People with Disabilities of First and Second Groups Exempt from Annual Medical Examination
The need for the annual medical survey of people with disabilities of Group 1 and in some cases Groups 2 and 3 is eliminated. Yesterday the President of Azerbaijan signed a decree on improving the system of assessment of disabilities.
According to the document, its purpose is to increase transparency and expand the use of modern ICT in this area, as well as improving the quality of medical and social expertise and rehabilitation. In addition, the order provides for the establishment of an electronic information subsystem in the field.
Organizational matters are entrusted to the Cabinet. It is also instructed to amend the criteria for determining disability, taking into account the increase in the term of appointment of the second and third degrees of disability for a period of at least five years in reducing the number of repeated surveys.
On a number of issues the responsibility has been assigned to the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Communications and High Technologies. --17D-
