Regulations Governing the National Health Insurance Medical Care Article 13
A beneficiary who is already hospitalized may not leave the hospital at his or her discretion. Where it is necessary for a beneficiary to leave the hospital due to any special circumstance, he or she shall first obtain permission from the responsible physician, who should record the reason and departure time in the beneficiary’s medical record before the beneficiary is allowed to leave the hospital by leave. The beneficiary is not allowed to stay overnight outside of the hospital. A beneficiary who leaves the hospital without permission shall be automatically deemed as having discharged themselves from the hospital.
