Once properly registered, patients using Pattaya Hospital can now use their
national health insurance coverage to pay for services. Hospital directors
celebrated the start of the new service by offering free checkups to city
employees.
Pattaya Permanent Secretary Pakorn Sukhonthachat brought city hall workers to
the hospital for the Oct. 27 health screenings, directed by the hospital’s
public-health project manager Dr. Kritsada Manuyawong.
Kritsada said Pattaya’s new hospital is a secondary level 2.1 hospital with 110
beds, which qualifies it for the Health Ministry’s standard as a medical center
where social security insurance can be used. The facility is now registered as
PCU service center and service unit.
Anyone interested in changing their social security privileges to Pattaya
Hospital need to present a medical certificate and ID card or other card issued
by the government.
Those interested can contact 1506 or Pattaya hospital 038-103-900 for more
information.
