Statute overview

About this statute

Kapitlet gäller ersättning för resekostnader. The State Council may issue rules on the reimbursement tariff for ambulance transport, and the tariff must be based on transport costs and available funds. The Ministry of Social Affairs and Health must hear the Social Insurance Institution when preparing the ordinance and any amendments. The provision also says the reimbursement basis for taxi use is the taxi maximum price, unless the Social Insurance Institution has agreed a lower price with the transport provider. An insured person may have a right to overnight allowance if pregnancy-related medical assessment forced an overnight stay near a health care unit and the stay caused proven costs. Special compensation is paid for medicine costs for severe and long-term diseases if the costs arose after the application was submitted to the Social Insurance Institution. The same rule also applies to clinical nutritional preparations and equivalent products.
