Cost & Insurance

In an emergency, the first hospital you go to may be an ordinary medical institution. To continue treatment after the industrial accident claim is approved, however, the facility must be a designated industrial-accident insurance institution for the care to be covered. There is also a procedure for transferring institutions, so please check in advance rather than moving on your own.

Q. If a car accident occurs during business travel or commute, do both industrial and auto insurance apply?

A.

Yes, you can choose which insurance to apply — typically industrial offers better coverage.

📝 Detailed Answer

Dual coverage situation (commute/business travel accident): ① accident during commute or business travel may qualify as industrial accident, ② also auto insurance applies, ③ patient/family chooses which to apply, ④ industrial insurance often more comprehensive (longer treatment, no fault consideration), ⑤ cannot double-claim — choose one. Talk to workers compensation counselor for guidance. Korean medicine clinic accepts both insurance types — focus on getting appropriate treatment.
