Medical certification

The Fund performs tasks in the field of medical certification pursuant to Art. 46 of the Farmers’ Social Insurance Act of 20 December 1990 and the Regulation of the Minister of Social Policy of 31 December 2004 on Medical Certification at the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund.

The certification in the organisational units of KRUS is two-instance proceedings, i.e.: in the first instance, decisions on the certification are taken by the Fund’s health care examiners, and in the second instance – by the Fund’s medical boards.

The certifications issued by the Fund’s health care examiners/medical boards concern:

  1. permanent and temporary total incapacity for work on a farm;
  2. permanent and long-term damage to health;
  3. inability to live independently;
  4. temporary incapacity for work for more than 180 days; 
  5. desirability of retraining due to permanent total incapacity for work on a farm;
  6. indications for therapeutic rehabilitation;
  7. other circumstances which determine granting of farmers’ social insurance benefits.

The procedure to determine the right to farmers’ social insurance benefits is free of charge.

A final decision of the Fund’s health care examiner or medical board is the basis for issuing a decision on the benefits provided for in the Act, the entitlement to which is conditional on whether one of the following has been determined:

  1. permanent or long-term damage to health or death as a result of an accident at work on a farm or agricultural occupational disease, or
  2. permanent or temporary total incapacity for work on a farm, or
  3. inability to live independently.

Pursuant to the Regulation of the Minister of Social Policy of December 31, 2004 on Medical Certification at the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund, direct and managing supervision over the decisions taken by the Fund’s health care examiners and medical boards is exercised by the President of KRUS.

Direct supervision under the authority of the President of KRUS is exercised by the Regional Health Examiner – Medical Certification Inspector. Managing supervision under the authority of the President of KRUS is exercised by the Chief Health Examiner of the Fund.
