What this service does for you
SOVAR is the joint contact point for AHV, IV and supplementary benefits in the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden. After a stroke, the IV registration is submitted here. The office decides on the helplessness allowance and the assistance contribution, and it plans the vocational reintegration. All three insurance branches come together at the same counter in Herisau.
