Workers are eligible to claim the scheme worth thousands of euro each year which is run by the Department of Social Protection, if they reach the required number of PRSI contributions
The Minister for Social Protection Heather Humphreys has urged workers not to miss out on an annual boost.
Treatment Benefit is a scheme run by the Department of Social Protection to provide a limited financial contribution towards dental, optical and aural services. A payment of €42 towards either a scale and polish or - if clinically necessary - periodontal treatment, is also available once a calendar year. If the cost of either cleaning or periodontal treatment is more than €42, you must pay the balance - capped at €15 for a scale and polish. There is no cap on the balance charged for periodontal treatment.
