[snoop1130]

 

BANGKOK, March 16 (TNA) – The Public Health Ministry started its UCEP (Universal Coverage for Emergency Patients) Plus scheme to pay for COVID-19 treatment for yellow and red-coded patients at all public and private hospitals while green-coded ones must depend on their normal health welfare.

 

Under UCEP Plus, green-coded COVID-19 patients cannot seek free treatment at any hospital but must do it at hospitals contracted under their individual welfare schemes – universal healthcare and social security schemes. Free treatment at any hospitals is available only for yellow and red-coded patients.
