FSS to Offer "Insurance Fraud Prevention Training" for Nursing Assistants
Insurance Fraud Risks Common in Medical Settings
Focus on Protecting Nursing Assistants
The Financial Supervisory Service said on Oct. 26 that it will provide insurance fraud prevention training for nursing assistants in cooperation with the Korea Life Insurance Association and the General Insurance Association of Korea.
The training was developed to actively protect nursing assistants from the risk of becoming involved in insurance fraud, which they are frequently exposed to in medical settings.
As of the second quarter of this year, 223,988 nursing assistants worked at medical institutions. Of these, 168,340 worked at clinics (138,861) and nursing hospitals (29,479), accounting for 75.2% of the total.
The Financial Supervisory Service will introduce major types of insurance fraud that nursing assistants may commonly encounter in medical settings, along with specific cases and effective ways to respond to the risk of becoming involved. It will also explain the definition of insurance fraud and the penalties for committing it to improve understanding and raise awareness.
In addition, the training will be tailored to the risks of insurance fraud that nursing assistants are frequently exposed to in actual medical settings.
The training is intended for nursing assistants. It will begin with online courses, which are more accessible, and will gradually expand to in-person training after participation and effectiveness are assessed.
