance coverage for implant-related treatments
All dentists practicing dentistry in South Korea, whether in private practice or in the public sector, must operate within the framework of dental health insurance. Failure to do so can result in penalties for voluntary deductibles, or even failure to file claims due to ignorance of the proper procedures, even when claims are fully covered by health insurance. Therefore, it's crucial to carefully identify insurance eligibility and items to avoid losses. Health insurance is constantly evolving, so we urge you to stay informed and keep up-to-date with relevant regulations.
