Disabled people are the most socially vulnerable category of the population; the state pays them benefits, therefore the size of the disability pension for group 2, as well as for other groups, is important information for people who have lost their ability to work. In general, the amount of payment is determined by the type of social benefit, the presence and length of work experience, the number of pension points, regional coefficients and allowances.
You can calculate the amount of your pension yourself or by contacting a branch of the Pension Fund.
Disabled people of the second group are citizens with a level of disability of 79-80%. In other words, this category of people is considered disabled, but capable of caring for themselves (independently or with the help of technical devices) and not requiring constant care.
Such a citizen can work only after passing a special medical commission and only if certain conditions are met. It is difficult for a disabled person to apply for a job with good pay, so for people in need of social protection, the question of how the disability pension of group 2 is calculated is very important.
Disability pension amount
The size of the social disability pension of group 3 in 2021 was 4403.24 rubles/month, including for minors.
How much they pay for the third disability group under a labor pension is calculated using a special formula, taking into account the length of work experience.
The basic (minimum) size of the labor pension is also fixed:
- RUB 2667.10/month - lonely;
- RUR 4,445.16 rub./month - with 1 dependent;
- 6223.22 rubles/month. - with 2 dependents;
- RUB 8,001.28/month - with 3 dependents.
The total amount of disability pension for group 3 in 2021 takes into account not only the need for benefits, but also marital status.
Benefits for disabled people of group 3 for 2021 are set in the following amounts:
- EDV – 2162.67 rubles, of which the amount of NSS is 1121.41 rubles;
- DEMO – 1,000 rubles;
- additional payment for a dependent - calculated as 1/3 of the amount of the insurance pension;
- regional payment - the difference between the size of the regional subsistence minimum and the size of the insurance or social pension, along with other types of additional payments.
In 2021, according to the Government Resolution, the following amounts of pension accruals are established:
- Insurance (mandatory part): RUB 5,334.
- Social when registering disability in the general order: 5180 rubles.
- Social benefits for disabled people from childhood, group 2 (in 2021): 10,360 rubles.
This value is not final. Disability benefits are not only a pension, but also mandatory additional payments and benefits.
How much do they pay in addition to the pension for group 2 disability? EDV (for recipients of social benefits) – 2700 rubles. The benefit is divided into cash (RUB 1,580) and in kind (NSU).
Every month, within the framework of the EDV/NSU, a set of social services is provided for 1121 rubles. The recipient can replace this set of benefits with a cash equivalent by submitting a corresponding application to the Pension Fund.
If a disabled person of category 2 takes care of a disabled person of group 1, then monthly allowances are provided:
- Caring for a disabled person of group 1 (not necessarily a relative) – 1200 rubles.
- Caring for a disabled child or a person disabled since childhood (provided that it is provided by a parent, guardian or guardian) – 5,500 rubles.
In this case, compensation will be accrued not to the caregiver’s pension, but to the benefit of a group 1 disabled person.

Additional financial support for disabled people of group 2
EDV for disabled people of group 2 in 2021
Disabled people of group 2, regardless of their work experience, have the right to a special monthly payment in the amount of 2919.02 rubles
. This payment is assigned to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation upon the application of a citizen.
Social package for disabled people of group 2 in 2021
The social package is provided to all disabled people, regardless of length of service and group. And unlike the EDV, it is the same for everyone. Its cost in 2021, taking into account indexation, is 1211.66 rubles
. I would especially like to note the fact that this package includes a number of social support measures (necessary free medications, sanatorium treatment, travel to the place of treatment), which have their own monetary value. The citizen himself chooses in what form to choose benefits - in cash or in kind.
Additional payments for disabled people of category 2
Due to the presence of health limitations, people with disabilities are considered a socially disadvantaged group of citizens. Financial support is provided to such persons due to the fact that they are most often disabled.
The following types of support are paid:
- monthly transfers;
- package of social services;
- additional financial support;
- additional payment for dependents;
- regional and federal allowances.
In most cases, a disabled person needs to write a statement and ask for funds to be transferred.
The pension supplement is defined in the provisions of Federal Law No. 181 of 1995 “On Social Protection of Disabled Persons”. This act reflects that disabled people, regardless of category, have the right to receive additional payments in the form of EDV and NSU. This also includes disabled children and those who received the status of disabled in childhood.
As of 2021, the amount of the supplement is 2,678 rubles. This value includes a package of social services, provided that the citizen has refused to use it in full.
The amount is subject to annual increases during indexation.
The increase in pensions for disabled people of group 2 in 2021 is determined based on the expression in which the NSO is used.
Compound | Amount (in rubles) |
Providing vouchers for treatment in sanatoriums or resorts | 134 |
Issuing tickets for free travel on public transport or commuter trains. Also applies to intercity traffic when traveling to and from the place of treatment | 124 |
Provision of medicines | 863 |
The citizen has the opportunity to refuse to use the package. To do this, you need to write an application and send it to the Pension Fund. Full or partial refusal of the NSO is allowed.
The amount of additional payment in this case is proportionally reduced/increased depending on what the disabled person has chosen.
The legislative framework
The issues of incapacitated citizens are clearly defined by current legislation. Lifelong disability is characterized as the assignment of any of the groups of incapacity established by a special medical and social commission, issued in the presence of a serious injury or illness.
At the federal level, permanent disability is determined by the following regulatory documents:
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 95 - contains the conditions under which permanent incapacity is issued, which does not require confirmation.
- Federal Law No. 805 “On Amendments to the Rules for Recognizing a Person as Disabled” - defines the grounds on which a group of incapacity is assigned, as well as the period for which disability is determined.
- Federal Law No. 181-FZ “On Social Protection of Disabled Persons” - defines categories of citizens who can receive the status of incapacitated.
- Order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation No. 664n dated September 29, 2014 “On classifications and criteria used in the implementation of medical and social examination of citizens by federal state institutions of medical and social examination” - contains data on the categories of citizens who can register permanent disability.
- Federal Law No. 442-FZ “On the Basics of Social Services for Citizens in the Russian Federation” – records information on the provision of the opportunity to receive social services for incapacitated citizens.
- Federal Law No. 178-FZ “On State Social Assistance” defines benefits from various areas of life that can be obtained by persons with disabilities.
Lifelong disability is characterized as the assignment of any of the groups of incapacity
Dependent's supplement
Now let's take a closer look at which group of disabled people, who care for one or more people, are entitled to additional payments to their pension. The numbers increase several times and amount to very significant amounts.
- For 1 group. The state undertakes to pay 14,224.50 rubles. every month for disabled people of this group who have 2 dependent people. If there are 3 unemployed people in care, then the amount increases to 16,002.56 rubles.
- For group 2. If a disabled person has 1 person to support, then additional payments amount to 7,112.25 rubles. If the number of unemployed people in a family reaches 2, then the assistance will be 8,890.31 rubles. More than two dependent people - the amount will be 10,668.37 rubles.
- For group 3. As already mentioned, group 3 is provided with the smallest additional payments to pensions, regardless of the number of unemployed people. Having 1 dependent gives a disabled person the right to benefits in the amount of 4,445.16 rubles. For 2 dependents it will be 6,223.22 rubles. And if there are 3 people it will be 8,001.28 rubles.
When talking about what kind of additional payment to a pension if a pensioner has been given a Group 2 disability, you need to take into account that there may be several reasons for providing additional funds. For example, these are transfers to citizens who support minor children.
The amount of the supplement depends on how many disabled persons the disabled person provides.
The payment amount is as follows:
- if 1 dependent – 1/3 of the social pension;
- if there are 2 persons supported – 2/3;
- 3 or more disabled people – 100%.
As of 2021, social benefits for this category of citizens amount to 5,334 rubles. Not only the parent, but also another legal representative of the minor has the right to receive additional payment.
In addition, persons supporting disabled relatives, including parents or spouses, can apply for this type of allowance. The existence of grounds for receiving additional payments is confirmed upon reaching the age of 55-60 years, depending on gender or disability status.
We invite you to read: Full Individual Responsibility Agreement 2020
Disabled recipients of insurance (labor, length of service) pensions are entitled to apply for additional payments for dependents. At the same time, the size of their pension payments in 2021 will increase as follows:
- 3 or more dependents – 10,668 rubles;
- 2 dependents – 8890 rubles;
- 1 dependent – 7112 rub.
Dependents – disabled parents, children, spouse. They are disabled people, children, citizens of retirement age.
Drawing conclusions
Since the state assigns different levels of benefits depending on length of service, age, assigned group, a direct answer about which option is more profitable to choose. The labor pension is often higher than the disability payment. At the same time, the minimum length of service does not provide grounds for assigning a decent pension to a former employee.
The amounts of payments to pensioners for health reasons also differ. If we compare the general indicators, then in the presence of the 1st group it is more often recommended to choose a pension for health reasons. For citizens with group 3, social and labor pension contributions will be higher. Persons with group 2 will not feel much difference in payments. When compared with the basic part, the disability benefit turns out to be equivalent, but for the insurance part it is preferable to choose an old-age pension.
And yet, each case of determining the option of pension contributions is individual, since it takes into account not only the state of health, but also how the labor part will be calculated. Before submitting an application to change the pension accrual option, first undergo a mandatory consultation with employees of local Pension Fund branches, or consult the fund’s hotline
Additional payment for a military disabled person of group 2
In some situations, persons with disabilities may receive additional financial support. This occurs if the disabled status is acquired as a result of a military injury.
The right to DEMO is granted to:
- disabled people of the Second World War;
- persons who served in Afghanistan;
- other categories of military personnel who became disabled during hostilities.
Recipients | Amount (in rubles) |
WWII participants, including disabled people. Citizens who were prisoners of concentration camps as minors | 1000 |
Residents of besieged Leningrad, adult prisoners of concentration camps | 500 |
Receiving this allowance does not deprive a citizen of the opportunity to use the EDV and NSO.
Increase in social pension in 2021 for disabled people
If a person with a disability has never worked and does not have insurance coverage, he is assigned a social pension. Social pensions for disabled people of groups 1, 2, 3 and disabled children will be increased in 2021 from April 1. According to the law, the coefficient of annual indexation of social pensions is determined depending on how the pensioner’s cost of living has increased over the previous year.
The law on the PFR budget for 2021 provided for a preliminary indexation percentage of 7%, since the exact data on changes in the PMF for 2021 were unknown at that time. It was precisely taking into account the increase in the social pension by 7% that the money was included in the fund’s budget for 2021. However, the final calculations showed that the PMP increased by only 6.1% - and it is by this percentage that the social pension will be increased from April 1.
It should be noted that the social pension is assigned in a fixed amount depending on the disability group established for the citizen. As a result of an increase of 6.1%, the size of the social pension for disabled people will be as follows (these amounts will be paid from April 1, 2020):
- RUB 13,454.64 – disabled children and disabled people of group 1 since childhood;
- RUB 11,212.36 – disabled people of group 1 and group 2 since childhood;
- 5606.17 rub. – for disability group 2;
- RUB 4,765.27 – for group 3.
If a pensioner is not working, and the amount of the pension, monthly social assistance and other social assistance assigned to him in monetary terms is below the subsistence level of a pensioner in the region, he is assigned an additional payment up to the regional PMP.
- PMP values in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation are revised annually from January 1. New minimum pension values have also been approved for 2021 (the full table by region is presented in the article).
- Therefore, citizens receiving the “minimum wage” will feel an increase not only in April due to indexation, but also in January due to a revision of the amount of additional payment to the subsistence level.
Let us remind you that starting from 2021, pension indexation is assigned in excess of the PMP amount. Before this, citizens receiving additional payments to the minimum did not feel an increase from indexation, since the amount of the social supplement to primary care decreased by the amount of this increase.
Disabled children and adults who have not accumulated sufficient work experience (or have not worked at all) can apply for social benefits. It is paid to them throughout their disability. If the status is temporary, then upon its removal the benefit is canceled.
Since the amount of disability social pension for group 2 is small, its recipients can qualify for EDV - a monthly cash payment.
In addition to these benefits from the federal budget, disabled people receive additional payments from the regional budget. If the amount of their pension, together with the daily allowance (for disabled people of group 2), does not reach the subsistence level for pensioners in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation where they are registered, these citizens apply for an increase, which should equalize their income with the regional PMP.
Calculation example
Disabled group 2, unemployed, refused NSU:
- Since a citizen has no work experience, he can only apply for social benefits. The size of the social pension in 2019: 5180 rubles.
- If the TSA is refused, the recipient is assigned the full amount of EDV: 2,700 rubles.
The total amount of payments by addition will be 7880 rubles. If this value is less than the PMP for the subject of the Russian Federation where the citizen is registered, he is entitled to apply for a regional additional payment so that his provision is equal to the subsistence level for pension recipients.
Indexation of insurance pensions for disabled people in 2021
The increase in the insurance pension for disabled people in 2021 was 6.6% - this change occurred on January 1. The increase was made by indexation by the same percentage for all pensioners, so the increase will be greater, the higher the pension paid before such an increase (that is, in 2021).
For example, if a pensioner received a payment in the amount of 15,000 rubles in 2021, then from January 1 the pension provision will already be 15,000 × 1.066 = 15,990 rubles. Accordingly, the increase in January will be 990 rubles.
If a pensioner receives any supplements to the insurance pension, their amount also increases by 6.6% from January 1, 2021. This applies to the following types of pension supplements:
- For 30 years of experience in agriculture: 1421.56 rubles. disabled people of groups 1 and 2 and 710.78 for group 3.
- For a dependent (disabled family member, for example, a minor child or a student under 23 years old) - 1895.42 rubles. for each, but no more than three.
- For 15 years of work experience in the Far North - 2843.13 rubles.
- For 20 years of experience in areas equated to the Far North - 1895.42 rubles.
It should be noted that only pensions of non-working pensioners are subject to indexation. The increase in additional payments also applies only to unemployed citizens.
If a disabled person works, the pension and the bonuses assigned to it will not be indexed. The right to annual indexation will arise only after the dismissal of the pensioner. In addition, the Pension Fund will recalculate the pension and index it in accordance with all indices missed over the years of work.
We suggest you read: Libel civil code
PC/(T*K)B.
The decoding of the elements is as follows:
- PC – capital accumulated in the Pension Fund system as of the date of appointment.
- T – the number of expected months during which insurance payments will be paid (in 2019 – 270).
- K – proportion “accumulated experience / 180 months”.
- B – basic share of insurance payment for disabled people.
By substituting individual indicators, you can calculate what benefit a disabled person of group 2 will have upon reaching retirement age (in 2019: 60 years for women, 65 for men).
Calculation example
A group 2 disabled person had worked for 95 full months at the time of registration of the insurance pension. At the Pension Fund he managed to accumulate capital of 100,000 rubles.
This implies:
- PC = 100,000.
- T = 270 (for 2021).
- K = 95 / 180 = 0.52.
- B = 5334 (for 2021).
100 000 / (270 * 0,52) 5334 = 100 000 / 140,4 5334 = 712 5334 = 6 046.
The minimum pension (without regional supplement, benefits for dependents) will be 6,046 rubles.
Federal supplements for disabled people of group 2
It is also possible to establish a federal surcharge. This type of allowance is used when the region has a lower cost of living than in Russia.
In 2021, this amount is equal to 8846 rubles. For example, if a subject uses a monthly pension equal to 8,000 rubles, and a person receives a pension in the amount of 7,000 rubles, he is entitled to an additional payment of 1,846 rubles.
The pensioner received disability group 2; how much the pension supplement will be at the regional level depends on the amount of the benefit. In a situation where the amount is less than the minimum subsistence level in force in the person’s territory of residence, he is entitled to an increase up to this figure.
This rule applies only if the size of the subsistence minimum established in the subject is larger than in the country as a whole. The federal minimum in 2021 is 8846 rubles.
When determining the right to a supplement, it is necessary to take into account all the citizen’s income.
Even if a person uses preferences in kind, their value is considered when determining the amount of total income. In 2020, NSU is equal to 1121 rubles.
After how many years is a permanent disability group granted?
The full right to assign a lifetime group of incapacity is determined if it was established within the time frames given in the table below.
No later than two years from the date of the first diagnosis of incapacity | This rule applies to both children under eighteen and adults. But to obtain the status of “child with a disability,” it is necessary to obtain permanent disability before reaching adulthood. |
No later than four years from the date of the first diagnosis of incapacity | Applies to persons under 18 years of age and adults. It is assigned only if no improvements are noted during the period of rehabilitation and treatment, and there is no reduction in the citizen’s restrictions. |
Before the expiration of a six-year period from the date of establishment of disability, which relates to incapacitated children | Valid exclusively for children under the age of eighteen, and only when a malignant tumor formation, acute or chronic leukemia and other pathologies that are difficult to treat due to oncological processes are established. |
Privileges
To qualify for a pension, a citizen must confirm his disability group. A sufficient basis is the results of the MSA (special medical and social examination). The appointment for this procedure is made by the attending physician.
If MSEC experts recognize a citizen as disabled, then the second stage of registration is an application to the Pension Fund of Russia office for registration to assign the required pension.
Documentation
To assign a category 2 disability pension, you must provide the following:
- Statement corresponding to the request.
- Passport.
- SNILS.
- ITU conclusion on recognizing a citizen as disabled.
This is the minimum standard set of documentation.
Recipients of social benefits are provided with a special set of services - NSO. The monthly package includes:
- For 860 rub. – compensation for medications purchased according to a doctor’s prescription.
- For 130 rubles. – compensation for a sanatorium stay.
- For 120 rubles. – travel by public transport.
Disabled people who have replaced the NSS with a cash equivalent are not entitled to these benefits.
The disadvantage of preferences is that they are of a declarative nature and are not provided automatically. If a citizen needs to replace the NSU with a cash equivalent or, conversely, receive a monthly social package, he applies to the Social Insurance Fund or Pension Fund.
As a standard, you are required to write an application according to the established template. Entitlement to benefits is certified by a civil passport, ID card of a disabled person, SNILS. In some cases, it is necessary to provide additional documents: for example, when applying for benefits for dependents - confirmation of family ties (birth certificate, marriage certificate), certificate of family income.
Therefore, before applying for benefits, consultation is required at the social security department or Pension Fund at the place of registration. Employees of institutions are obliged to tell about all the benefits entitled to a particular citizen.

- For utilities and housing services.

Registration of additional payment for a disabled person of group 2
Regardless of what type of allowance is established for a disabled person, he will need to provide documentation confirming the presence of disability.
When registering EDV and NSO, you must send certificates of loss of ability to work to the authorized bodies. Such documents are issued after passing the ITU. For this group of citizens, the frequency of re-examination is established every 2 years.
The documentation is transferred to the Pension Fund of Russia, where employees check it and subsequently an additional payment is assigned.
To receive additional financial support, a citizen must submit to the authorized body a document indicating the status of a combat disabled person.
We suggest you familiarize yourself with: How much is the tax payment on winnings in
If the recipient is someone who has been disabled since the Second World War, then Pension Fund employees require a certificate issued by archival institutions about the injury received during the war. In other situations, you need a certificate issued by the military registration and enlistment office.
In addition, you must additionally provide a certificate indicating the presence of a disability.
To receive this additional payment, you will need to collect a package of documentation.
It includes:
- birth certificate;
- document confirming marriage;
- acts for adult relatives supported by a disabled person.
In addition, a certificate indicating the citizen’s low income level will be required. Documentation may be submitted in person or with the assistance of a representative. In this case, a power of attorney is required.
Thus, what additional payment to the old-age pension if you have group 2 disabled status depends on the grounds for providing additional funds. Persons unable to work have the right to receive allowances for dependents, DEMO, NSU, EDV.
To assign a benefit, a citizen must contact the local Pension Fund and prepare a package of documents. The fund takes about 10 days to make a decision.

When a person loses the ability to work and is unable to partially or fully care for himself, he is assigned a disability of one group or another. The determination of disability occurs at a special medical labor commission of the ITU or VTEK in the old way. In total, there are three disability groups in Russia.
The first and second groups include people with severe health problems who, as a result, have lost completely or partially the ability to move, self-care and work. The third group of people includes people who have diseases that do not allow them to perform one or another type of work activity.
For what diseases is a disability group assigned?
Depending on the nature of the disease, a person may be assigned one or another disability group - the most difficult stage of the disease belongs to the first group, and the least depressing work function - the third.
For what diseases is 1st disability group assigned?
For what diseases is disability group 2 prescribed?

Who is considered disabled group 2 in 2021?
A disabled person of the second group in 2021 can be considered a person who has all severe or moderately severe health impairments, but at the same time such a citizen is able to care for himself and does not require the constant presence of a nurse or third parties caring for him. Disability can be assigned indefinitely if the disease cannot be treated. In all other cases, a person must undergo an ITU commission after a certain period of time.
The Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation has determined the criteria defining a disabled person of the second group:
- partial restriction of self-service;
- need for help from other people;
- partial restriction of movement;
- partial loss of the ability to communicate with other people;
- loss of objective perception of the environment;
- possible loss of self-control;
- the need for special training programs;
- the need to create special conditions for working.
The Russian Ministry of Health and Social Development has determined a list of diseases that allow a person to receive a second disability group. Persons suffering from:
- chronic pulmonary failure;
- tuberculosis;
- liver cirrhosis;
- heart disease;
- damage to the spinal cord, resulting in irreversible changes in the functioning of the musculoskeletal system;
- paralysis;
- irreversible loss of vision in both eyes resulting from treatment;
- skull defects;
- loss of lower limbs, which does not allow installation of a prosthesis;
- destruction of the hip joint;
- the presence of a urinary fistula;
- anal anomalies that cannot be treated;
- arthrosis of the hip joint 1 or 2 degrees;
- the presence of a short limb that interferes with active movement;
- combination of amputation of any limb with loss of hearing or vision;
- organ transplantation with positive dynamics over 5 years;
- removal of two joints with subsequent replacement with prostheses;
- mental disorders lasting at least 10 years;
- epilepsy;
- dementia;
- neoplasms that cannot be removed through surgery;
- infectious diseases that cause complications in the central nervous system;
- brain lesions resulting in restrictions on motor activity.
The VTEK examination should be carried out at the place of registration of the person who needs to receive a disability. If a citizen cannot move independently, the procedure will be carried out at his home. A positive medical and social examination report will allow you to officially receive a monthly benefit from the state.
Basic terms
The concept of “disabled person” characterizes a person who has impaired health due to injury or a serious illness, in which he is unable to lead a full daily life.
In addition, if there is incapacity, a citizen cannot work partially or fully.
Before applying for permanent disability, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the disability groups that can be assigned by the medical and social commission.
All of them are described in the table below.
Group | Characteristic |
1 | Citizens who are assigned this disability group cannot independently provide for their daily needs. They need constant care. This includes persons who are unable to move independently, people with mental and mental disorders and other categories of citizens who are completely dependent on third parties. |
2 | A person with such a disability group can partially take care of himself, move with the help of auxiliary devices, undergo training in specialized institutions, and control his actions with the help of third parties. |
3 | Citizens who can fully serve themselves. Also, persons with this type of disability can work, but they are hired less often, since they can only work part-time or not work at full capacity. |
FAQ
Can insurance pension recipients claim EDV? No, this is an additional payment only to the social pension.
How to increase a low disability pension? Complete all required additional payments: daily allowance / dependent allowance, care for a disabled person of group 1.
What to do if a disabled person’s pension is less than the subsistence minimum? If the total benefit is below the PMP for the subject of residence for the current year (the value is indexed annually), then you need to apply for an additional payment from the regional budget.
Common Mistakes
When applying for a disability pension, mistakes are often made due to ignorance of all one’s rights:
- Disabled people are not aware that they can refuse NSS and receive its cash equivalent.
- Every year, a disabled person of the second group (who has not refused the NSU) can obtain discounted vouchers to a sanatorium.
- Every 5 years, a disabled person of category 2 (recipients of NSU) has the right to free dentures.
- Additional payment is due not only for dependents, but also for a disabled family member of group 1, even if he is not a close relative. Minimum 1200 rub. monthly.
Citizens who do not know about all their opportunities do not receive the money and services they are entitled to, since these preferences are application-based (you need to submit an application to the Pension Fund).

The current legislation establishes that a previously established group of incapacity can be cancelled. In most cases, this happens if there is progress in the treatment of the disabled person.
When assigning a disability group to a citizen, a period is established after which he must appear for a second examination, which will show the dynamics of the course of the disease.
After a second medical and social commission, it is determined whether to assign permanent disability (most often in the first group of incapacity) or temporary disability (which must be periodically confirmed).
In addition, withdrawal can be issued in the following situations:
- There are not enough reasons for registration (the patient’s health is improving, etc.);
- The candidate carried out fraudulent actions during the examination of the diagnosis.
Each of the groups of incapacity differs in its conditions of assignment and reasons for removal, which are discussed in the subsections below.
Third group
Deprivation of permanent disability of the third group can be realized in the presence of certain factors. The Ministry of Health is constantly making amendments to expand the reasons for which lifelong incapacity is lifted.
The medical and social commission, if even the smallest improvements are detected, will entail deprivation of the disability group.
In addition, cancellation will be processed under the influence of the following factors:
- Falsified documentation is discovered;
- Inaccuracies in previously conducted analyzes and surveys are identified;
- The patient violated the deadline for appearing for a medical examination.
The medical bureau strictly monitors performance and compliance with all standards when assigning incapacity.
Second group
The factors on the basis of which permanent disability of the second group is removed are similar to the third group. Also, incapacity is removed if forged documentation is discovered or the deadlines for a medical examination are not met.
It is important to understand that when determining the unreliability of documents, criminal penalties will be applied to the applicant.
First group
Permanent disability can be canceled even if the first group of incapacity is assigned. The main category of citizens who belong to this group are those with congenital pathologies and health conditions that cannot be treated.
In most cases, disabled people of the first group are limited in self-care, or are completely bedridden and require a permanent caregiver. The reasons why an installed group can be canceled are similar to those listed above.
However, the inspection process will be more stringent, since this category of citizens has the most serious condition.
