Overseas & Compatriot Student Health Insurance
Hi,
It's really too bad that so many of the new students coming this year are studying here without any health insurance due the impossible Taiwanese government policy regarding 4 months ARC before joining National Health Insurance. What's even worse is that those students don't know that NCKU actually offers a private alternative health insurance plan for them during that time.
I've joined this program, and although I find it extremely annoying that I need to visit the ISAD office every time prior to visiting the only places I can go to - the NCKU and Tainan hospitals - it still helps a little. It covers up to 1000NT$ per treatment (covered all for me two times, and half the third time), and a more general accident insurance up to 1000000NT$, I think. Verify this. It costs 2000NT$ for those 4 months.
Either way, for the students coming in during next semester/year, attached is the Chinese agreement followed by some of the English notes I was able to make of them. It'd be nice if one of the Taiwanese visiting here (or better - the ISAD office) could help us fully translate this.
