From July 2025, students nationwide will receive at least 50% support from the State for health insurance premiums, instead of 30% as before.

Propaganda about health insurance for students.

Decree 188/2025/ND-CP details and guides the implementation of a number of articles of the Law on Health Insurance. Accordingly, from July 1, 2025, the State budget will support at least 50% of the health insurance premium for many groups of subjects, including students; village health workers; village midwives; forces participating in protecting security and order at the grassroots level; non-professional workers in villages and residential groups; and artisans awarded titles by the State.

According to current regulations, the health insurance contribution rate is equal to 4.5% of the basic salary. The current basic salary according to Decree 73/2024/ND-CP is 2,340,000 VND/month. Therefore, the health insurance contribution rate is equivalent to 105,300 VND.

Previously, students were supported by the State with 30% of their health insurance premiums, so every month they had to pay 70% of their health insurance premiums, equivalent to 73,710 VND/month.

However, from July 1, according to Decree 188/2025/ND-CP, students will receive 50% support from the State for social insurance contributions, so they only need to pay a maximum of VND 52,650/month, a reduction of more than VND 21,000/month compared to before.

Students can choose to pay health insurance periodically in 3 ways: 3 months, 6 months, 12 months. The amount of health insurance for students (after deducting the support from the State budget) is specifically as follows: If students pay every 3 months, the amount is 157,950 VND, if they pay every 6 months, the amount is 315,900 VND, if they pay every 9 months, the amount is 473,850 VND and if they pay every 12 months, the amount is: 631,800 VND.

Students participating in health insurance have the right to register for initial medical examination and treatment at one of the health insurance medical examination and treatment facilities at the commune level or equivalent according to regulations, and can choose and change the place of registration for initial medical examination and treatment at the beginning of each quarter.
