<span class="h2">7.8 Battery VI. Income and medical care</span>
<br />The purpose of this battery of questions is to identify the payment modalities, as well as the frequency and amount of the income employed persons obtain from their main job. It also allows you to confirm the condition of unpaid employed persons (family members or other persons). And, additionally, it distinguishes employed persons who have medical care services as a benefit of their main job, from those who do not have it.</p>
<p><span class="em">Question 6d</span>
<br />This question is asked to employed persons to find out if they receive medical care as a welfare benefit from the economic unit for which they work and which institution provides them this service.</p>
<p>[Omitted figure]</p>
<p>Conceptual clarifications:
<br />Consider a person to have access to medical care derived from their main job, regardless of whether or not they use the service.</p>
<p>Include employers and self-employed workers, exclusively of the agriculture/livestock sector who have access to medical care through social security when voluntary or optional insurance is obtained on their own initiative. These workers are considered due to their special enrollment conditions with the IMSS. Exclude:</p>
<div class="i1">- Self-employed workers in any economic sector (commerce, manufacturing, services), except agriculture/livestock, who state they have voluntary insurance, also called optional.<br />For the purposes of the survey, these are not considered an employment benefit.<br />- Subordinate workers who state they have purchased their access to public insurance, as this is not an employment benefit.<br />- Dependents by economic dependency, that is, people who have the benefit thanks to a family member.<br />[Omitted figure]</div><p>Instructions:
<br />1. Social Security (IMSS)</p>
<div class="i1">- Those who work for private sector economic units or in some public sector institutions, who receive medical care through this institution. In the case of government workers, ratify the information with a note in the comments section.<br /><br />Exclude those who state they have medical service derived from public insurance financed by their economic unit, of which they are subordinates, as these are classified in option 5.</div><p>2. The naval, military or Pemex hospital or clinic</p>
<div class="i1">-Workers in the Army, Marines or Air Force who receive medical care in clinics or hospitals of PEMEX, the Mexican Army or Navy, respectively.</div><p>3. The ISSSTE</p>
<div class="i1">- Workers who receive medical care in this government institution. In this case, verify that the person works in a public institution.</div><p>4. The state ISSSTE, (ISSSTELEÓN, ISSEMYM)</p>
<div class="i1">- People who receive medical care from any institution similar to the ISSSTE, but exclusively for workers in the service of a particular state, such as the ISST (Social Security Institute of the State of Tabasco), Social Security Institute of the State of Mexico and Municipalities (ISSEMYM), etc.</div><p>5. Other medical institution
<br />People who receive services in hospitals, clinics or medical offices not included in the preceding options. When you check this option, specify the medical institution.</p>

<div class="i1">- Those who receive this service in the medical office located inside their own company, but only if full services are provided to the worker: examination, prescriptions, treatment and medical justification or leave.<br />- Subordinate workers or employers who have public insurance, as long as the economic unit for which they work is the party financing the enrollment in said program.<br /><br />In the case of employers, note that it is considered an employment benefit, taking into consideration that they may be added to the payroll of their own company and assigned other employment benefits; exclude from this option self-employed workers who claim to have this "benefit", as they are classified in option 1 of question 10b.</div><p>6.
