What this service does for you

If an AHV or IV pension is not enough after a stroke to pay for rent, home care, or a place in a care home, this office checks if you are entitled to supplementary benefits (Ergänzungsleistungen). Uncovered medical costs, such as co-payments for therapies and medicines, can also be paid through these benefits. One requirement is that your assets do not exceed certain limits. An informal application with the necessary documents is enough to start the calculation of your claim.
