Case: Disability was registered based on the diagnosis C43.5 Malignant melanoma of the trunk

Reading time: 2 min.

Service: Obtain a disability of group 3

“ Am I provided with a disability group according to my diagnosis? ” received a request for a consultation.

What were the stages of registration of a disability group 3?

Stage 1 – Analysis of documents and consultation

First of all, our company received documents from the patient for their analysis. In the process of studying medical examinations, ambiguity was revealed in the documents, in particular:

– “ there is no data on metastasis, the lymph node was removed after the previous removal of melanoma”.

Stage 2 – Clarification of information and treatment method

According to Resolution No. 1338, the basis for registration of a disability group is “Malignant melanoma of the skin with metastases”, however, the client has not had metastases since December 2024.

However, if there is preventive treatment, which is recommended to her, then there is a possibility of receiving a disability group III.

Stage 3 – Support during the collection of updated medical documents

Our medical lawyer recommended consulting other oncologists regarding the feasibility of treatment, since the data described are questionable. In accordance with the recommendations provided, the client underwent a medical examination and received doctors’ conclusions that confirmed the impact of the disease, which significantly limits her life activities.

Stage 4 – Submitted documents to the EKOPFO

We re-analyzed the existing package of documents, confirmed the correctness of the prepared materials, and agreed on the procedure for submitting documents.

A specialist was selected – a family doctor, who reviewed all medical information and properly prepared the package of documents for sending them to the medical institution. Subsequently, the administrator of the EKOPFO medical institution accepted the documents and provided an invitation for an assessment with a specified date and time of the examination.

Stage 5 – Consultation on preparation for the ECOPFO examination

All the details of the examination were discussed with the client, possible questions and answers to which it is worth preparing in advance.

Stage 6 – Accompanying the patient’s lawyer during the assessment

Resolution 1338 stipulates that during the in-person examination of the case for the assessment of the daily functioning of a person by an expert team, at the request of the person in respect of whom it is being carried out, the following may be present:

  • an authorized representative of the person (in particular, a lawyer, a legal representative).

Thus, the lawyer accompanied the client directly during the examination by the commission, which ensured compliance with his rights and procedural guarantees.

According to the results of the commission’s assessment, the client was assigned a disability group III, which confirms the correctness of the chosen legal strategy and comprehensive legal support.
