During the month of July, the Health Insurance Fund disbursed an amount exceeding 560 million denars to cover medical leave compensations, with the vast majority of these funds being dedicated to maternity leave.

The institution emphasizes that payments of benefits for temporary incapacity for work are being made uninterruptedly and within the set deadlines.
By July 28, 2026, even though the month had not yet ended, the Fund had transferred a total of 560.9 million denars for medical leave benefits. Of this amount, 420.3 million denars went to maternity leave benefits, while 140.6 million denars went to other categories of health leaves.
“This represents the highest amount ever paid in a single month for medical leave compensations, which once again demonstrates the Fund’s unwavering commitment to securing the necessary financial resources in real time for the exercise of insured persons’ rights,” the Fund announced, specifying that maternity payments are not experiencing any delays.
As far as maternity leave is concerned, the only prerequisite for starting payments is that the contributions for the first month have been settled according to the legal framework. Once this criterion is met, the compensation for each subsequent month is transferred immediately as soon as the respective month ends, after a preliminary administrative process, expert review, and approval by the responsible structures of the institution.
For other forms of medical leave, in addition to administrative processing, case review, and granting of approval, the legislation requires as a preliminary condition that the contributions for the month for which the payment is made have been paid beforehand. Precisely because of this legal obligation, in some individual cases, the payment process may be extended. This rule does not apply to maternity leave, where after the first payment, the procedure proceeds continuously.
The Fund remains focused on efficiently handling requests and ensuring an uninterrupted flow of compensations, so that insured persons may enjoy their legal rights without delays, concludes the FSSH announcement.
