“How do I use non-face-to-face treatment?” How to use non-face-to-face medical treatment app A to Z
These days, many people are welcoming the news that non-face-to-face treatment will be expanded from December 15, 2023. The scope of non-face-to-face treatment, which was only allowed for ‘re-visiting’ patients, has been greatly expanded, making it possible for anyone in the entire country to receive non-face-to-face treatment again. If this is your first time receiving non-face-to-face treatment, we will explain in detail everything from what non-face-to-face treatment is to how to use the non-face-to-face treatment app.
Non-face-to-face treatment refers to a service that allows patients to receive treatment anytime, anywhere without having to visit the hospital in person. Non-face-to-face treatment, which was temporarily allowed due to COVID-19, was terminated, and a new supplementary plan for the non-face-to-face treatment pilot project was implemented from December 15, 2023.
The existing non-face-to-face treatment, which has been implemented since last June, was only available to ‘re-visiting’ patients, so the range of patients who could actually receive non-face-to-face treatment was very narrow. However, in the new pilot project for non-face-to-face treatment, the scope has been greatly expanded so that anyone in the country can receive non-face-to-face treatment only at night and on holidays, even if they have no previous visit experience. In addition, you only need to remember the three changes below regarding non-face-to-face treatment.
Previously, non-face-to-face treatment was only available to returning patients with the same disease at the same hospital who had received face-to-face treatment within 30 days. Now, regardless of disease, non-face-to-face treatment is available at the same hospital without time restrictions.
For example, if you have received face-to-face treatment for a cold within the past 6 months, you can receive non-face-to-face treatment for enteritis at the relevant hospital. If you have not experienced face-to-face treatment within the past 6 months or would like to receive non-face-to-face treatment at a location other than the hospital, you can use it, but there may be restrictions on time. Time will be explained in more detail below.
The only patients allowed for first examination at night and on holidays were pediatric patients under the age of 18, and medication prescriptions were not possible. Now, non-face-to-face treatment and medication prescriptions are possible for all age groups at night or on holidays, even at hospitals without face-to-face treatment records.
As explained above, if you have a history of face-to-face treatment within 6 months, you can use non-face-to-face treatment at the hospital without time limit. However, if you do not have a history of face-to-face treatment, you can use it during the above time slot.
Previously, non-face-to-face treatment for a first visit was only possible in some islands and remote areas according to the insurance premium reduction notice, but now the areas allowing non-face-to-face treatment have been greatly expanded to 98 cities, counties, and districts. These are areas with poor accessibility to local emergency medical centers, and if you are in that area, you can use non-face-to-face treatment without time restrictions.

Yes, of course! In non-face-to-face treatment, a doctor at an actual hospital examines the patient, prescribes a prescription, and then fills the prescription at an actual pharmacy. There are specialists in each field, and you can select the doctor you want and receive treatment based on reviews left by many people.
Non-face-to-face medical treatment is available to all citizens, but medicine delivery services are still only available to very rare patients, such as residents of islands and remote areas, patients in quarantine due to infectious diseases, and people with disabilities who have difficulty moving around.
Instead, after non-face-to-face treatment, you can easily send a prescription by selecting a nearby pharmacy within the app, and you can visit the pharmacy directly to receive the medicine.
