Health subsidy – massage voucher – support system
The health subsidy massage voucher is one of the health subsidy systems implemented by the government’s Ministry of Health and Welfare and local governments. This is a support project that provides health and welfare to socially vulnerable groups with poor health and employment stability by creating jobs for visually impaired masseuses. You can receive high-quality service from masseuses for the visually impaired who have completed at least two years of specialized medical training.
Applicants for the massage voucher service can apply if the following five conditions apply:
① If you are over 60 years old
② People of national merit (regardless of age)
③ Disabled (regardless of age)
④ Below 140% of standard median income
⑤ Among basic pension recipients and basic livelihood recipients, those with circulatory system, musculoskeletal system, and nervous system disease disease codes (refer to the chart)
① Application documents
– Bring either an ID card or a health insurance card (if you have a welfare card, bring it with you)
– You can submit one of the following: health insurance premium payment confirmation, payment receipt, or payment claim form.
– You can submit one of the following: a doctor’s diagnosis, opinion, or prescription with a disease classification code within 6 months of issuance.
② Application reception
Once the documents are ready, you can visit the welfare department of the administrative welfare center or community center in your jurisdiction and apply for a massage voucher. Once the application is completed and you are selected after screening, a massage voucher card will be issued.
※ Note
Applications are mainly accepted in January and February every year, but there are differences in the application period and number of applicants depending on the region, so we recommend that you first check with the local community center to see if you can apply. If the application period has passed, it would be a good idea to check the next application period in advance and then apply. In some cases, we may recruit additional applicants if we do not receive enough support, so please be sure to check.

① Number of uses: Available 4 times a month
② Period of use: Can be used 4 times a month for a total of 40 times over 10 months
③ Usage time: Massage service for 60 minutes per session
④ Massage service cost: Of the 40,000 won massage cost, only 10% is to be paid by the individual (4,000 won per session), and 90% is supported by the government (36,000 won).
⑤ Support amount: 144,000 won per month (1,440,000 won for 10 months)
So far, we have looked at the health subsidy massage voucher support system. Massage vouchers are said to have low out-of-pocket costs, are easy to use once received, and have a high level of satisfaction. There are quite a few systems supported by the government or local governments, but there are many cases that pass by without knowing, so I thought it would be a good idea to provide it to parents and elderly neighbors who are physically challenged so that they can benefit from health subsidy massage vouchers.
