Legal basis: Notice of the Ministry of Finance, the National Medical Insurance Bureau and the National Health and Wellness Committee on the Financial Subsidy of Medical Insurance Fund for COVID-19 Vaccine and Vaccination Expenses.
First, fully understand the importance of doing a good job in the medical insurance fund's financial subsidy for vaccine and vaccination expenses in COVID-19.
Promoting vaccination in COVID-19 in an orderly manner is an important decision made by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on the basis of scientific analysis of the situation of epidemic prevention and control at home and abroad. It is also an important measure to effectively block the spread of the virus, consolidate the achievements of epidemic prevention and control, and achieve a sustained and comprehensive improvement in the economic and social order. Finance, medical insurance and health departments at all levels should earnestly improve their political positions, fully understand the significance of financial subsidies for COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination costs, actively take effective measures, and faithfully implement the decision-making and deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council from the perspective of safeguarding people's lives and health, achieving a sustained and comprehensive improvement in economic and social order and promoting the long-term sustainable operation of medical insurance funds.
Two, financial subsidies to the medical insurance fund and sharing mechanism
The finance subsidizes the medical insurance fund according to 30% of the actual inoculation amount and inoculation cost confirmed by the health and medical insurance departments. The central government grants financial subsidies and medical insurance funds to all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, including cities under separate state planning, the same below) at different levels. Among them, the eastern region will be subsidized by 30%, the central region by 40% and the western region by 50%. Measures for financial sharing below the provincial level shall be formulated by the financial departments of provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) jointly with the medical insurance departments, and copied to the local supervision bureau of the Ministry of Finance. The accumulated balance of the basic medical insurance fund for employees or the basic medical insurance fund for urban and rural residents in the previous year can be paid for less than three months as a whole. After being approved by the provincial finance and medical insurance departments, the proportion of financial subsidies can be increased to ensure that the normal treatment and payment of the insured personnel are not affected.
