Disability in Ukraine Will Be Determined Under New Rules
Published
Ukraine is changing the rules for determining disability. Now a person can be granted disability on a permanent basis already during the first assessment, if their health condition meets the established criteria. This is reported by Ukr.net.
Previously, disability was assigned to many people for a set period, after which they had to undergo a review again. The new procedure is intended to simplify the process for those whose health condition will not change. A repeat assessment for such people is expected to no longer be necessary.
At the same time, it is important that the health condition meets all the criteria set out in legislation. The results of the assessment determine whether the disability will be permanent. If the criteria are not met, a person may be granted disability for a different period.
Detailed conditions and the procedure for submitting documents should be clarified with social protection authorities or on the official websites of government institutions. This way, a person will be able to find out how to prepare for the assessment and which documents are required.
