[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] University students have started to take action to promote 'health,' including smoking cessation and insurance.


The Changwon Masan branch of the National Health Insurance Service (Branch Manager Cho Hyun-dae) announced on the 5th that it held the launch ceremony for the 'Health Insurance University Student Supporters' on the afternoon of the 4th and will begin full-scale activities.


The supporters recruited by the Changwon Masan branch consist of 25 university students from the Masan area. From June to November, over six months, they will play a role in promoting the health insurance system and major issues such as smoking cessation treatment support projects and health checkups.


In addition to promotion through personal SNS, the supporters will participate in on-site campaigns and volunteer at NHIS events according to the social distancing levels.



Branch Manager Cho Hyun-dae said, “Although there are many restrictions on supporters' activities due to COVID-19, we cannot neglect informing the public about the health insurance system and various information. I hope they gain a lot of experience related to health, such as insurance, checkups, and smoking cessation.”
