Many patients who undergo a procedure such as the medical and social commission on disability for the first time, ultimately remain unsatisfied with the decisions made, as well as the very principle of conducting all examinations. After all, they have to constantly deal with the additional processing of various documents, undergo a large number of examinations and perform a number of other actions. However, if you know how the medical and social commission on disability is conducted correctly, you can solve the overwhelming majority of problems.
Documents are the most important
First of all, you must check how correctly the various documents that you will provide in the process of conducting the examination are executed and drafted. The direction that you have passed the medical and social commission on disability is drawn up in a specialized medical institution located at the place of your treatment and observation. At the same time, this document must be certified by the appropriate seal of this institution, as well as by the signatures of three doctors, including the signature of the head doctor or the chairman of the commission.
Check everything carefully
Make sure in advance that the passport data specified in the documents provided by you is correct, because even if there is an error literally in one letter, the document can be considered invalid and you won’t achieve anything with it. Before the medical and social commission on disability will be held, photocopies of each extract you have received from the hospital should be made, after which they can be applied to the referral to ITU. The most optimal way is to attach them in chronological order, so that, if necessary, representatives of the relevant services can quickly and better check all the documentation. For examination, you must take the original of each extract from the hospital, as well as the originals of any other medical documents, so that the experts can verify them with the copies you provided. After the verification is completed, all originals will be returned to you immediately.
What affects the result?
The results of the observation of the patient, as well as the results of treatment in the outpatient setting, are quite significant in the commission, as a result of which you always need to have an outpatient card. In the event that there are emergency call coupons, also try to collect them and attach them to the outpatient card (ideally, you should also make a copy of each such certificate).
What else to bring with you?
If you have any pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, then in this case you should provide the commission with appropriate x-rays, and it should be noted right away that in order for the medical and social commission on disability to be successfully passed, take only fresh documents (made a maximum of a month before the date of submission). It is also worth noting that the direction for such an examination should include a description of these documents.
If you have accumulated a sufficiently large number of images, you should still take them with you all so that qualified specialists can make the most detailed picture of the dynamics of your disease. Again, it is best if all pictures are packed in chronological order. In the presence of any hypertensive diseases, as well as the presence of crises in accordance with the outpatient card, you can simply make a few neat colored bookmarks on the pages where these crises were recorded, but it should be noted right away that it is only necessary to collect such records the last year before the survey.
Inquiries from doctors
If you took sick leave, as a result of which you received the appropriate sheets from the doctor, then it is advisable to write on one separate sheet with what and how much you had the disease, what was your diagnosis and how many days it took to get rid of this ailment . Unfortunately, the medical commission on disability does not always make a reference to the fact that doctors in hospitals can fill out referrals to the ITU in a far from the best way.
If you have opinions from highly specialized specialists that you received at any other medical institutions, you can also provide such documents, but do not forget that each such conclusion must be approved by the seal of this institution. In addition, be sure to check the dates on which the conclusions were issued, as well as the passport data indicated in them, because otherwise the medical commission on disability may simply refuse to accept documents.
Additional documents
In some situations, it may be necessary to provide information about the education you received, while students must provide a certificate that they are studying at a particular educational institution. For everyone else, you will need to provide a copy along with the original diploma of education. In some situations, the disability commission also requires the provision of a work book or a copy of it, but in the latter case, you need to ensure that the copy is confirmed by the seal of your personnel department. It is also recommended that you make a photocopy of your passport and attach it with the rest of the documents.
If a person is currently working, then in this case a full-fledged production characteristic should be provided, which will indicate the working conditions, as well as how the sick person copes with the tasks assigned to him. This document must contain the date of compilation, as well as must be certified by the individual seal of the enterprise.
What should you be prepared for?
You should be mentally prepared for the fact that ultimately the disability commission for children or adults will not make the decision you would like. Do not rely too much on the opinions of some medical practitioners, who often allow themselves to simply share their opinions with clients regarding the fact that they are assigned a certain disability group. Few people know that in fact this is one of the most common causes of conflict situations that arise in the process of announcing a decision made by the medical disability commission.
Why do doctors have a common opinion?
Do not forget that the attending physicians do not have the appropriate expert training, as a result of which they are professionally prohibited from setting up their patient for the fact that the examination will ultimately make a certain decision. Such specialists do not bear any responsibility for the words spoken orally, while the expert doctors who conduct the commission on the appointment of disability draw up a specialized expert medical case for each patient, in which the decision in detail is justified in writing, referring to various legal acts. Ultimately, such a document is certified by the appropriate seals and signatures of the institution, after which these experts bear full legal responsibility for it. It is very important to understand this point in order to avoid useless trials and disputes.
Getting ready for the survey
Before the ITU commission for disability registration is held , you should prepare and take all the necessary things. In particular, bring a clean sheet with you, as it can come in handy when inspecting the couch in a prone position. If you wish, you can also take an interesting book that will allow you to brighten up the waiting time for a call. It is not recommended to bring a radio or a player with you, as in the process of their work you can just disturb others. Of course, you can use headphones, but in such a situation you risk simply not hearing how you will be invited. The Commission on the assignment of disability is a relatively lengthy procedure, but veterans and invalids of the Second World War, as well as the liquidators of the Chernobyl accident, are given the opportunity to make a priority call. Thus, if you belong to any of the above categories, always try to inform the commission about it.
Medicines should be with you
You should not hope that this is a matter of several minutes, and therefore you will not need to take any medications there. In fact, the duration of the examination can be several hours, depending on how busy the room is and how many people need a commission to determine disability. This is especially important for those people who suffer from coronary artery disease, hypertension or diabetes. Always be prepared for the fact that you may have a rather long wait for your turn.
What if there is no opportunity to come to the commission?
For the most severe patients who do not have the opportunity to independently arrive for an examination at the ITU institution, the possibility of an examination at home is provided. It should be noted that in extremely rare, it can be said, even exceptional cases, a decision on disability is also carried out in absentia, based on the documentation provided. In this case, you will need to additionally attach a statement to the referral you provide that, in connection with the state of health, the patient does not have the opportunity to come for an examination.
If we are talking about seriously ill or elderly people, they are advised to come only accompanied by their relatives, who, if necessary, will help them to undress and get dressed during the examination, as well as to supplement complaints or monitor on their own.
