The medical certificates search engine on the Institute’s website via “Servicios Públicos en Línea” (“Online Public Services”) enables the local offices to verify admissible (public) information on the certificates issued to the Institute’s workers in order to speed up responses to requests for information and prevent the misuse of lost or no longer valid certificates.

It is an online computer system allowing the registration of data contained on medical certificates issued by the Institute’s medical units. It includes a nominal, online database making it easier to control the issuance of medical certificates in accordance with current regulations.

Since January 2007 there have been 14,002,644 records of certificates issued at 1,101 medical units authorized to issue medical certificates in the Institute.

The registration is the responsibility of centralized and independent medical units.
