Residents of Kherson region filed more than 3 thousand applications for rehabilitation funds

Since the beginning of the year, the regional branch of the Social Fund of Russia in the Kherson region received more than 3 thousand applications for technical means of rehabilitation. For residents with visual impairments, the fund satisfied 163 applications, allocating more than 4 million rubles for this purpose.

People with visual disabilities are provided with white canes, thermometers and tonometers with speech output, video enhancers, devices for reading “talking books”, braille displays and speech access programs. Products are selected individually - in accordance with the rehabilitation or habilitation program, which is issued by the Bureau of Medical and Social Expertise.

Rehabilitation funds can be purchased using an electronic certificate linked to the Mir card. Characteristics of products and addresses of stores accepting certificates are presented in the SFR electronic catalog. Residents of the region can order goods with delivery by Russian Post, transport companies or through Ozon - to the point of issue or by courier.

When buying online, you need to select a product with the mark “Payment with the FSS / SFR certificate” and specify the “World” card to which the certificate is tied. If the cost of the goods exceeds the available amount, the difference can be paid with your own funds from the same card.

Certificate can be issued through public services, SFR client service or MFC. To submit an application, you will need a passport and details of the Mir card. The appeal is considered within two working days.
