China News Service, May 9 (Xinhua) According to Taiwan's "Central News Agency", the epidemic in Taiwan continued to spread, and some property insurance companies criticized the insufficient disclosure of information on digital new coronavirus health certificates.
Taiwan's "Financial Regulatory Commission" responded that it has coordinated the addition of an identity card number, including the test pathogen, the date of sample collection and report results, and the medical institution, which is the same as the information on the diagnosis certificate issued by the doctor.
However, after hearing this, many property and casualty insurance companies stated that it would still be unacceptable if the digital certificate only added to reveal the identity card number, did not contain the name of the doctor, and only had a medical institution.
According to reports, the number of confirmed cases of the new crown in Taiwan has continued to rise, and many people have flooded into hospitals to request a certificate of diagnosis in order to apply for insurance claims, causing chaos.
On the 8th, Taiwan's "Financial Regulatory Commission" urgently invited marketers to hold a meeting to develop countermeasures, planning to replace the diagnosis and diagnosis certificate with a digital new crown virus health certificate.
According to reports, a number of property and casualty insurance companies believe that the diagnosis certificate should still be used as a claim requirement, and expressed their objections at the video conference, but the "Insurance Bureau" strongly demanded that this matter must be passed.
The property insurance industry emphasizes that it insists on using the doctor's medical certificate as the basis for claims. In addition to the lack of personal data such as relevant test results, the medical certificate will not be issued casually because the medical certificate contains the doctor's name and involves a doctor's license, and the effect is relatively strict.
In this regard, Taiwan's "Financial Regulatory Commission" issued a statement stating that some media reports that the "Financial Regulatory Commission" ignored the industry's report that the certificate did not fully disclose the identity card number, drug information, and could not solve the problem of forgery, etc., are not true.
The "Financial Regulatory Commission" explained that the part about the disclosure of the identity card number has been communicated with the "Ministry of Health and Welfare" and agreed to add it.
In addition, in order to avoid forgery, the "Ministry of Health and Welfare" also provides digital new coronavirus health certificate inspection services.
Taiwan's "Financial Regulatory Commission" stated that the recent increase in the demand from the public to medical institutions for the issuance of diagnosis certificates has had a crowding effect on the amount of medical care, so it will invite the China Life Insurance Association and related businesses to discuss whether it is possible to use digital The COVID-19 health certificate is used as a substitute for the doctor's diagnosis certificate, and the Association is requested to discuss the claim acceptance process and documents as soon as possible.
