How and where to get a new CHI policy? Is it possible to get to the doctor on an expired policy?
told about this Vice-President of the All-Russian Union of Insurers Dmitry Kuznetsov:
— All CHI policies issued on the territory are termless. Another thing is that policies (including the old model) could be issued by a company that ceased to exist (due to the reorganization of several companies or exit from the market). But all citizens insured in such a company were transferred under the jurisdiction of another company. It is easiest to clarify which one is in the clinic at the place of residence, in the territorial CHI fund or by contacting the “Hot Line” of any insurance medical organization in your city. They will also tell you the address where you can get a new policy. A temporary certificate issued when replacing an old-style compulsory medical insurance policy is issued on the day of contacting the insurer and guarantees the receipt of free medical care in full. A CHI policy of a new sample will be provided to a citizen within 45 days. In addition, you can submit an application for choosing an insurance company (this is the name of the procedure for applying to a new insurer) in electronic form – through the State Services portal or through a personal account on the website of the territorial CHI fund.
