1. BACKGROUND

Social Health Insurance in Viet Nam

Viet Nam started to develop health insurance mechanisms in 1989 with the pilot health insurance schemes in selected provinces and on a voluntary basis. The implementation of health insurance remained governed by decrees from 1992 to 2009, when the first Health Insurance Law No 25/2008/QH12, enacted in 2008 came into force. This Law was then the first one on Health Insurance, making an essential foundation for the operation of social health protection in order to protect, care and improve the people’s health through health insurance mechanism. In 2014, the National Assembly enacted the Addendum of the Health Insurance Law as a means to address a number of provisions deemed irrelevant to the operation of the health insurance scheme. Viet Nam made great strides in increasing population coverage which now stands at 90% of the population, relying on a mix contributory and non‐contributory system. The benefit package has been progressively expanded, and subsidies provided to ensure financial protection. In an effort to not only further expand the coverage to additional groups of population but also to retain the existing membership in the system, the Government has identified service quality of both health insurance and health care services toward citizens’ satisfaction as crucial to ensure its effectiveness and sustainability. As key to a social security member‐centred approach, those goals need to be assessed through the perspectives of the key stakeholders and health insurance members, to make sure their voices are listened to and taken into consideration. The level of satisfactions of members is key to the cycle of continuous implementation of the service quality framework.

Customer Care Centre of Vietnam Social Security (VCCC)

Acknowledging the importance of service quality and satisfaction of members of health and social insurance schemes, VSS has recently established the Customer Care Centre tasked with management and implementation of support, counselling, care services to members of VSS and measurement of members’ satisfaction. The VCCC structure is still being set up at the very early stage. It is staffed with around 20 staff members, plus with a call centre with 20 operators. Customer service and satisfaction tools and survey implementation is a new area for many of them. VCCC has indicated their needs for ILO’s technical support to improve their capacities to handle these new responsibilities, including managing regular satisfaction surveys to ensure its quality and effectiveness. As a result, ILO is looking for a service provider to strengthen knowledge and capacity of VCCC’s staff to design, implement and supervise satisfaction surveys with the ultimate objective to render quality services to VSS’s members.
