The purpose of the data processing is the processing and payment of additional benefits in accordance with the fund’s rules, customer service, and statistics and reporting related to the reimbursements. The data is also processed for the purpose of managing the insurance relationship, customer service, and statistics and reporting based on the insurance relationship. The basis for the processing is the activity under the Insurance Fund Act (Article 9.2 of the General Data Protection Regulation).

Register protection

The employees of the fund and the members of the board who process personal data are obliged to maintain secrecy and confidentiality pursuant to section 165 of the Insurance Fund Act. These people have signed confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. The designated access rights and tasks limit the rights to process personal data. The data is kept in a file that is only accessible to the fund’s employees. In a customer service situation, the insured person is identified by their personal identity code.

Retention period of personal data

Documents relating to the insurance relationship are retained indefinitely. Benefit-related documents are kept in accordance with the Accounting Act for the current + 6 years or according to the purpose for which they are used. The documents are disposed of with due regard for data protection.

The request must be made to the fund in writing. The fund will generally provide the information within one month of the request, but within three months at the latest. The insured person will be provided with data that has not been provided on the basis of any previous request. If the insured person considers that the processing of data concerning them has infringed the GDPR, they have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority.

ABB:n vakuutuskassalla on käytössä sähköinen Iris-asiointipalvelu

Iriksen kautta pääset hakemaan korvauksia helposti, ja hakemusten ja liitteiden lähettäminen on turvallisempaa kuin normaalia sähköpostia käyttäen (hakemusten lähettämistä ei suositella sähköpostitse).

Pääset käyttämään Iristä kun pyydät ensin lupaa liittyä Irikseen. Pyynnön voit lähettää seuraavasti:

  • Mene osoitteeseen https://abb.omasairauskassa.fi
  • Kirjaudu Suomi.fi -palveluun omilla pankkitunnuksillasi
  • Vie omat tietosi ja laita rasti kohtaan ”Annan sairauskassalle luvan perustaa minulle profiilin Iris-asiointipalveluun. Hyväksymällä tämän sairauskassa liittää sinut sähköiseen korvauksenhakupalveluun.”

 

Pyynnön jälkeen kassalle tulee hyväksymispyyntö ja tunnukset avataan. Kun tunnukset on avattu, saat sähköpostiisi viestin Iris-palvelun käyttäjätunnuksen avaamisesta (kannattaa tarkistaa myös roskaposti). Mikäli et saa viestiä vuorokauden aikana (arkipäivinä), voit käydä kokeilemassa Irikseen kirjautumista.

Mikäli olet jo ottanut Iriksen käyttöön

ABB:n vakuutuskassa uses the Iris e-service

Iris makes it easy for you to claim reimbursement, and sending claims and attachments is safer than by using normal email (we do not recommend sending claims by email).

To access Iris, you must first request permission to sign up. You can submit your request as follows:

  • Go to https://abb.omasairauskassa.fi
  • Log in to Suomi.fi with your online banking credentials
  • Enter your details and tick the box “Annan sairauskassalle luvan perustaa minulle profiilin Iris-asiointipalveluun. Hyväksymällä tämän sairauskassa liittää sinut sähköiseen korvauksenhakupalveluun.” [I authorise the health insurance fund to set up a profile for me on the Iris e-service. When you accept this, the health insurance fund will sign you up to the electronic claim service.]

After the request, the fund will receive a request for approval and your account will be activated. Once your Iris account has been activated, you will receive an email about the activation (also check your spam folder). If you do not receive an email within 24 hours (on weekdays), you can try logging in to Iris.
