작년 한국방문 외국인 환자 38만명...10년간 누적 226만명 돌파

Some 380-thousand foreign patients visited Korea last year-- an almost 18 percent on-year spike.
The Health Ministry's latest data shows patients from 190 countries received medical care in Korea last year.
The data refers to patients without a Korean address or national health insurance.
Over two million foreign patients have visited the nation for treatment since the country first allowed this in 2009.
