Laskavý průvodce po sociálních dávkách

This monograph strives to present, in the simplest possible manner, the complex system of social welfare benefits awarded due to an unfavorable state of health and the assessment of the state of health by medical examiners for the purpose of granting these benefits.
Readers will not only gain current information on medial assessment issues, but also useful practical advice for submitting petitions for extending sickness benefits, disability pension, care allowance, mobility allowance, special aid allowance and identification cards for persons with disabilities. Numerous humorous illustrations in this book help readers navigate through the text.
As conclusions by medical examiners significantly affect health and peace of mind of a person in the bio-psycho-social context of the assessed person, this book aims to help readers decide whether they should petition for a social welfare benefit if their state of health deteriorates, and in fact, guide them through the entire process. The main goal of this publication is to acquaint readers with the complicated official and especially medical assessment language used during the process.
Although the publication is primarily intended for a wider readership, it also provides useful information to students of medical schools as well as general practitioners preparing for their specialization and experienced doctors. It will serve as a reliable guide for their daily practice, which is closely related to medical assessments.
