What documents constitute proof of health insurance?

Due to the introduction of the electronic verification system for beneficiaries' eligibility (eWUŚ), patient eligibility is verified each time before services are provided based on the PESEL number. In the case of a child under three months of age, who may not yet have their own PESEL number, eligibility for services is confirmed by the PESEL number of the child's parent or guardian.

If there is no registration in the system, the patient, if he or she confirms insurance, will have the opportunity to complete a declaration of the patient's right to health care services.

On this basis, the patient may be admitted on a given day free of charge for a service contracted with the National Health Fund or have a reimbursed prescription issued during a commercial visit.

Do I need to have an insurance document when signing the declaration of accession to primary healthcare?

Since January 1, 2013, due to the introduction of the electronic verification system for beneficiaries' eligibility (eWUŚ), patient eligibility has been verified each time before services are provided based on the PESEL number. For children up to three months of age, who may not yet have their own PESEL number, eligibility for services is confirmed by the PESEL number of the child's parent or guardian.

If the system doesn't register, the patient, if they confirm their insurance, will be able to complete a declaration of their entitlement to healthcare services. Based on this, the patient can be admitted free of charge for a service contracted with the National Health Fund (NFZ) on a given day. Therefore, carrying a current insurance document is not required. At registration, the patient must present an ID document (ID card, passport, driver's license, or, for students under 18, a school ID, and a biometric ID for children) along with their PESEL number.

During a private visit, can a doctor issue a referral for laboratory/diagnostic tests, rehabilitation, to a clinic or to a hospital under the National Health Fund?

W ramach leczenia komercyjnego lekarz nie może wystawiać skierowań na badania refundowane przez Narodowy Fundusz Zdrowia. Wystawienie tego typu skierowań możliwe jest w tylko i wyłączenie w przypadku leczenia w poradniach i przychodniach, które podpisały w danym roku kalendarzowym umowę z wojewódzkim oddziałem Narodowego Funduszu Zdrowia. W większości przypadków na leczenie specjalistyczne wymagane jest skierowanie wystawione przez lekarza rodzinnego. Na badania specjalistyczne i rehabilitację pacjenta skierować może tylko i wyłączenie lekarz specjalista poradni NFZ, na podstawie udokumentowanej historii leczenia pacjenta w ramach tej poradni.

In life- or health-threatening situations, the doctor may issue a referral for hospital treatment.

What should I do if the eWUŚ system does not confirm my insurance?

If there is no registration in the system, the patient has the opportunity to complete a declaration of the patient's right to health care services, on the basis of which he or she can be admitted on a given day free of charge for a service contracted with the National Health Fund.

In such a situation, the patient should verify his or her insurance with the payer of contributions as soon as possible and, with this document, report to the appropriate branch of the National Health Fund, where he or she should explain the lack of registration in the eWUŚ system.
