In what cases can give indefinite disability. When is the III disabled group given? Types of violations of body functions

Today, the III disabled group is assigned to many patients, but this, of course, will require compliance with certain health requirements. Having received the status of a disabled person, a person simultaneously receives material assistance and a number of privileges from the state.
Under certain conditions and circumstances, a patient with a disability group III may be assigned permanent disability. The status "unlimited" is given so that the patient does not have to constantly undergo a re-examination procedure. This procedure is necessary to confirm the incapacitated state of health, increase the group and establish the degree of disability.

Among the disabled, the question often arises, can the indefinite 3rd group of disability be removed? Yes they can. To understand why this is possible, you should know that a disabled person, by carrying out rehabilitation measures, can improve his health over time. Such a fact will clear reason for permanent disability.

How is disability given?

Obtaining a disability is a rather complicated procedure that requires certain actions. The first step is going to the treating doctor. He will refer his patient to the surrender of all necessary analyzes. With the results of tests and examinations, the doctor will refer the patient to undergo medical and social expertise. The patient's information is entered into the database, considered, and only after that the commission decides whether to assign full or partial incapacitated status.
The degree of damage to the body by the disease has a strong influence on the definition of a disabled group. There are 4 degrees of manifestation of the disease:

• 1 degree - barely expressed;
• 2 degree - moderately expressed;
• 3 degree - pronounced;
• 4 degree - strongly manifested.

What functional health disorders can be the reason for assigning the third group of disability?

The list of physical disorders and deviations includes:

• Psychical deviations. These include memory impairment, unstable emotional background, intellectual impairment.

When is the III disabled group given?

A person can hope to receive group III only after a thorough examination. At the same time, doctors must confirm the presence of violations in the body, which reduce the patient's performance. Detected ailments can have both chronic as well as anatomical.
The ailments recorded by doctors are the result of a person’s poor-quality performance of professional duties, which leads to a decrease in his qualifications. Under such circumstances, the patient is forced to change the profession and working conditions (for example, to reduce physical activity), change the mode of work. Yes, because of bad health will need to be reduced working week to reduce working hours.

Design rules

The procedure for applying for a lifelong disability for group 3 does not have any special differences in comparison with the usual procedure. It is made up of the following:

• in the direction of the attending physician, the patient undergoes a medical examination;
• all necessary documents are prepared;
• documents are submitted for review ITU commissions, she also makes a decision on the assignment of disability.

Note! The medical examination will take a lot of time, as you will have to pass a lot of tests and go around the offices of many doctors.

All collected certificates and documents are submitted for consideration by the ITU representatives, and after 30 days the patient is informed of the final decision on the assignment of a disability and its group.

Attention! If the patient's condition does not allow him to come to the meeting of the commission on his own, then this factor should be indicated in the application.

The main actions of the representatives of the ITU Commission come down to several actions:

• the patient is examined visually;
• analyzes the treatment methodology for the entire period of the disease before the meeting of the ITU representatives;
• a decision is made whether the patient should be assigned a disabled category and whether rehabilitation treatment is required.

Attention! If the representatives of the commission come to the conclusion that the treatment does not give positive changes, then the disabled group is given with the addition "indefinite".

What can be the reason for the removal of indefiniteness from the III group of disability?

Based on the requirements of the Ministry of Health, indefiniteness from group III can be removed if there has been an improvement in the patient's condition. It should be noted here that even the status of a “lifelong disability” of a person will force him to be under the control of doctors all the time. Therefore, upon discovery the slightest sign improvement of well-being, the status of lifelong disability is removed from the patient.
Also, the following factors will be the reason for the removal of indefiniteness:

• found evidence that the documents are fake;
• revealed inaccuracies in the results of surveys and analyses;
• patients are out of time.

When can a person with a disability be granted a permanent disability?

If rehabilitation measures and treatment consistently fail, then a disabled person is assigned an indefinite status for 4 years. This condition applies to children with disabilities.
If a malignant tumor or leukemia is found in a disabled child, then the status of lifelong disability is given no later than 6 years from the date of recognition of incapacity.

Having received a lifelong disability of group II, one should not think that in this way the patient will subsequently be able to avoid contact with doctors. When appointing a disability, the commission obliges the patient to undergo rehabilitative therapy (2-3 times a year) and send its results to the ITU.
A patient who has received a document on the appointment of a life-long 2nd group is issued a certificate. On its basis, a disabled person will be able to travel in transport for free, receive benefits for paying utility bills, purchase vouchers to resorts, sanatoriums and other state support for free.

• If the employees of the Federal Bureau of Control, supervising the work of the ITU, found a violation of the terms in the assignment of a disability or the absence of good reasons for declaring a person incompetent.
• If fake documentation is found in the patient's file, there are corrections in the documents, false information is provided. In such cases, not only disability is removed, but it is also possible to open criminal proceedings under the article fraud.

Conclusion

Indefinite or lifelong disability is provided for certain groups of citizens who are included in the list of persons entitled to such a right, as well as for persons suffering from incurable diseases and pathologies. The procedure for assigning such a status is standard and involves a commission consideration of the issue.

Permanent disability in 2019: full list diseases

The official registration of the status of "disabled" is an equal process both medical and legal.

Although the recognition of disability is carried out by medical and social expertise, the legal and social background is not secondary here, because the status of disabled people is not just officially assigned the status of limited in working capacity.

They are entitled to certain benefits and allowances, the preservation of which requires periodic re-examination.

At the same time, state support measures are provided in full. How to get an indefinite disability, and what changes in the process of registration are expected in 2019?

General concepts and diseases

The degree of restriction of an individual in matters of life and work capacity is the main criterion for assigning a disabled group.

Disability is officially recognized by the medical and social expertise (ITU), controlled and regulated at the state level by a list certain rules and laws. In total, there are three groups for the adult population, and for minors - the position of "disabled child".

Disability restrictions of the first degree (first group) give the right to a disabled person to be considered as such for twenty-four months from the moment of recognition to re-examination, if the person has passed this procedure– the status is extended for another two years, etc.

Re-examination of disabled people of the second and third groups is required to be carried out annually.

However, representatives of each of the groups may have the right to indefinite disability. And this means that the status of a person is given for life.

In the course of recognition of a disability to a citizen, the following is determined as the reason for it:

1. a disease that caused a state of disability;
2. industrial injury;
3. limited physical and mental capabilities of a congenital type or acquired in childhood;
4. injuries acquired at the stage of military service (trauma, shell shock) or during the catastrophe at the nuclear power plant in Chernobyl and at the stage of eliminating its consequences, etc.

In the case when no documentation confirming the fact of an occupational disease, military injury and other circumstances, no, the status is assigned on the basis of a general disease.

The law provides for assistance to a person in obtaining required documents, and upon providing them to the members of the VTEK bureau, from the same date, the cause of disability without periodic examination is reviewed.

Obtaining an indefinite disability is provided both for a primary medical examination (for children with disabilities), and in cases of lack of progress in the course of treatment and rehabilitation.

Obtaining indefinite disability for different groups

Citizens with disabilities should know in which case an indefinite disability group in 2019 can be assigned to them, and when the ITU has the right to refuse it.

First group

Diseases (professional, acquired or congenital) or injuries that provoke pronounced restrictions on life activity serve as grounds for classifying a person in the first group of disability.

These people need social protection, medical support and daily continuous assistance.

The main indications for the assignment of the first group are:

• complete dependence on strangers in self-service or movement due to incapacity;
• disorientation;
• loss of control over one's own behavior, etc.

With the official status of “Group I”, this does not mean at all that permanent disability will be so easily assigned; in 2019, the list of diseases for this is not specific.

It is important that the conditions that are mandatory for other groups are met:

1. “disabled group members” have reached the age of 60 for men or 55 for women;
2. the disease that caused the assignment of a disability group is incurable and persists for at least the last 15 years;
3. if a person with disabilities is a military man and got a disease that led to disability in the service;
4. after the first confirmation of the group, at least 2 years have passed for adults, and 6 years for children.

Diseases have also been identified in which a person can count on disability without a re-examination period.

List of diseases

• absence of limbs surgical amputation or congenital)
• dementia and neuropsychiatric disorders( etc.);
• paralysis;
• complete loss of vision or hearing;
• absence of an internal organ (congenital, acquired), etc.

In the presence of one of the listed diseases and the assignment of the first group of disability, an indefinite category can be given only after an examination!

The main indications are:

1. self-care or mobility only with the assistance of other people or auxiliary tools and funds;
