Social indicators for the nine-month period
The State Health Insurance and Expertise Agency under the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of Population granted disability status to nearly 40,000 people in January–September this year.
Of them, initial disability status was granted to 16,300 people, while disability status was reassessed for 23,600 people.
Disability assessment is carried out through an electronic system based on the information contained in referrals entered into the e-system by medical institutions.
Following the granting of disability status, social payments related to disability are proactively assigned through the e-system.
