To obtain this status, patients who have reached the age of majority, victims of an accident at work and an occupational disease, as well as persons with disabilities in the direction of a medical and preventive healthcare institution need to undergo a medical and social examination, writes "

To do this, you need to provide certain documents to MSEC:.

documents confirming a permanent impairment of body functions due to diseases, consequences of injuries or congenital malformations, which entail the restriction of normal life;

passport or ID-card with an extract from the Unified State Demographic Register regarding registration of residence;

military ID (copy) or temporary certificate (for those liable for military service, conscripts);

referral to MSEK (form No. 088/o);

medical documentation, originals (extracts from the outpatient card form 025 / o, extracts from the medical history of an inpatient form 027 / o, the results of laboratory, instrumental, radiological examinations, advisory conclusions of specialized regional specialists, etc.. ) and outpatient card;

other additional documents, if necessary, to confirm a particular reason for disability.

It should also be remembered that for the period of martial law on the territory of Ukraine, the procedure for conducting a medical and social examination has been simplified..

In particular, during the period of martial law, the medical and social expert commission performs its functions while ensuring the principle of extraterritoriality. That is, the examination is carried out at the direction of the medical advisory commission, regardless of the place of registration, residence or stay of citizens applying to establish a disability group.

Men with disabilities of groups I, II and III are not called up during mobilization and have the right to travel abroad during martial law. However, in some cases they may be denied permission to travel abroad..
