Criteria for establishing the 2nd group of disabilities

Disability is a legal status granted to persons who have certain limitations in life activities due to illness or injury. In Ukraine, the establishment of disability is regulated by a number of normative acts. The process of obtaining this status is complex and requires a detailed understanding of the law and the criteria used to determine the degree of disability. It is especially important to know the criteria for establishing the 2nd group of disability, which involves significant but not complete limitations in working capacity.

The main criteria for establishing the 2nd group of disabilities

The establishment of the 2nd group of disability is based on a comprehensive medical and social examination, which includes an assessment of medical, social and labor factors. The main criteria for obtaining the 2nd group are:

1. Medical indicators. They include the degree of impairment of body functions, which must be significant, but not complete. For example, cardiovascular diseases that do not allow you to exercise, but allow you to take care of yourself in everyday life.
2. Functional limitations. In order to establish the 2nd group, significant limitations in life activities are necessary, which make it difficult or impossible to perform certain types of work. This can be the inability to perform work that requires significant physical effort or work that is associated with health risks.
3. Social factors. Social living conditions, the possibility of self-care, as well as the need for constant or periodic third-party care are also taken into account.
4. Rehabilitation potential. The possibility and expediency of rehabilitation measures to improve health and restore working capacity are evaluated. If the rehabilitation has a limited potential or cannot fully restore working capacity, this is an additional argument for establishing the 2nd group.

The procedure for establishing disability

The procedure for determining disability begins with the submission of an application to the MSEK (medical and social expert commission). Next, the patient undergoes a comprehensive examination, which includes:

1. Medical examination: doctors of various specialties assess the patient's state of health, conduct the necessary laboratory and instrumental research.
2. Occupational examination: the patient's labor activity, his capabilities and limitations in work are evaluated.

The decision to establish the 2nd group of disability is made on the basis of a comprehensive assessment of all collected data and documents. The result of this process is the drawing up of an appropriate act, which confirms the status of disability and gives the right to social payments and benefits.

Problems and difficulties in the process of establishing disability

Unfortunately, the process of establishing disability is often accompanied by bureaucratic difficulties, as well as the need to collect a large number of documents and certificates. This may include repeated visits to medical institutions, long waits for examination results, as well as the possibility of conflict situations with medical personnel or representatives of the MSEK.

In addition, situations often arise when the decision of the MSEK does not meet the patient's expectations, and he has to appeal this decision in court. In such cases, it is very important to have professional legal support to protect your rights and interests.
