Question
I have a medical device that operates on batteries. When you present a receipt for the purchase of batteries to the health fund, you receive a refund. For several years, I didn't know this and paid for the batteries out of my own pocket. Can I use the batteries for other household needs on account of the years I didn't receive a refund for the batteries?
Answer
Hello
It is permissible to do as you suggested.
The refund is rightfully yours.
