Title: Landmark Agreement Finalized to Enhance Healthcare Coverage for Social Security Retirees
In a significant move to bolster the social welfare system, a new and comprehensive supplementary health insurance contract for retirees and pensioners of the Social Security Organization has been officially finalized. This initiative underscores the ongoing commitment to improving the quality of life for citizens who have dedicated their careers to national service.
Key Financial Provisions
The newly ratified contract establishes a substantial supplementary insurance package valued at 720,000 Tomans per individual. The financial model is designed to be cooperative, with 470,000 Tomans being deducted from the retiree’s pension, while the remaining balance is covered as the share of the Social Security Organization. This structure ensures the sustainability and enhanced scope of the healthcare services provided.
Comprehensive National Coverage
This agreement guarantees a full year of expanded healthcare services for all Social Security retirees and pensioners across the nation. To facilitate this, a vast network of service providers is now operational. This includes over 40 branch offices, approximately 710 authorized agents, and an impressive 11,000 medical and diagnostic centers, all prepared to deliver services to retirees, pensioners, and their families in accordance with the new commitments.
This development represents a concrete step in strengthening the social safety net and reflects a continued focus on the well-being of the nation’s retired community.
