Submitting a claim to the Health Bureau


In order to receive payment, please submit a claim to the Ministry of Health at the Health Bureau in your area of residence.

The medical committee of the Ministry of Health is the body that will determine entitlement to payment, and will notify the claimant whether his request was approved or denied. The National Insurance Institute carries out the actual payments.

For clarifications regarding the claim, medical committees, entitlement and deterioration of medical condition, please write to the National Center for Scalp Ringworm Victims:

Phone: *5400
Fax: 03-5350615
Pavilion 17, Sheba Medical Center - 
Tel HaShomer, Ramat Gan 52621

or to the Health Bureau in your area of residence.


After receiving the decision of the medical committee, and the determination of the total weighted percentage of impediments by the Ministry of Health, the committee’s decision is transferred to the National Insurance Institute for implementation of payment.
