42. Do you currently have benefits in any of the following healthcare institutions?
This question seeks to determine if the healthcare institution can effectively attend to the health of the interviewee, that's to say it deals with current benefits. "Yes" or "No" will be marked for each of the options according to what corresponds. In the case in which the interviewee doesn't have current benefits in any assistance institution, "No" will be marked in all.
The annotations that will be made according to the following criteria:
Ministry of Public Health [MSP]. This includes all the departments of the MSP. It is considered that he has current benefits when he has a current card of assistance.
Clinical hospital. This is distinguished from the MSP for depending on the University of the Republic. As in the previous case it is considered that he has current benefits when he has a current card of assistance.
Police health services. For the people who declare having current benefits in the Police health services you should investigate the way that this benefit was acquired. The attention in the Police health services can be a monetary benefit as well as for the families. Being such, it must be included in part G of Incomes as mutual quotas not declared in the salary of the worker that generates the benefits. In the case of being retired or a renter this should be noted in the part G3 of Incomes as transfers like "Scholarships, subsidies, or donations from the country".
Remember that the right of attendance is not necessarily applicable to all the family, so that you must dig deeper to determine if access is a benefit or a voluntary decision of the members of the household.
A necessary control for this question is to verify that the type of occupation of one of the members of the household corresponds with the attention rights in the Police health services or that some member of the household is retired from the police.
[p. 40]
Army health services. Same as the previous case.
Municipal clinic. You are considered as having current benefits when you have a corresponding membership card.
BPS health area [social security institution] (family assignments). Note here all those people who have rights to healthcare in the different services of this system (maternal, infant center, etc.). Just as in the case of the MSP and the municipality clinics, it is considered that you have current rights when you have a corresponding membership card.
IAMC [collective medical care institutions]. Note here all those who habitually have care privileges in these institutions. Having current benefits implies having a card, receipt, or other document that make possible that attention, without other paperwork, in the moment needed. Clarify that it is not necessary for the interviewee to present the interviewer with this type of documentation.
Private partial medical insurance. This corresponds to the people who declare having healthcare benefits in the form of insurance that doesn't cover everything. This type of insurance doesn't cover the hospitalization. You must not confuse this with the mobile medical emergencies that will be asked about further on. An example is the health insurance of the ANDA.
Private partial surgical insurance. This corresponds with those who have healthcare benefits only in the case of hospitalization. There exist, for example, private partial surgical insurance in the Britannic hospital.
Complete private health insurance. This corresponds to the people who have healthcare benefits in the form of insurance that covers everything.
Other. This will only be used for the cases that are not covered in the previous items and will always include a corresponding annotation. Examples of cases in the other category are people who have healthcare benefits in the medical centers of the ANCAP or the BHU or BSE.
