Social security and insurance of employees

What

The social security and insurance taxes that the employer pays monthly, allow the employee to have access to social security benefits such as doctor/hospital visits, pension insurance or insurance in the case of unemployment.
Compulsory health insurance covers health care-medical examination, treatment, hospitalization, benefits for work injuries, not-work injuries, disease and problems during pregnancy. It also includes transportation benefit when health care institution is located at least 50 km from your place of residence.
As an employee, when you fulfill prescribed conditions you have the right on pension and disability insurance. You can use old age pension, early retirement, disability pension, pension in case of death, cash benefit in case of injuries and care of another person.

Steps

Step 1: When you start working, you (mostly your employer) need to submit application form to the Republic Health Care Insurance Fund or to the Pension and Disability Insurance Fund.

Step 2: After you’ve submitted application form, you need to wait for a couple of months for your health card. As a substitute for your health card, they will give you a certified paper, which you can use instead of card.

Step 3: After obtaining valid health card, you can go to a local community Health Care Center, clinics, hospitals where you have registered residence.
