Population and university relationship
The institutional presentation primarily identifies UATF teaching staff, administrative employees, workers and their beneficiaries. It also includes personnel and beneficiaries of the institution itself and other affiliated employers. The university identity therefore describes a central relationship, but does not establish that every user is a student or that university membership automatically creates insurance entitlement.
Consultations and diagnostics
The portal’s service catalogue includes outpatient care, clinical laboratory testing, imaging, nursing and pharmacy. These services perform complementary roles in initial assessment, diagnostic support and treatment follow-up. Individual care is organised according to clinical indications and facility arrangements; a general service list is not an individual prescription or guarantee of immediate access.
Rehabilitation and inpatient care
Physiotherapy and medical and surgical inpatient care are among the published services. Rehabilitation links treatment with recovery of functional abilities, particularly relevant when an injury affects daily life or work. Healthcare provision and administrative incapacity assessment serve different purposes, even where both make use of the same medical documentation.
Appointments and certificates
The website offers online appointment access and tools concerning membership and certificates. An appointment organises access to a consultation, whereas an administrative statement establishes a position in institutional records. Keeping these purposes distinct helps readers interpret a non-membership certificate, authorisation for care or medical report correctly.
Occupational risks and prevention
SSU Potosí’s mission explicitly includes short-term occupational risks alongside sickness and maternity. Its healthcare role can form part of the response to work-related injuries or illness. UATF and other affiliated organisations retain their prevention duties as employers. A potential pension for permanent consequences belongs to the long-term scheme and requires the appropriate assessment rather than following automatically from healthcare use.
Frequently asked questions
Does SSU Potosí serve only UATF?
Its institutional presentation also identifies its own personnel and other affiliated employers. Individual entitlement depends on membership and the applicable conditions.
Does physiotherapy establish permanent incapacity?
No. It is a rehabilitation service. Recognition of permanent incapacity requires assessment and the procedure of the competent system.
