Direct billing service is generally difficult to understand in Korea. In general, there is no direct billing service in Korea. This is because of the well-established national health insurance system as a social security system and the familiar medical bill payment system. Foreign patients sign up through global overseas insurance companies for travel, business trips, and other purposes, but in Korea, it is difficult for individual hospitals to apply the payment system.
Direct billing is an billing arrangement between the health insurance company and a doctor (or other medical facility), where the medical facility sends bills for services directly to your health insurance company. This means that you do not have to put in a separate claim with your insurance company.
