Disabled people of 3 groups: pension, co-payments, benefits

We will examine in detail in this article everything that is somehow connected with the pensions of disabled people of category 3: the procedure for calculating payments, their components, the right to surcharges, allowances and benefits, as well as the size thereof in 2017. Let's start with the laws governing disability and, accordingly, pensions for it in our country.

Under the law

Before determining the size of the pension for a disabled person of group 3, we list the main legislative acts that make it possible to rank a citizen in this category and make it eligible to receive the due payments:

• Order No. 95 of the Government of the Russian Federation: a clear statement of the conditions that must be met to obtain disability.
• Order No. 17 of the Ministry of Labor and Social Development: a description of the conditions that allow for the medical examination procedure necessary to obtain a disability category.
• Decree No. 317 of the Ministry of Health: the rules and terms of this medical examination.
• Decree No. 1 of the Ministry of Labor and Social Development: a list of medical clinics entitled to carry out a medical examination procedure for disability.
• Federal Law of the Russian Federation, granting the right to each disabled person to receive financial and social assistance from the state.
• Federal Law of the Russian Federation, listing all the benefits available to people with disabilities.

Who is a disabled person of category 3

A citizen who has certain health problems that entail various physical restrictions and the consequent loss of a job can count on the minimum pension for a disabled person of group 3. A person with a disability of the third group:

• Has the ability to serve himself alone, without the help of outsiders (subject to the use of special aids).
• It may well move independently, but the speed of his walk and the distance that he overcomes without rest is much lower and less than indicators for a relatively healthy person.
• During the learning process, needs additional rest, a special mode, the use of special equipment.
• In the process of laboring, there is a need to reduce the proportion of physical activity.

Varieties of pension for people with disabilities 3 categories

The size of the pension of a third-group disabled person is a value consisting of three components:

• social;
• insurance (labor);
• state pension.

In our country, indexation (an increase in the size of payments , depending on annual inflation) of pensions for people with disabilities is traditionally carried out at the beginning of the year. Its value is 1-6 percent. And now we will consider both the total amount of pensions this year, and each of the presented elements in more detail.

The size of the pension for a disabled person of group 3 in 2017

For convenience, we present the information on pensions in the form of a table.

For a disabled child of the 3rd group, the size of the pension in the current year (including EDV) was 14,609.12 rubles.

The latest indexation of social pensions took place in April 2017. As a result, payments increased by 1.5%, i.e. by approximately 129 rubles. One-time cash payments increased by 5.4%.

Social benefits features

In Russia, the size of the pension of a disabled person of the 3rd group belonging to the social category does not depend on his seniority. The Government of the Russian Federation establishes its single fixed size for all persons with disabilities of this category in the territory of the state.

The disadvantages of a social pension, as you can see for yourself from the previous paragraph, are its small size.

Insurance (labor) pension

Since a disabled person of the third group is not prohibited from working, his seniority and earned points in the Pension Fund significantly affect the amount of the labor part of pension payments. In addition to the base rate, the latter also depends on the category of disability.

A good amount of the insurance part is provided by at least 20 years of official work experience. All citizens can count on the minimum labor pension of a disabled person of 3 groups (2,402.56 rubles for 2017).

State pension

The calculation of this type of pension is dependent on the economic situation in the state and annual inflation. In the most general case, such a pension of a disabled person of group 3 is calculated according to the formula: the amount of social pension multiplied by 100%.

Features of pension accrual

The pension of a disabled person of category 3 is also dependent on which group a citizen belongs to:

• Disabled people with disabilities in this category generally do not receive any supplements. There are no particularities in calculating their pensions.
• The amount of the pension of a disabled person since childhood of group 3 is fixed and not subject to recalculations. Only annual reindexing can increase it.
• For disabled workers, the amount of the pension is annually recalculated automatically. Two factors influence it - the size of the official salary of the disabled person and the amount of contributions to the Pension Fund, redirected by his employer. With an increase in wages, pensioners have no right to reduce, but if the salary has decreased or remained at the level of the previous year, the size of pension payments may increase.

Premiums for disabled people 3 categories

Everyone with a category 3 disability is entitled to receive a monthly allowance of about 1000 rubles. Please note that it is available only to officially disabled people - at registration you need to show your work book. To receive this benefit, you must apply to the FIU with a corresponding application.

Since a disabled person of category 3 can look after himself, benefits for caring for him are not supposed. However, a person who takes care of such a citizen during the illness of the latter is entitled to receive payments for temporary loss of work. The allowance is calculated based on official earnings for the last six months.

All persons with disabilities, regardless of category, are eligible to receive the cash benefits listed below. The size of the pension of a disabled person of group 3 will increase if he meets all the conditions for their accrual:
