If patients get better, they can be transferred to ordinary wards.

The reimbursement rates of medical insurance in ICU are 6%, 55% and 5%.

1. Designated medical institutions of Class I (including community health service institutions), with 6% paid by the overall fund and 4% borne by individuals;

2. For the second-class designated medical institutions, 55% will be paid by the overall fund and 45% will be borne by individuals;

3, three types of designated medical institutions, the overall fund to pay 5%, individuals bear 5%;

4. The insurance year of residents' medical insurance is calculated according to the natural year. In a natural year, the cumulative maximum payment limit of the overall fund is 25, yuan (including the expenses of diseases specified in hospitalization and outpatient service).
