What is it?

INPS, through a special annual competition tender, provides members of the Unified Scheme of Credit and Social Benefits with a free screening service for the prevention and early diagnosis of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

Screenings can be carried out at facilities accredited by the Institute through the accreditation process.

Who is it aimed at?

All structures operating in the health field are eligible for the accreditation procedures:

  • medical centres;
  • multi-specialist clinics;
  • analysis laboratories.

These facilities are also allowed in aggregate form as long as they are equipped with instruments and specialised medical personnel for the performance, within the individual facility, of the following services:

  • the three types of services envisaged by the notice of accreditation for screening, for the prevention and early diagnosis of oncological diseases: skin tumours, tumours of the male reproductive tract, tumours of the female reproductive tract;
  • services specified in the accreditation notice for the screening of cardiovascular diseases.

How does it work?

The companies concerned may access the service and submit a claim for accreditation, providing the required declarations, if:

  • they meet the requirements stipulated in the notice
    of accreditation;
  • they have registered for the electronic services using
    the methods indicated in the same notice. 

Once logged into the service, you can choose whether to be accredited for:

  • oncological screening;
  • cardiological screening;
  • both.

Claim

WHEN CAN I CLAIM?

The claim must be submitted within the deadlines set out in the accreditation notice published in the Welfare, Assistance and Mutuality (in Italian) section.

HOW CAN I CLAIM?

The claim can be submitted through the online service, by selecting the item "Welfare Benefits Portal – Screening Operator (from 2025)” and by logging in with your credentials.

Service “Supplier Companies Scheme Welfare - Accreditation and verification (colleges, screening, remote care) is instead focused on the benefits from previous years.

Processing times of the measure

The deadline to define the measure was set at 30 days by the Regulation for the definition of the terms to conclude the administrative proceedings adopted by INPS pursuant to Article 2 of Law no. 241/1990.

The table (in Italian) attached to the Regulation shows both the deadlines for defining the measures established by the Institute that are longer than the normal 30-day period, and the indication of the relative manager.
