Electronic cash receipts will be issued for medical services in Armenia

YEREVAN, March 4. /ARKA/. The National Assembly of Armenia adopted amendments to the Tax Code in the second and final reading at its session on Wednesday.

MP Tsovinar Vardanyan from the ruling Civil Contract faction stated that from now on, citizens in Armenia will be issued an electronic cash receipt for all medical services.

"When using POS terminals, this law is in effect—a cash receipt is issued, but with payment terminals, this was not possible. Now, all this data will be collected in the Armed system program, specifically about the services used by citizens. This refers to the generation of electronic cash receipts," Vardanyan noted.

According to her, in the future, it will also be possible to analyze the entire process and identify problems that citizens frequently encounter regarding health insurance. Thus, a unified information system will be in place in the long term.

The deputy recalled that currently, when using medical services, people are required to make payments in a cashless format, and these payments can be made through POS terminals and those installed in medical centers.
