How to apply for the INPS check

Only those who have diseases related to the thyroid can apply.

Applications are to be submitted to the Local Health Authority by asking the GP to fill in on the site inps.it the introductory certificate (which is paid). In addition to the personal data, the doctor must indicate all the pathologies that can be evaluated to obtain disability.

The doctor issues the paper receipt of the operation online and provides a copy of the original medical certificate, which is valid for 90 days. From here, you can proceed with the actual application online or through a patronage, which indicates the first available date for the visit to the Asl Commission.

After the visit, the Commission will send the visit report to the home or via email in two copies, one with the health data and one with the final judgment and the degree of disability in percentage.
