Kazakhstan to simplify MSHI status checks for citizens

Kazakhstanis will soon find it easier to verify their status within the Mandatory Social Health Insurance (MSHI) system. The Ministry of Health has drafted amendments to the public service rules, aiming to streamline the process for citizens to check their insurance participation.

Under the proposed changes, individuals can expect quicker access to information regarding their MSHI status. This includes details on coverage periods and verification of contributions and payments made on their behalf. The service will be available electronically through the eGov.kz e-government portal, allowing citizens to check their records at their convenience without needing to visit government offices.

The ministry highlighted that the MSHI system currently enrolls 17.5 million participants. It provides insured citizens with access to a broad spectrum of medical care, encompassing preventative check-ups, consultations, specialized treatments, high-tech services, rehabilitation, and medication, irrespective of their contribution amounts or social standing.
