As prescribed in Clause 4 Article 22 of the Law on Health Insurance, the insured that register primary medical care at commune-level health centers, polyclinics or district-level hospitals may receive health insurance-covered medical care at the benefit levels at commune-level health centers, polyclinics or district-level hospitals in the same province.

Thus, the case you register for initial medical care at a provincial hospital will not apply the above provisions when going to the polyclinic in the same province.
