The procedure for establishing and processing disability

Persons of any age subject to the establishment of a category of disability must provide a package of medical documents and a referral for examination from a medical institution from the leading doctor who carried out the treatment. You can also take a referral to the social protection authorities, and pensioners for disability registration - to the Pension Fund.

The collected documents to be reviewed must be submitted to the ITU Regional Office at the place of residence. Within a month, the commission considers the grounds for establishing disability, after which it announces the decision. In case of disagreement with the adopted verdict, a person has the right to apply to the ITU Main Bureau, which appoints a re-consideration of documents. The next stage of the appeal is the court.

A child under 18 years of age with significant disabilities must submit a children's outpatient card to the ITU bureau to establish the category of "disabled child". If the person applied at an older age, and the diagnosis was established before the age of majority, then the person falls under the category of "disabled childhood".

Recertification deadlines

According to Order No. 664n, the Russian Federation has adopted international criteria for assessing the degree of disability, which are calculated in points.

Disability is a condition of a person with the impossibility of carrying out mental, physical or mental activity. The procedure for establishing disability in the Russian Federation is carried out by the relevant authorities, and at the same time carries a medical and legal significance. Establishing a disability gives the right to receive a number of benefits and pension payments, while a person who has received a certain degree of disability cannot work partially or completely. IN modern society the concept of "disabled" is considered to be a more correct term "person with disabilities".

Disability status is determined by several groups:

- on diseases of motor functions;
- for circulatory diseases;
- for diseases of the digestive tract and respiratory systems;
- on violations of metabolic processes;
- on violations of the functions of the sense organs, in particular vision, hearing, smell and touch;
- Mental disorders.

At the same time, there is an opinion among Russians that there is a list of diseases, according to which one can receive a certain status of disability. However, not all diseases listed on this list qualify for disability. So, for example, a person with an oncological disease, after completing all courses of long-term rehabilitation therapy, can be sent for examination to obtain the status of a disabled person of a certain degree, and the commission will decide whether to extend the sick leave without establishing a disability group, or to determine the status of a disabled person. 2nd group for a period of one year, after which, after a re-examination, disability is removed or renewed. It is believed that the duration of an uninterrupted sick leave should not exceed 4 months, with interruptions - 6 months.

There is a list of persons who are entitled to receive disability on an indefinite basis, which include:

- Disabled males over 60 years old and female over 50 years old, as well as disabled people with the appointment of a repeated medical examination in terms after the specified age;
- disabled people of the 1st and 2nd groups, whose degree of disability has not changed or has changed for the worse over 15 years;
- invalids of the Second World War of the 1st and 2nd groups, as well as citizens defending their homeland with a disability received before the Second World War;
- Disabled military personnel who received the status of disability for injuries and diseases received during the period of service.

In addition, there is a list of diseases for disability on an indefinite basis, which include:

- malignant tumors of various shapes and localizations;
— benign tumors brain;
- mental illnesses that are not treatable;
– diseases nervous system that affect changes in motility and the work of sensitive organs;
- heavy forms nervous diseases;
- degenerative processes of the brain;
- severe diseases of internal organs with a progressive course;
- defects of the lower and upper extremities, in particular amputation;
- complete loss of vision and hearing.

The conditions for establishing disability are determined by the criteria and classification regulated by the Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation No. 1013n dated December 23, 2009 “On approval of classifications and criteria used in the implementation of medical and social examination of citizens by federal state institutions of medical and social examination”.

11. The category of "disabled child" is determined in the presence of disability of any category and any of the three degrees of severity (which are assessed in accordance with the age norm), causing the need for social protection.

The need for disability in autism is recognized at the state level. Appropriate changes have been made to the legislation and by-laws. However, for parents of autistic children, the question of the criteria for obtaining a disability remains open. Often people do not know where to start with disability registration for an autist, what disability group is given for autism, and whether their child is entitled to such a status.

Making disability for autism - what does the law say?

The law that regulates and defines issues related to disability is called “On the Social Protection of Disabled Persons in the Russian Federation”. A disabled person is a person (a disabled child under the age of 18) who has persistent physical, mental, and cognitive impairments.

To qualify for a disability, these impairments must be of such a degree that they make it impossible to:

self-service;
independent life in society;
self-control;
learning;
obtaining skills for work;
implementation of labor activity.

As applied to autism, a disability is not automatically attached to a diagnosis. The decision to assign a disability to an autistic child is made collectively, after a comprehensive examination and monitoring over time.

Note! Parents should understand that the classification of disability and autism as a diagnosis are two different things. Not every child with an autism spectrum disorder is entitled to and requires a disability.

Is it worth making out?

Obtaining the official status of a disabled person with autism makes it possible for the family to receive material assistance from the state in the form of cash payments and benefits.

Rehabilitation for autism is prescribed, or rather developed, on an individual basis. Not every autistic child needs constant care. Parents and professionals should focus not on disability registration, but on early diagnosis and adequate rehabilitation.

On the other hand, financial support, the opportunity to receive the necessary drugs for free, the possibility of taking courses in sanatorium treatment, monthly cash payments to a non-working parent caring for a child - all this gives the status of a disabled child.

Note! Registration of the status of a disabled child does not entail any restrictions in the choice of education or kindergarten. As the baby recovers, you can go through a commission and remove disability at any time.

How much money is paid when applying for a disability for autism?

According to the legislation, parents (guardians) of a disabled child are paid:

1st group - 10,376 rubles. federal pension + 5500 "for care" (or 1200 if care is provided by an outsider);
2nd group - 8 647 rubles. + care allowance.

Financial benefits include:

50% discount on utility bills;
free travel in public transport;
50% discount on seasonal travel for all types of transport;
free kindergarten, medicines, spa treatment.

For mom there are preferences in the labor code. This is summer vacation and the inability to dismiss her from work without her consent (does not apply to labor violations by a woman).

Note! We have not listed all payments and benefits that may be due for a disability with autism. A complete list should be clarified in the institutions of social protection at the place of residence.

Disability for children with autism in the Russian Federation is now given for 5 years

In March 2018, the Russian government adopted Decree No. 339. According to him, the primary diagnosis in violation of the autism spectrum in children makes it possible to establish a disability for 5 years, minimally or indefinitely, up to 18 years.

The extension of the minimum period for establishing disability in autism is associated with the difficulties of passing the annual commission to confirm the status. In addition, it allowed to streamline the procedure throughout the country.

Is it possible to get a disability with autism - the procedure for registration

There is a general, legally established procedure for obtaining a disability for a child, regardless of his diagnosis:

Contacting the clinic at the place of residence for diagnosis. If the disease is of a general nature - to the pediatrician. If this is a psycho-neurological sphere, then we turn to a neurologist, a child psychiatrist. In the absence of a specialized specialist at the place of residence, you should take a referral to the regional doctor.
The specialist must issue a referral for a medical and social examination (ITU). He also prescribes in detail a list of specialists, tests, instrumental studies that your child needs to undergo. Medico-social examination is carried out annually, at a certain time. All stages of the examination must be completed before it begins. Otherwise, everything will be postponed for a year.
After completing the examination according to the issued list, take all the results to the doctor from whom you received the referral. He must prepare the documents.
At the appointed time, with the received medical documents, go through the commission.

Note! With autism referral to a commission ITUissued by a psychologist.

What documents are required to register a child with a disability?

An application from a parent or guardian for an examination.

The share of re-examination is necessary to go through the entire procedure described above again. Plus, submit to the commission the conclusion of the previous examination (pink certificate).

Disability in autism after 18 years

There is a problem - when an autistic child reaches adulthood, they change the diagnosis of "autism" to "mental retardation", "personality disorder", "schizophrenia". Until 2015, this was attributed to the fact that there was simply no official code for determining autism in an adult.

To date, such codes exist. According to the International Classification of Diseases, established in 2010, these are:

code F84.0 - childhood autism
code F84.1 - atypical autism

However, not all psychiatrists are ready to work according to international standards. Whether your child with autism will be re-diagnosed with a disability after age 18 often depends on the persistence and awareness of the parents (unfortunately).

How to apply for a disability for autism in Ukraine?

Parents can initiate the process of getting a child diagnosed with autism (autism spectrum disorders, RDA,) on their own. To do this, they should find the nearest child psychiatrist and contact him for the establishment of the correct diagnosis (or confirmation of the existing one).

To obtain the status of a disabled child, the appropriate tests will be carried out. If appropriate, doctors can be involved in the examination: a neurologist, speech therapist, gastroenterologist, endocrinologist and other narrow specialists.

The established diagnosis must be recorded as specified in the order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine No. 454/471/516 dated November 8, 2001. It lists all the grounds for obtaining disability since childhood. About autism it is written in paragraph 10 of the section "Relax the psyche and behavior." The diagnosis must be "infantile autism" or "atypical autism".

To determine the indications for obtaining the status of a disabled person, age does not matter. With established autism, the child will be "disabled since childhood", even if you came to the commission at 16 years old. The law does not oblige you to stay in the hospital for examination. Everything is allowed to pass on an outpatient basis.

The conclusion can be in the form:

Forms 028 / o - for outpatient examinations.
Forms 027/o - for inpatient examination.

Additionally you need:

birth certificate of the child;
characteristics from a children's institution;
adult accompanying passport;
honey. map.

Final stage- undergoing VKK in your clinic.

Note! The conclusion of the medical examination reveals indications for the establishment of disability since childhood for a child with autism. However, the final verdict on the assignment or refusal of the status of a disabled person remains with the VKK at the place of residence.

VKK (Medical Advisory Commission)

In Ukraine, the Medico-Social Expertise (MSEK or VKK) takes place after the completion of the preliminary examination of the child. It is the conclusion of this commission (form 080 / o) that is the basis for the parents to receive an official document that gives them the right to apply for social assistance to the appropriate (at the place of residence) public service.

Note! In Ukraine, a confirmed diagnosis of "childhood autism" gives grounds for establishing disability up to 18 years, for the entire period of a child's childhood. Other violations may be re-examined after 2 or 5 years.

Plan (checklist) for registration of disability for a child with autism in Ukraine and Russia

Summarizing the above, we can conclude that the procedures for obtaining disability status for a child with autism in both countries are similar.

Contacting the clinic at the place of residence, to a specialist with whom the child is registered. As a rule, this is a neuropsychiatrist or a child psychiatrist. We declare our desire to formalize disability in case of autism in a child.
We get a direction for a medical examination - in a hospital or outpatient. The law in both countries does not prohibit any form of honey. examinations.
We are undergoing a medical examination. The duration of the process depends on the condition of the child, the work schedule of specialists and the quickness of the parents.
We get a conclusion with a diagnosis and a recommendation for the establishment of disability.
We collect documents for medical and social expertise (MSEC or VKK in Ukraine, ITU in Russia) and submit them to the medical. institution at the place of residence. With documents you can go without a child. You are assigned the exact date for the passage of the commission.
We pass VKK. We receive an official document stating that your child has a disability (pink certificate) and an IPR (individual rehabilitation program).
We go with documents: to the pension fund to issue a pension certificate; to the department of social protection for registration of the required benefits and benefits; to the social insurance fund for IPR registration. Do not forget to take all the contact numbers of these institutions when passing the VKK.

There is nothing difficult in applying for a disability for a child with autism. You should not be afraid of the hospital - you have the right to be there with your child, without your permission they will not give him a single pill.

Remember that the quality of life of your family depends only on your perseverance.

The birth of a disabled child in a family is always a test for his parents. A disabled person is a citizen who has permanent physical or mental disorders of body functions. Health problems may result from various diseases, injuries, defects. All this together leads to the complete or partial deprivation of a child with a disability of the opportunity to realize the key elements of life. Registration of a disability for a baby is a fundamental procedure for obtaining benefits and cash benefits from the state in the future.

What diseases give children a disability?

Disability in a child can manifest itself in different degrees. Many parents of such a baby are wondering what diseases can cause disability. Today, on the territory of the Russian Federation, there is Federal Law No. 181 "On Social Protection of Disabled Persons in the Russian Federation" , which regulates the state social protection of incompetent citizens and ensures their successful integration into everyday life. However, this general federal law cannot give clear explanations about the list of diseases in which parents should hope to receive a disability for their child.

This category is not assigned once and for all life, this status should be constantly confirmed and evidence collected in its favor. In the Russian Federation, a child can be incapacitated for a year, for two, for 16 years, or until the age of majority. This means that when the term comes to an end, the disability must be re-prolonged.

The list of diseases for obtaining disability in children includes such health disorders as:

mental disorder;
violation of the activity of the sense organs;
external physical pathologies;
pathological violation of language and speech functions;
disorder of motor skills of arms and legs;
violation of the functioning of internal organs and various body systems;
skin diseases and others.

The child receives the first group if:

complete or partial blindness;
more than 80% of hearing is damaged;
the baby has diseases that negatively affect the functioning of the central nervous system;
absence of upper and lower limbs, etc.

The first group is characterized by serious disturbances in the functioning of the body and requires the help of outsiders.

The second group is characterized by the performance of minor self-service activities without the participation of other people and is assigned when:

liver disease (cirrhosis);
vision problems;
paralysis of the upper and lower extremities;
fistula, etc.

The third group of disability is given to the child if there is:

minor violations of speech function;
minor mental disorders;
the presence of a pulmonary form of tuberculosis, etc.

III gr. is working, the violations are not so significant, although they require additional state social protection.

How to apply?

To apply for a disability group for a child, parents will need to be patient. The procedure is phased and usually takes at least three months in duration.

Parents who have noticed defects in the functioning of the baby's body should follow the following algorithm of actions:

Contact your family doctor at the local clinic

An examination of a minor citizen is carried out and the voiced complaints are recorded in the patient's outpatient card. The family doctor issues a referral for testing (KLA and OAM) and a subsequent examination by specialized doctors. After preparing all the necessary documents and receiving reference certificates for IPR, the attending physician writes out a referral to the ITU using a special form No. 080 / y-06. On this document the seal of the medical institution is affixed and its content is confirmed by the signatures of three doctors.

Contacting the ITU Bureau

Pre-registration is made by phone or during a personal visit to the office to set a date. If the child cannot come to the examination on their own, then the examination takes place at home. The Commission on Disability is required to provide the entire package of collected documents. In the accounting department of the bureau, payment for services is not made - for the disabled, all activities are provided free of charge.

Implementation of a medical examination

After making an appointment, a specific date will be set for visiting the office. Approximate waiting period is one month. The examination is carried out by a commission consisting of three specialists. The child is examined, parents and the patient himself can be asked questions regarding the integration of the baby in social life. Members of the committee of specialists keep a protocol where observations, answers of the baby and parents are recorded. The decision is made by voting. If the vote was in favor of the child, then the issuance of a certificate of assignment of the category of disability and IPR follows.

Visit to the Pension Fund and the Department of Social Security

In the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, parents arrange for the child to receive a pension, and in Social Security they register for the purchase of funds for rehabilitation free of charge.

Parents will repeat the above algorithm of actions if necessary to extend the disability to the child.

With autism

Autism is a disorder of the brain and if a child suffers from this disease, then by law parents are allowed to issue a disability for the child. A similar category is acquired only after examination by a psychiatrist.

General procedure for parents:

examination by a psychiatrist. The doctor will create a special card and register the baby in a mental hospital. Many experts insist on hospitalization, but go to the children's psychiatric ward NOT NECESSARY;
obtaining a bypass sheet of VTEK. Without fail, the child should visit the following specialists - a neuropathologist, a surgeon, an otolaryngologist, a speech therapist, an ophthalmologist. Pass tests for KLA and OAM;
obtaining a decision of the PMPK. After passing all the specialists, you should return to the psychiatrist. The doctor will fill out a disability card and give a referral to the district psychiatrist, who, in turn, will also issue a conclusion;
enroll a child in ITU;
passing the commission;
receiving a pink piece of paper confirming the child's disability.

It should be remembered!A set of documents is submitted to the ITU Bureau at least six months after registration with the IPA.

When making an appointment with the ITU, you must have with you - an application for examination, an outpatient card of the child, an identity card of the parents, a photocopy and the original of the birth certificate, SNILS of all family members. If a minor attends a preschool institution, a reference from the educators will be required. Registration of disability for an autistic child takes about 6 months.

If the child has poor eyesight

Problems with the senses, namely with vision, also make it possible for parents to issue a disability to their child. Permanent incapacity, without a re-examination period, is issued for complete blindness with unsuccessful treatment. Also, when visual acuity decreases to 0.03 and the field of view is limited to 10 degrees.

First group visual impairment in children is characterized by:

zero percent vision (total blindness);
sharpness with correction is up to a maximum of 0.04;
field of view - up to a maximum of 10 degrees.

II group notes such changes in vision as:

sharpness - from 0.05 to 0.1;
field - from 10 to 20 degrees.

III group a child receives a disability if:

sharpness - from 0.1 to 0.3;
field - from 20 to 40 degrees.

The examination is first performed by an ophthalmologist in the clinic. He issues a referral to the ITU, where, after examination and voting, a pink piece of paper will be issued.

For asthma

child suffering bronchial asthma may get a disability. The baby is monitored by a pulmonologist. If the frequency of seizures is not high and they are removed by using an inhaler, then the ITU bureau may refuse to issue a disability.

It is possible to issue the I degree of disability to a child with bronchial asthma if:

the disease is not controlled by drugs;
intermittent breathing is observed even at rest;
complications are expressed in the work of the heart and internal organs;
inability to do without outside help.

II and III degree are characterized by lesser severity of symptoms.

To register a disability, an asthmatic child should undergo a medical examination at a polyclinic. In addition, tests should be taken - for the presence of sugar in the blood, OAM, culture and general sputum analysis, spirography, ECG of the heart and X-ray of the lungs.

The documents that should be provided when registering with the ITU Bureau are as follows:

parents' passports;
birth certificate of the child;
disability application;
outpatient card.

Diagnosis of a disease of mild and moderate severity in a child will not serve as a reason for the examination commission to assign disability. The most common treatment in childhood gives his positive results and the baby is cured. If the seizures are severe and you often have to seek emergency care for intervention, then this should be reflected in your application. As evidence, you can bring certificates taken from health workers about the calls made. If you have been diagnosed with asthma due to allergies, then you should be examined by an allergist to cancel it. Otherwise, the child's parents will be denied benefits and disability benefits.

For pre-registration at the ITU Bureau, the parents of the child should prepare the following set of documents:

a completed referral from the attending physician for the establishment of disability in the form No. 080 / y-06;
medical card from the clinic;

Disability can be given for a year, two, 16 years, or until the age of majority, depending on the dynamics of the disease and the effectiveness of the treatment used. In the legislation there is a special list of diseases in which a child will be given an indefinite disability. The list contains 23 diseases, among which- malignant and benign tumors without the ability to operate on them, complete blindness or deafness, dementia, progressive mental illness, absence or defects of the limbs (upper and lower).

What benefits are provided?

A child who has received a disability is entitled to some benefits and cash payments from the state. First of all, this concerns the provision of free medical care, medicines, technical means for integrating a disabled child into social life, and the baby is also at the head of the queue for a voucher for sanatorium treatment. Transportation is free of charge, pre-school and school education is also free.

Cash payments imply a receipt by a minor child of a disability pension. Its amount is - 11.903.53 rubles. UDV is also paid every month - 1.478.09 rubles and 2.527.06 if the NSO has been abandoned.

If a parent caring for a disabled child is unemployed, he/she is credited 5.500 rubles every month. If the parent is in a working position, then he is entitled to tax deduction by personal income tax. Its size is 12.000 rubles.
