Art. 27 Bundesgesetz vom 6. Oktober 2000 über den Allgemeinen Teil des Sozialversicherungsrechts (ATSG) - Aufklärung und Beratung
ATSG; 4. Kapitel: Allgemeine Verfahrensbestimmungen
Art. 27 ATSG · Aufklärung und Beratung
Die Versicherungsträger und Durchführungsorgane der einzelnen Sozialversicherungen sind verpflichtet, im Rahmen ihres Zuständigkeitsbereiches die interessierten Personen über ihre Rechte und Pflichten aufzuklären.
Jede Person hat Anspruch auf grundsätzlich unentgeltliche Beratung über ihre Rechte und Pflichten. Dafür zuständig sind die Versicherungsträger, denen gegenüber die Rechte geltend zu machen oder die Pflichten zu erfüllen sind. Für Beratungen, die aufwendige Nachforschungen erfordern, kann der Bundesrat die Erhebung von Gebühren vorsehen und den Gebührentarif festlegen.
Stellt ein Versicherungsträger fest, dass eine versicherte Person oder ihre Angehörigen Leistungen anderer Sozialversicherungen beanspruchen können, so gibt er ihnen unverzüglich davon Kenntnis.
