Medical rehabilitation

Description

Under the statutory pension insurance scheme, rehabilitation measures are intended to compensate for functional restrictions in working life as a result of illness or disability. The aim is to enable people to remain in work or return to work. In addition to medical rehabilitation benefits, supplementary benefits can also be provided, for example payment of transitional benefits.

The caseworkers complete the application forms online and forward them directly to the relevant pension insurance provider. This ensures prompt and complete processing by the pension insurance provider.

If you are unable to come yourself, an authorised representative - with written power of attorney - can also submit the application on your behalf
