This submission outlines the delivery of a Claim, Payment and Entitlement Web Service to Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) from the Department of Social Protection (DSP).

The medical devices list included in the Health Application Notification (SUT) are the basis for reimbursing medical devices. In the medical devices list, all the medical devices to be reimbursed are presented. On the other hand, since health service providers define their own medical devices, there is no application standard.  

According to Law No. 5510 (Social insurance and Universal Health Insurance Law) some short- and long-term ınsurance benefits and similar payments, called 'Personal payments’ are paid through the beneficiaries' ID number on the 8th-14th days of a month. If someone who has payments sent to the bank misses these pre-determined days, the benefits are sent back to the SSI’s accounts. This process is repeated every month until the individual receives the payment.

Temporary Incapacity Allowance Programme (e-Payment) is a software which the Turkish Social Security Institution put into operation in July 2012 especially for insured persons who have a service contract with one or more employers. In August 2015, it was upgraded to also include the self-employed.

This programme:

The integration of student certificates to the Health Benefits Rights Programme (SPAS) involves the electronic flow of data between the Turkish Social Security Institution (SSI) and both the Higher Education Institution (YÖK) and the National Education Ministry (MEB) on up-to-date student certificates.

The groundwork to develop the software started at the beginning of 2013, and finished at the end of 2013, but the entire project was completed in February 2014 and the flow of data on student certificates began electronically.

Provision 18 of the Social Insurance and Universal Health Insurance Law (Code Number 5510) states that temporary incapacity allowances may be paid by employers by deducting the amount from their premium (contribution) payments.

The programme implements the deduction between the Turkish Social Security Institution and employers who signed a specific protocol with the SSI on the acceptance of the automatic deduction via e-payment (for the Temporary Incapacity Allowances) programme.

The premium pension system has one of the world's most powerful discount models, giving pension savers the opportunity to save in UCITS-funds with substantially lower fund fees. This gives our pension savers an average 15-20% higher premium pension.

In 2015, the fund companies took out approximately 6.2 billion SEK in fees from our funds' shares. 4.2 billion SEK (67%) was paid back to the Swedish Pensions Agency and will be distributed back to the pension savers.

To enable the freedom of movement on the unified labour market of the EU, the Croatian Pension Insurance Institution (CPII) allows users to request and receive through the website (www.mirovinsko.hr) an electronic record (ERPS) of the data recorded in the CPII electronic database (information on the insuree's employment status).

Spinal injuries (paraplegic/tetraplegic patients) and/or traumatic brain injuries (cranial/brain trauma) confront not only the injured individual but also the family members, the service providers involved and the SUVA with great challenges.

The Croatian Pension Insurance Institute (CPII) receives the death data for Croatian pension beneficiaries residing abroad on the principle of delivered Life Certificates and letters received from the competent foreign pension institutions. That way, CPII receives the beneficiaries' death data after a certain delay thereby causing possible undue payments of pension amounts.
