[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 13th that it will provide hygiene management supplies to low-income medical aid case management households, which are relatively vulnerable to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

The county will use medical aid project funds to distribute hygiene management supplies consisting of KF94 masks and hand sanitizers to 300 low-income medical aid Daeseung households.

Last year, the county also received great responses by supporting automatic electronic blood pressure monitors for chronic patients vulnerable to infectious diseases such as COVID-19 among low-income medical aid recipients, and by promoting a project to provide non-contact thermometers to households with elementary, middle, and high school children.

A county official said, “Although vaccination for the elderly is underway, it is not yet a stage to be relieved,” and added, “We plan to continue providing various medical supports suitable for the situation to prevent the spread of infectious diseases among vulnerable groups.”

Meanwhile, medical aid case management is a project aimed at improving the quality of healthy life and stabilizing medical aid finances through ▲ enhancing the health management ability of medical aid recipients ▲ inducing rational medical use ▲ building support systems.
