How to return money for treatment in a sanatorium. Compensation for spa treatment

As you know, preferential categories of citizens receive free vouchers to sanatoriums and resorts located on the territory of the country. But in fact, any employed citizen of the country has the right to reduce the cost of staying in domestic health resorts by receiving a tax deduction for treatment. Let's find out who is entitled to compensation for the sanatorium in 2019, how to apply for it, and what is its size.

Under what conditions is compensation for the sanatorium

The law allows citizens to compensate for part of the costs of medical procedures, medical examinations and diagnostics, and rehabilitation measures if the following conditions are met:

• the citizen is officially employed, receives earnings and is paid personal income tax from him at a rate of 13%;
• the applicant chose a licensed sanatorium and resort facility located within Russia for recreation and treatment;
• the voucher to the sanatorium was paid for by the citizen’s own savings for himself and / or family members (if the voucher was paid by the employer, compensation for the sanatorium cannot be provided);
• if compensation is issued when buying medicines, they must be recommended for use by a doctor, as evidenced by the written prescription (the medicines must be bought for their own money, not on benefits).

It is worth noting that, although the law provides for the provision of compensation not only for treatment (in the case of a social deduction - only for treatment), but also for rehabilitation, medicines, procedures, classes with a personal instructor and other services of a health-improving enterprise, accommodation and a ticket to sanatorium and back will have to pay at your own expense. The only thing is that the fare can be paid at the expense of the budget for the privileged category of citizens.

Where to apply for a certificate of the amount of expenses incurred

A certificate of payment for the services of the sanatorium is issued to the visitor, and the “stub” of the certificate remains in storage at the institution for 3 years.

To be able to apply for a tax deduction for treatment in a sanatorium, you will have to document the amount of expenses. A certificate of payment will be issued at the resort itself. Keep in mind that even when purchasing a voucher from a travel company, a statement of expenses must be obtained at the sanatorium.

The certificate will list the amount of expenses and items of expenses. Based on these data, compensation for the sanatorium will be calculated. But keep in mind that the cost of excursions, cafe visits, entertainment programs and travel agency fees will not be reimbursed. Help should contain:

• full name of the sanatorium, its address;
• tax details;
• document number, date of issue, expiration date of the license;
• company stamp.

If the legality of the work of a sanatorium institution is in doubt among tax service specialists, they must independently request information on the issuance of a license - no one can require a citizen to provide a copy of the license of the sanatorium.

How much compensation is provided for the sanatorium

The Government Decree on the provision of a tax deduction for treatment in a sanatorium contains a closed list of medical services for which you can receive a tax deduction.

At the legislative level, the maximum amount of tax deduction per applicant is established. The maximum tax compensation is 120,000 rubles. That is, since personal income tax is paid at a rate of 13%, the maximum amount of compensation will be 15.6 thousand rubles. Amounts in excess of this value cannot be compensated, nor are they subject to transfer to a future tax period.

The only thing that can be done to receive a larger compensation is to pay for the trip from the spouses' funds and obtain various payment certificates, then the tax deduction will be provided to both the husband and wife.

Where to apply to receive compensation for the sanatorium

A social deduction can be issued through the employer or the regional branch of the tax authority. However, even when applying at the place of work, you will have to contact the tax service to receive a notification of the right to receive a tax deduction.

What documents are needed in order to receive compensation for the sanatorium

Checks for the purchase of high-value medicines and for payment for medical procedures must be drawn up specifically for the applicant making a tax deduction, but the taxpayer's parents and children could use the services.

In order to be eligible for compensation for treatment in a sanatorium, you must prove what expenses you incurred and what the funds were used for. To do this, you will have to prepare a number of documents that must be submitted to the Federal Tax Service:

• an application for the provision of tax compensation for payment for treatment in a domestic sanatorium (a sample will be issued on the spot);
• certificate in the form 2-NDFL, which must be obtained from the accountant of the enterprise;
• tax return in the form of 3-NDFL for the year when the treatment was paid for (medical services, their cost, additional expenses for recovery must be indicated);
• documentary evidence of the degree of kinship with persons whose treatment was paid for by the taxpayer (this may be a certificate of marriage, the birth of a child);
• originals and photocopies of documents confirming the costs (contract with a sanatorium-resort institution, certificate of depositing funds to pay for the service, checks for the purchase of medicines, a voucher).

In the event that an employee of the company decided to receive tax compensation through the manager, an application and a notification from the Federal Tax Service on the right to deduction must be brought to the accounting department.

Compensation for the sanatorium for pensioners

People of retirement age can claim reimbursement for the cost of a sanatorium in 2 cases:

1. If a citizen began to receive a pension, quit his job, but did not draw up a deduction for treatment while working at the enterprise, although the ticket was purchased during the period of employment.
2. If a pensioner continues to work after retirement, and personal income tax deductions of 13% are made from his salary.

Pensioners are entitled to a free ticket to a sanatorium, since it is included in the package of social services, and 543 rubles are deducted from the pension every month for the possibility of providing it.

Treatment in a sanatorium is not cheap, but if you have the necessary documents, part of the costs that were spent on treatment can be compensated. The Tax Code of the Russian Federation reserves the right for the taxpayer to receive a social tax deduction for treatment provided by a medical institution. The list of medical services provided, which are included in the tax deduction, is considered in the Decree of the Government of Russia.

To receive a deduction, you must come to the tax office with the following documents: an application for monetary compensation, an income tax return for the past year, copies of the treatment agreement and a copy of the license of the medical institution. You also need to take with you a certificate from the accounting department on the amount of income at the place of work, a certificate of payment for medical services, payment and personal documents. A copy of the license of the sanatorium can be obtained from the organization that sold the ticket. Certificates that confirm payment for services and treatment are issued by all healthcare institutions that have the necessary permission to conduct their activities. Get them better during your stay in a sanatorium. After an appropriate check, the tax authority will make a decision, if it is positive, the funds will be transferred to the taxpayer's account.

Tourist travel reimbursement

If, for certain reasons, which are prescribed in the law on tourism activities of the Russian Federation, a tourist refuses a tour, he may demand that the tour operator reimburse its cost. The amount that was spent by the tour operator on organizing the trip is non-refundable, but all this should be documented. The cost of air tickets must be returned, even if the employee of the company says the opposite. If the reason for the refusal of the tour is a threat to the safety of the tourist in the country where it was planned to go, the full cost of the tour is reimbursed. If the tour operator is delaying the payment of compensation, it is important to remember that each day of delay provides for the accrual of a penalty in the amount of three percent of the entire cost of the tour.

Child travel allowance

In order to receive compensation for a ticket to a children's health camp, you should contact the department of education in your place of residence. It is important to collect and submit the following documents: an application for compensation, documents for paying for a tour, a parent's passport, a child's birth or adoption certificate, his passport if he is 14 years old. It is also necessary to provide a return voucher, which confirms his stay in the camp. It must contain the initials of the child in full, the cost of the tour and the length of stay. Both certified copies of these documents and their originals must be submitted.

58 Penza region

Publication date: 08/23/2016

As a place of rest, many Penzyaks still choose various sanatoriums. But not all of them know that part of the funds for such treatment (both yours and your children and parents) can be returned. Today "ML" will tell you what needs to be done to compensate yourself for at least some amount spent on vacation.

Documents for withdrawal

If you work (this also applies to working pensioners), paying personal income tax, and paid for your treatment or the treatment of your children, spouse, wards or parents, then you can count on a tax deduction or, in other words, reclaim 13 percent of the cost of treatment. In order to receive a tax deduction for treatment, you must prepare the following documents:

• tax declaration in form 3-NDFL;

• a contract for treatment with annexes and additional agreements to it (if concluded);

• a certificate issued by a medical institution on payment for medical services for submission to the tax authorities (the form of the certificate was approved by order of the Ministry of Health of Russia and the Ministry of Taxes of Russia of July 25, 2001 No. 289 / BG-3-04 / 256);

• A document confirming the degree of relationship (for example, a birth certificate);

• A document confirming the conclusion of marriage, provided in case of payment for the treatment of a spouse (for example, a marriage certificate);

• Application for VAT refund.

Tour minus treatment

You will not be able to receive a tax deduction if the medical services that were provided to you are not included in a special list. It was approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 201 dated March 19, 2001. You will also not be able to count on a refund if the organization where you received treatment does not have a license to provide medical services, if the treatment was carried out at the expense of the employer or outside the Russian Federation, or if you did not have income at the rate of 13 percent. An incomplete package of documents or documents executed in violation also do not give you the right to receive a tax deduction.

One more detail concerning sanatorium-and-spa treatment. 13 percent will not be returned from the entire cost of a voucher to a sanatorium, since it usually also includes the cost of accommodation and meals, but only the cost of treatment. Therefore, when relaxing in a sanatorium, make sure to get a separate certificate of expenses for treatment.

If the organization gives you a certificate with the amount for the entire voucher, then you will also need a contract for the provision of services, which should specify what is included in the cost of the voucher. If you rested, for example, in a boarding house and paid only for accommodation and meals, then you will not be able to count on a tax deduction.

Action algorithm

To receive a tax deduction, you must do the following.

Step 1. Collect the necessary documents (a package of documents required for registration of a tax deduction is given above).

Step 2 Fill out a 3-NDFL declaration and an application for a tax refund.

Step 3 Submit documents to the tax office. In person, or through a representative (by proxy), or by mail in electronic form via telecommunication channels or through.

Step 4 Get the results of a tax inspection on the provision of a social tax deduction. The withdrawal process takes up to four months.

Where to go

There are two ways to get a tax deduction for medical treatment.

The first one is through a tax agent (employer). In this case, the employer provides the taxpayer with a deduction before the end of the tax period (calendar year).

The taxpayer should apply in writing to the employer and submit a notice issued by the tax office to confirm eligibility for the treatment tax credit. In this case, the taxpayer does not have to fill out a tax return.

The second way is through the tax authority. In this case, it will be necessary to fill out a tax return in the form of 3-NDFL at the end of the tax period.

If the treatment was carried out and paid for, for example, in 2015, then you should apply for the appointment of a deduction this year. If the treatment was in 2016, then the deduction can be applied starting from January 2017.

Good to know for everyone!

Here is what is included in the list of medical services, the payment of which is taken into account when calculating the social tax deduction:

1. Diagnostic and treatment services in the provision of emergency medical care to the population.

2. Services for diagnosis, prevention, treatment and medical rehabilitation in the provision of outpatient medical care to the population (including in day hospitals and by general (family) practitioners), including medical examination.

3. Services for diagnosis, prevention, treatment and medical rehabilitation in the provision of inpatient medical care to the population (including day hospitals), including medical examination.

4. Services for diagnostics, prevention, treatment and medical rehabilitation in the provision of medical care to the population in sanatorium-and-spa institutions.

5. Health education services provided to the population.

Social measures aimed at supporting various categories of citizens include health improvement measures. As part of the implementation of social policy, beneficiaries are given vouchers for sanatorium treatment. This measure is necessary for additional medical and social rehabilitation of certain categories of citizens.

Legislative principles

The main normative acts regulating the allocation of funds for the restoration of health are:

1. Law No. 178-FZ, which came into force on July 17, 1999.
2. Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation No. 328 dated December 29, 2004, containing the procedure for allocating preferential directions for rehabilitation.

The above normative act contains important (for the population) principles for the implementation of social measures to organize health improvement. They are as follows:

• referral to a sanatorium is allocated at the initiative of the applicant;
• in the form of a standard document;
• The applicant must meet two criteria:
  • have medical indications for referral for treatment (prevention);
  • belong to one of the privileged categories.

Let's consider the criteria in more detail. Many people think that the preferential form is a way to relax in the resort area for free. This is only partly true. In fact, it is necessary to have a disease that is treated in a sanatorium. There are many diagnoses for social recovery. Namely, the treatment:

• of cardio-vascular system;
• musculoskeletal system;
• gastrointestinal tract and more.

Important: the doctor issues a referral for preference only to patients:

• dealing with relevant complaints;
• having a definite diagnosis;
• regularly undergoing treatment for one reason or another.

Rules for allocating health subsidies

The allocation of directions occurs strictly according to the rules established by law. Briefly, this means the following:

1. Wellness activities, as well as stay in a medical institution, are financed from the federal budget.
2. It follows that each subsidy must be substantiated by documentary evidence of:
   • preferential category;
   • the need for a healing effect (doctor's certificate).
3. A report on the use of funds for the intended purpose (tear-off coupon) is also required.

Categories of beneficiaries

The federal social program covers a fairly wide range of people. Therapeutic and recreational activities are provided for the following categories of citizens:

1. WWII participants:
   • soldiers and officers;
   • that period;
   • former blockade survivors with award signs;
2. (from 1 to 3 and disabled since childhood);
3. war veterans in hot spots;
4. family members;
5. :
   • military;
   • equated;
   • reserve officers;
   • labor veterans;
6. Heroes of Russia and the USSR.

Hint: in addition to the voucher, beneficiaries receive compensation for travel to the place of recovery:

• ground transport;
• and where this is not possible, by airlines.

• sanatorium treatment - 127.9 rubles;
• travel by intercity transport to the place of treatment and back - 18.2 rubles;
• travel by railway transport of suburban traffic - 101.1 rubles.

Which resorts can you visit?

State bodies involved in the allocation of preferences conclude contracts with institutions providing health services. You can get a ticket only to the rest house:

1. an agreement with which has been reached by the body to which the applicant applied;
2. operating in the Russian legal field, located anywhere in the Russian Federation;
3. if necessary, specialists will try to find an institution in the region of residence (if it is difficult to move);
4. military pensioners and equated are sent only to departmental health institutions.

Do you need on the subject? and our lawyers will contact you shortly.

Who distributes tickets in 2019

In general, the Social Insurance Fund (FSS) is responsible for distributing the budget for treatment. This organization works with citizens through social security agencies. But there are exceptions. Thus, the Ministry of Defense independently supports pensioners. To receive a health benefit, you need to address an application to the relevant Department of the Ministry of Defense.

Thus, you should contact:

• to the department of social protection on a territorial basis;
• to the Department of Defense, dealing with the distribution of departmental subsidies.

The algorithm for obtaining a subsidy for sanatorium treatment is as follows:

1. Visit the attending physician and declare the desire to go to the sanatorium. The doctor will send you for an examination. Based on its results, a special document is issued - form No. 070 / y-04.
2. With a certificate and a passport, you should go to the social security or military commissariat at the place of residence to write an application.
3. Wait for a response about queuing.
4. As soon as all those who previously claimed the privilege are satisfied, receive a document and go for treatment.

What documents to prepare

To receive a subsidy for sanatorium and resort recovery, a minimum package of papers is required. These are the confirmations:

1. identity - a passport;
2. the fact of medical insurance -;
3. preferential category:
   • corresponding certificate to almost everyone:
     • WWII participants of different groups;
     • Chernobyl victims;
     • pensioners;
     • retired officers;
   • disabled persons provide a certificate of medical and social expertise;
   • Heroes are required to provide award documents;
   • labor veterans - an appropriate book;
4. the need for recreational activities - form No. 070 / y-04

What is a ticket

After consideration of the application, the applicant receives a document in his hands. It confirms the right to receive services at the expense of the state budget:

1. A specific institution (name and address are indicated in the ticket).
2. At certain times (the start and end dates of the course are also entered in the form).

Besides, the ticket is a personal document. It cannot be transferred to another person. It is also forbidden to divide the period of therapeutic measures between persons (this was done before to go to a family holiday home). The form states:

• name of the recipient;
• diagnosis;
• course duration from 18 to 42 days.

Hint: along with some beneficiaries, accompanying persons can go to the sanatorium:

• with minors with disabilities;
• with disabled people of the 1st group.

Accompanying persons are given preference on different conditions. They depend on the category of beneficiary. The ticket can be free or with a discount of 25-50%. So, military pensioners can take their spouse with them. Her recovery will cost 50% of the total cost.

Important: the voucher is required once a year (there are exceptions).

Prerogatives of certain groups of citizens

Reserve officers are entitled to preferences for treatment if their term of service is more than twenty years. Military pensioners receive a subsidy once a year. At the same time, they can take their spouse with them to the departmental dispensary (for 50% of the cost).

The same rule applies to retirees with sufficient length of service. The rest of the preferences are not given. Military pensioners include law enforcement officers who have left the service, and some other categories of civil servants.

Important: if there are several reasons, a social direction (free of charge) is allocated only once a year for any one at the beneficiary's choice.

Is there a subsidy for pensioners?

According to the norms of the current legislation, through the department of the FSS, referrals can be received by:

1. labor veterans;
2. Retirees, including those who work.

The conversion algorithm is described above. Only documents should be carried to the FSS. The basis for the appeal is:

• pensioner's certificate;
• certificate No. 070/u-04.

additional information

The above general rules for allocating health subsidies are sometimes violated. So, for medical reasons, a beneficiary can be given a referral to a sanatorium at the expense of the state budget twice a year:

• the decision is made by the doctor;
• he issues a certificate with a special mark.

Sometimes you have to wait in line for quite a long time. This is due to the small number of institutions providing rare treatment. It is advisable to apply ahead of time, immediately after receiving the certificate. This increases the chance of a quick satisfaction.

Attention: specialists are obliged to notify the applicant about the availability of a free voucher two weeks in advance. True, sometimes they have to look for a client for a "burning" tour, when a person suddenly refuses to travel.

Last changes

In the middle of 2018, the previously abolished right to free travel to the place of treatment in a departmental sanatorium was returned to military pensioners. Now retirees and reserve officers of the Armed Forces and the Navy, including midshipmen and warrant officers with over 20 years of service, as well as their families, can count on free travel to the place of treatment once a year. For vouchers, you must contact the military registration and enlistment office at the place of military registration. This applies to any type of public vehicle. The exact category of travel comfort (class of a compartment, cabin, cabin, etc.) depends on the military rank.

Our experts monitor all changes in legislation in order to provide you with reliable information.

• a child with a disability;
• participant of the Great Patriotic War;
• a combat veteran or a serviceman who during the Second World War was a member of the active army;
• a person from among those who have the insignia of a resident of besieged Leningrad during the Second World War, as well as those who worked at strategically important facilities for the country in wartime;
• patients from among working citizens of the country who, in accordance with a certain list of diseases, need to be treated after hospital conditions;
• an employee and a pensioner of some state structures (the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, the Department of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, the Government, etc.) in accordance with certain norms of departmental regulatory legal acts.

An unused voucher to a sanatorium by these citizens is subject to compensation, but only in cases strictly defined by law.

Get compensation and benefits

Based on the results of consideration of the application, the amount constituting tax deductions will be returned to the bank account of the taxpayer. Amount and terms The amount of compensation for independently purchased vouchers is set by each region separately.

Important

An application for the need to compensate for the recovery of children must be submitted no later than two calendar months from the date the specific voucher expires. For example, for orphans and those who are brought up in a foster or patronage family in Moscow and meet the above conditions, compensation is made in the amount of 100% of the cost of the voucher, as well as the full cost of travel to and from the place of rest.

Retiree travel allowance

• the sanatorium is located on the territory of our country (Russia) and has a license to conduct activities aimed at improving the health of citizens;
• the taxpayer paid for himself, his spouse, minor child/ward or parents;
• a citizen has an official source of income from which income tax is withheld at a rate of 13 percent.

Even a pensioner can apply for compensation if:

• having reached the age of retirement, he continues to work and receive a salary subject to a 13% tax;
• he issued a pension and left the workplace, but did not have time to use the personal income tax refund for the ticket purchased when he was still working.

It is worth remembering that in order to receive benefits, you need to independently collect documents and contact them with the tax service.

Is it possible to receive monetary compensation instead of a ticket?

At the same time, you must have documents confirming your upcoming stay in a sanatorium, rest home or camp site (it will be enough to present a ticket). This will be followed by consideration of your appeal by the same territorial body of the PFR, and a positive decision on the provision of the compensation you request will be made if there are special coupons (or referrals) available for you to receive a travel card from the transport organization.

Info

The FIU independently concludes an agreement with a transport organization, which in turn takes responsibility for your delivery to the sanatorium and returning you home. For a transport organization, the presence of this coupon guarantees that the cost of the ticket will be reimbursed by the local PFR from the budget.

How to get social vouchers to a sanatorium for pensioners?

For superior rooms you will have to pay extra from your own pocket.

• Single pensioners who do not want to share a room with a stranger also need to pay for single occupancy.
• If you want to undergo procedures that are not included in the price of the tour, you will have to pay for them with your own funds.
• Money may be required to pay for leisure activities - excursions, concerts, etc.

Can I take my grandson with me? You can, if the policy of the sanatorium allows the presence of children. In any case, you need to contact the medical institution, clarify the availability of places and agree on the conditions of the settlement. Of course, the child will have to buy a ticket for his own money. Is it possible to change the dates of the tour? No, the tour date cannot be changed.

However, no one bothers you to leave earlier, or, if there are free places in the sanatorium, to stay for a longer time, paying extra days.

How can a pensioner receive compensation for travel to and from a vacation spot?

It is important to remember that if you made a trip, for example, in 2013, then the deadline for submitting documents for receiving compensation is December 31, 2014. Don't forget the biennium. If you do not have time to apply on this issue, then the payment of compensation will not be made.
Documents required to receive compensation for travel When submitting documents for compensation, you must personally appear at the territorial office of the FIU at your place of residence. Next, get a special form in the prescribed form for writing an application with a request for payment of travel compensation. Or you can contact a specialized multifunctional center that provides municipal and state services.

Is it possible to reimburse the costs of the sanatorium to pensioners

But please note that in this case, the term “family members” means the spouse of a military pensioner and children under the age of 18 (if the children of the beneficiary are full-time students, they can take advantage of a 50% discount up to 23 years old). The same vouchers are provided free of charge if the former military man belongs to one of the following categories:

• Hero of the USSR and Russia;
• Hero of Socialist Labor;
• full cavalier of the Order of Glory;
• full holder of the Order of Labor Glory.

For a quarter of the price, vouchers to departmental sanatoriums can also be purchased by widows of military pensioners - Heroes and holders of Glory and Labor Glory.

Tours and weekend excursions for pensioners in 2018 There are no regulations in the legislation providing for pension benefits for tourist trips.

So what about vacation packages for retirees and veterans? hard to get?

• the voucher to the sanatorium was paid for by the citizen’s own savings for himself and / or family members (if the voucher was paid by the employer, compensation for the sanatorium cannot be provided);
• if compensation is issued when buying medicines, they must be recommended for use by a doctor, as evidenced by the written prescription (the medicines must be bought for their own money, not on benefits).

It is worth noting that, although the law provides for the provision of compensation not only for treatment (in the case of a social deduction - only for treatment), but also for rehabilitation, medicines, procedures, classes with a personal instructor and other services of a health-improving enterprise, accommodation and a ticket to sanatorium and back will have to pay at your own expense. The only thing is that the fare can be paid at the expense of the budget for the privileged category of citizens.

Compensation for a ticket to a sanatorium

Attention

If the taxpayer is inactive, no compensation will be provided to him. How much money can be returned General rules In accordance with par.

Tax Code of the Russian Federation, compensation for sanatorium treatment (social deduction) cannot exceed 13% of 120,000 rubles for one year, which in its “pure” form is 15,600 rubles. In addition, you can only receive income tax refunds on funds that were spent directly on paying for medical services.

You should not count on compensation for travel, excursion services, entertainment programs and other additional services. But if a visitor to the sanatorium used additional medical services that are not included in the cost of the main voucher, he can return part of the money without problems - the main thing is not to forget to get a document confirming the fact that such costs were incurred.

Low-income families in Moscow can count on compensation for 50% of the total cost of the tour, but the final amount should not exceed 5,000 rubles. If it is higher, then it will not be possible to receive more than this established amount. An application for compensation payments must be considered within one month from the date of submission of the application for compensation. Based on the results of the consideration, a decision should be made to satisfy the claim or to refuse compensation. Compensation is made by the state body in charge of cultural issues in a particular region, or by the department of social protection. When calculating the amount of compensation, the number of days spent in a health facility will be taken into account. It is not payable to stay in a sanatorium on a voucher purchased for more than 21 calendar days, the number of days that exceeds the period established by law.
Registration of permits for the listed categories of citizens is somewhat different. Conditions for issuing a social voucher to pensioners Every citizen of our country who has officially retired has the right to receive a social voucher. And it does not matter how this happened - upon reaching retirement age, preferential service or for medical reasons. The main thing is to have a certificate issued by the Pension Fund in accordance with all the rules. This right can be exercised once a year. Although there are some exceptions. For serious medical reasons, you can get an additional ticket if the doctors deem it necessary. True, in practice this is rarely used, but there is a possibility, take note. Important! You cannot use the right twice. If you received a ticket as a regular pensioner, then it is impossible to go for treatment a second time using another benefit.

Receipt of monetary compensation for a ticket to pensioners

For example, you may be a veteran. Two programs are available to you - as a regular pensioner and as a veteran. Going for treatment twice on different benefits will not work.

A social ticket is issued on the basis of a certificate from a medical institution. The main condition for granting the right to free treatment to an ordinary pensioner is precisely medical indications.

Doctors must confirm that you require spa treatment. As a rule, people who have reached retirement age already have a history of a number of chronic diseases, it remains only to prioritize, to choose a "sore" that requires more attention.

Important! Free vouchers are issued only to pensioners who do not work. A waiver of monetary compensation for this benefit must be issued.
