Rõivas noted that electronic system for issuing and forwarding certificates for incapacity for work will expedite transferring sick leave benefits for people.
“The electronic certificates for incapacity for work will also reduce costs for doctors and midwives incurred by issuing the certificates on paper, relieve employers from the obligation to submit certificates on paper to the Health Insurance Fund and thus reduce postage and time costs in submitting date,” he added.
