Question 10 · LEK · Issuing medical certificates
SIF (ZUS) certifying doctors control the correctness of issuing medical rulings on temporary incapacity for work. However, to this purpose, they are not allowed:
- A. to examine the insured person.
- B. to refer the insured person to SIF(ZUS) consultant doctor for specific examinations.
- C. to refer the insured person for hospital observations.
- D. to demand from the doctor who issued the ruling relevant medical documentations, information and explanations concerning the insured person.

Hint
The sickness benefits Act lists the control tools exactly; one option sends the patient somewhere this type of control does not allow.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
