The National Health Insurance Service has offered a ‘gift’ to help citizens maintain their health remotely, as health activities have become difficult due to COVID-19.

The Busan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters of the National Health Insurance Service (Director Jang Su-mok) will operate a ‘non-face-to-face health promotion center’ until the end of this year due to the continued spread of COVID-19. It is a health teacher in your hand that you can follow by watching on your mobile phone.

Medical, nutrition, and exercise guidance experts produce weekly exercise videos, health lectures, and various health information content online to meet the health needs of citizens whose physical activity has significantly decreased due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

The non-face-to-face health promotion center allows membership registration through Naver Band operated by each health promotion center of the Busan West, Ulsan South, and Changwon Central branches.

Participants are given missions and provided with exercise notebooks and continuous feedback to help establish self-health management habits.

The channel names are ‘Online Health Promotion Center’ (Busan West Branch), ‘Han Son-e Nae Geongang Ssok’ (Ulsan South Branch), and ‘Changwon Central Health Promotion Center’ (Changwon Central Branch). Anyone can register as a member.

Events such as mission completion and ranking management will be held, and incentives such as prizes will be provided to outstanding participants.

Director Jang Su-mok said, “As the organization responsible for the lifelong health of the people, we will support citizens to live healthy lives even during the COVID-19 situation.”
