If you are unable to move due to an accident, you will use crutches or a wheelchair. Wheelchairs are more convenient to move than crutches, and they are convenient, so when you try to buy them, you hesitate because of the price, and it becomes a burden unless you use them for a long time. In this case, you can rent a wheelchair, crutches, and a walker for free from the National Health Insurance Corporation.

Anyone eligible for rental is a member of the National Health Insurance and eligible for medical benefits, and patients undergoing inpatient treatment at a sanatorium are excluded.

concluding
It was a way to rent a wheelchair for free. The price of a wheelchair varies depending on the material, but it seems to be between 100,000 and 500,000. If you need to use it continuously, the rental period is up to 4 months, so I think it would be okay to purchase it. So, I hope this helps, and I’m done. thank you
