Huang Fu-yuan notes that children under 18 comprise 26.7 % of Taiwan's total population but only 12.5 % of NIH payments, which is less than is spent on dialysis. On the other hand, the 9 % of people who comprise the elderly population use up 33 % of NHI payments.
黃富源指出，我國 18 歲以下兒童佔總人口數的 26.7％，但健保給付經費卻只有 12.5％，經費不及洗腎的費用；反觀 9％的老年人口卻用掉了 33％的健保費用。
