The Institute for the Elderly and Social Services (IMSERSO) is an agency of the Government of Spain responsible for the management of social services that complement the benefits of the Social Security System, disability and retirement pensions, in its non-contributory modalities, as well as the exercise of the powers of the General State Administration in matters relating the elderly and dependent persons. The IMSERSO is categorized as a "Management Entity of the Social Security". Despite the large scope of work covered by the Institute, it is mostly known for its programs related to tourism and social thermalism for elderly. The main tourist destinations organized by IMSERSO are located within Spain, Portugal and Andorra. As of March 2019, the Institute provided services to almost 1.1 million people. The Institute is headed by a Director-General appointed by the Minister for Social Rights and 2030 Agenda after hearing the Council of Ministers. The current director-general is Luis Alberto Barriga MartÃn. From Wikipedia
