Now it is recommended to proceed as follows:
- Choose an insurance company.
- Submit a request for a policy.
- Get a temporary health insurance document.
- Pick up the policy at the appointed time.
Typically, the papermaking time is only 1 month. Until this time, the citizen is invited to use the temporary form of the document. But, as practice shows, this is usually not necessary.
Document types
Where is the medical policy number? The answer directly depends on the type of paper being studied. What forms of a document can be encountered in real life?
The following scenarios are known today:
- old-age medical insurance policy;
- temporary document;
- VHI policy;
- new sample of compulsory medical insurance;
- plastic card policy;
- UEC.
The number of the medical policy can be seen directly on this or that paper. This is a normal occurrence. But where exactly to look? Below we consider all the possible layouts.
Universal cards
Until 2017, the so-called universal cards were introduced and operated in Russia. This is plastic, which replaced a number of documents. For example, a policy, SNILS and passport.
The number of the medical insurance policy was not available in this case. There was only a card identifier. It is located on the front of the universal card. This is the only combination of numbers on the document. Since 2017, the mandatory UEC was canceled.
Voluntary insurance
How to find out the number of a voluntary insurance medical policy? You just need to look at the document in the established form.
Typically, the studied paper looks like a regular certificate, printed on a sheet of A4 form. On the front of it there is a row of numbers. This is the number. A series is also available here. First it is written (2 digits), then - the number. There is nothing supernatural in this. The studied components are located, as a rule, in the upper right corner of the sheet.
Old policy
The medical policy number can also be found on the old sample document. There are several forms.
The first old policy is a small booklet with one spread. In a similar paper, all data is located inside. The search for a series and a medical policy number does not cause any problems.
And there is an old-style policy in 2012. This is a leaf of blue color. It is placed in a special envelope. Has no turns. All information is written on the front of the document.
The policy number in this case is at the bottom of the paper. This is a combination of 16 components, where the series consists of 6 digits, and the remaining 10 are the number. What else can be found in practice?
Paper document
For example, there is a regular policy of compulsory medical insurance. This paper looks the same as the 2012 sample. The difference is only in the location of the data on the form of the established form.
The policy number under such circumstances is written on the top of the paper. It is usually signed as a "personal number." Or this combination is not marked at all.
It still consists of 16 digits. If necessary, the series are the first 6 components of the combination. But it is generally accepted that new policies have only a number. This is a normal occurrence.
Temporary form
As we already said, citizens sometimes have to use temporary policies. This form of paper also has a number. And a series. The main thing is to know where to look at the relevant data.
The number row is located in the upper right corner of the policy page. The document itself is a small sheet on which information about the insured person is written.
On a temporary policy you can find a series of 9 digits. The first 3 are a series, the remaining are a number. Now it’s clear where to look for the requested information. From now on, everyone will be able to make an appointment with the doctor via the Internet using the temporary form of the study paper.
A plastic card
The last sample of the policy is a completely new look. The latest help forms look like plastic cards. They are somewhat reminiscent of bank plastic.
The number of the medical policy in this case is also not so difficult to find out. But with the series problems are not excluded. Especially if you do not take into account some information.
The fact is that the number of the medical insurance policy is written on the front of the document, at the very bottom. This is the only combination on plastic. As in past situations, it consists of 16 components. Accordingly, the first 6 digits can be considered a series.
The back of the document also has a number line. It has only 11 elements. What it is? This series does not carry any useful information for citizens. It represents the number and series of the form on which the policy was issued.
