Court rules against denying travel expense for pensioner
The Supreme Constitutional Court ruled that the provision which deprives pensioners of coverage for transportation expenses to visit the doctor when they are unable to use regular means of transportation, if the doctor determines that their health condition requires special means, is unconstitutional. The court emphasized that this prohibition conflicts with the insurance protections guaranteed by the constitution, as it nullifies the purpose of the social insurance system, especially considering that pensioners often face health issues at an advanced age. The court estimated that the ruling would result in the National Organization for Social Insurance covering these expenses, with the implementation date to be determined after its publication.
