Having regard to Article 81(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community (1), under the terms of which it is responsible for dealing with any administrative question arising from Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 and subsequent Regulations,

Having regard to Article 22(1)(a)(i) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 relating to benefits in kind during a temporary stay in a Member State other than the competent State, as amended by Regulation (EC) No 631/2004 amending Regulations (EEC) No 1408/71 and (EEC) No 574/72 as regards the alignment of rights and the simplification of procedures (2),

Having regard to Decision No 183 of 27 June 2001 on the interpretation of Article 22(1)(a) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71, concerning health care in conjunction with pregnancy and childbirth (3) and Decision No 194 of 17 December 2003 concerning the uniform application of Article 22(1)(a)(i) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 in the Member State of stay,

Whereas:

(2)

The provisions of Article 22(1)(a)(i) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 were amended by Regulation (EC) No 631/2004 and henceforth stipulate that any insured person staying in a Member State other than the competent State is entitled to the benefits in kind required on medical grounds during the stay, taking account of the nature of the benefits and the expected duration of the stay.

Accordingly, Decision No 183 no longer serves any purpose and must be repealed,

1.

The amount of the benefits in kind provided in conjunction with pregnancy and childbirth and required during a temporary stay in another Member State must be borne by the insured person's competent institution in accordance with Article 22(1)(a)(i) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71.

2.

The present Decision, which replaces Decision No 183 of 27 June 2001, will be published in the Official Journal of the European Union. It will be applicable from 1 June 2004.
