The very first documents that parents must issue for their newly born baby are his birth certificate and registration. But an important document is the compulsory health insurance policy. It is he who guarantees the right to receive medical care for a child free of charge in any medical institution of the Russian Federation. It is not difficult to get a medical policy for a child. Plus, it doesn't take long.
Instructions
Step 1
A medical policy for a child can be obtained from an insurance company that provides compulsory medical insurance for the unemployed population at the place of permanent registration (registration) of one of the parents. This is very convenient for those parents who have not yet managed to register their baby, because there is no strict attachment of the medical policy to the place of registration of the child himself.
Step 2
Mom or dad should apply for a medical policy for a child within 3 months from the date of his birth. A three-month-old baby who does not have a health insurance policy already loses the right to provide free medical care. And this means that it is not worth putting off until later the moment of receiving this important document for the baby.
Step 3
In order to obtain a medical policy for a child, mom and dad will need a minimum package of necessary documents: a passport of one of the parents with a permanent registration mark and a baby's birth certificate.
Step 4
The very procedure for obtaining a medical policy for a child is very simple. Some insurance organizations issue an important document for a baby within a couple of minutes after a mother or father applies for it. Other companies, at the time of making the policy, give parents a temporary document that performs all the functions of the present, and set a date when mom or dad can come up and get a ready-made medical policy for their child.
