B3.5bn virus budget sought
The board of National Health Security Office (NHSO) will ask the cabinet to approve a central budget of 3.5 billion baht to treat Covid-19 patients under the Universal Health Coverage scheme, NHSO secretary-general Sakchai Kanchanawattana said on Monday.
The move came after the NHSO resolved to allow the scheme to cover medical bills for Covid-19 from diagnosis to treatments and rehabilitation.
