Legal Consulting Department of Lao Dong Newspaper answers:

Article 6 of Decree 321/2026/ND-CP stipulates the level of benefits, allowances and preferential regimes for people with meritorious services to the revolution (effective from October 1, 2026), stipulating health recovery nursing as follows:

1. Home health recovery nursing: the expenditure level is 0.9 times the standard level/person/time and is paid directly to the beneficiary.

2. Concentrated health recovery nursing: the expenditure level is 1.8 times the standard level/person/time. The expenditure content includes:

a) Food allowance during convalescence;

b) Essential medicines;

c) Gifts for the subject;

d) Visiting (travel expenses, entrance tickets);

đ) Other expenses directly serving the subject during the nursing period (maximum expenditure level of 10% of the centralized health recovery nursing expenditure level), including: face towels, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, photos, health consultation, rehabilitation, newspapers, cultural, artistic, sports activities and other expenses serving the nursing subject.

Thus, from October 1, 2026, people with meritorious services to the revolution will enjoy different levels of health recovery care depending on whether the care is at home or centralized.
