President Lai Ching-te endorsed the initiative for local care! The Ministry of Health and National Health Insurance Administration will allocate 350 million yuan to launch the 'Trial Program for Emergency Home Care' starting in July, allowing patients with pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin and soft tissue infections to choose between 'home hospitalization' or receiving treatment in a care facility. It is estimated that 5,400 people will benefit from this initiative. President Lai personally attended the policy launch press conference today and expressed care for residents through video calls to long-term care facilities.
