Local health insurance authorities of the central province of Nghệ An have issued some 5,000 health insurance cards with wrong personal information, the provincial authority has said.
A group of supervisors from the province’s People’s Council released the figure in a report after conducting urgent checks on local health insurance authorities in the province’s Tương Dương District.
