Law on social services for citizens of the Russian Federation. Let's understand the new law on social services

Regions may expand this list. For example, in the Moscow region there are 15 categories of citizens get free help in social centers for all eight services:

1. Citizens with an average per capita income of 1.5 living wage or less.

2. Representatives of disabled children

3. Minor children

4. Victims of emergency situations and armed conflicts

5. Disabled combatants

Also single disabled people, married couples and elderly citizens from among:

1. Disabled people and WWII participants

2. Spouses of deceased WWII participants who did not remarry

3. Former minor prisoners of fascism

4. Awarded the badge “Resident of besieged Leningrad”

5. Recipients of the medal “For the Defense of Moscow”

6. Heroes of the Soviet Union

7. Heroes of the Russian Federation and full gentlemen Order of Glory

8. Heroes Social. Labor

9. Heroes of Labor of the Russian Federation and full holders of the Order of Labor Glory

10. Disabled combatants

1. WWII veterans and persons equivalent to them - 10% of the cost

2. Citizens with an average per capita income from one and a half to two times the subsistence level - 10% of the cost of social services provided

3. Citizens with an average per capita income from two to two and a half times the subsistence level - 20% of the cost of social services provided

4. Citizens with an average per capita income from two and a half times to three times the subsistence level - 30% of the cost of social services

If you do not fall into these categories or your average per capita income is above the subsistence level, you will have to pay for the services.

Price for home and semi-permanent servicecalculated according to tariffs . The tariff should not exceed the difference of 50% between the average per capita income of a person and the maximum per capita income in the region.

The price for a hospital is calculated according to tariffs that do not exceed 75% of average per capita income.

To understand how this works, here's an example.

Let's take a lonely pensioner from Moscow. He receives 30,000 rubles a month - this is his average per capita income.

The cost of living in Moscow is 15,382 rubles. Find out the minimum in your city on the regional website of the Department of Labor.

Let's multiply this figure by 1.5 living wages:1.5×15,385 = 23,073 rubles

The maximum per capita income for our pensioner is 23,073, which means he will not be able to receive services for free.

To find out the tariff for services at home and in semi-permanent form, we use the formula:
(30 000 income — 23 073 living wage ) x 50%maximum difference = 3,463 rubles

This is the maximum tariff for services per month.

How to get a social service

Free and paid services are provided in different ways. To receive guaranteed services, you need to go through 5 stages:

1. Prepare documents

- Passport
— For a child under 14 years of age, a birth certificate and a certificate of residence
— Passport and power of attorney from a disabled person, if you represent his interests
— Extract from the house register
— Certificate of income for Last year
— A medical certificate of health indicating the category of disability or injury that limits capabilities
— A certificate, certificate or certificate that confirms the right to social assistance, for example, a certificate of a WWII participant

This is not a complete list. Depending on the situation, they may require a certificate of release from prison, a court decision declaring a citizen incompetent, or other certificates. Call local branch social security and ask what documents are needed in your case.

2. Submit an application to social security at your place of residence

3. Wait up to 7 days

Social services are provided in a targeted manner. This means that the commission considers whether you need services or not. Verification takes up to 7 working days. After that, you are either refused or assigned an individual social service program.

On October 25, 2010, speaking at a meeting of the Presidium of the State Council on social policy regarding older citizens, Dmitry Medvedev, who held the post of president at that time, took the initiative to prepare a new law on social services. “One of the tasks of today’s Presidium of the State Council is to summarize and disseminate what is called the best regional practices. Moreover, it [ new law. – Red.] may concern not only older people, but also the entire population of our country,” the politician said then.

And such a law was adopted, and on January 1, 2015 it came into force (Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 442-FZ "" (hereinafter referred to as the new law). At the same time, most of acts that previously regulated social services for citizens have lost force. In particular, the Federal Law of December 10, 1995 No. 195-FZ " " (hereinafter referred to as the old law) and the Federal Law of August 2, 1995 No. 122-FZ " " ceased to apply.

Let's consider what changes citizens need to keep in mind in connection with the entry into force of the new law.

The concept of “recipient of social services” was introduced

On January 1, the term “social service client” () disappeared from the legislation, and the concept “recipient of social services” () was introduced instead. A citizen can be recognized as a recipient of social services if he is in need of social services and is provided with social services.

A citizen is recognized as in need of social services if at least one of the following circumstances exists:

complete or partial loss of the ability for self-care, independent movement, or provision of basic life needs due to illness, injury, age or disability;
the presence in the family of a disabled person or disabled people who need constant outside care;
the presence of a child or children experiencing difficulties in social adaptation;
impossibility of providing care for a disabled person, child, children, as well as lack of care for them;
domestic violence or intra-family conflict, including with persons with drug or alcohol addiction, gambling problems, or those suffering from mental disorders;
lack of a specific place of residence;
lack of work and livelihood;
the presence of other circumstances that are recognized at the regional level as worsening or capable of worsening the living conditions of citizens ().

Now information about recipients of social services is entered into a special register. Its formation is carried out by the subjects of the federation on the basis of data provided by social service providers ().

Until January 1, 2015, social services were provided to citizens in difficult life situations - the new law does not contain such a term, which makes the list of grounds for receiving assistance more unambiguous. The old law understood a difficult life situation as a situation that objectively disrupts the life of a citizen, which he cannot overcome on his own. Usually this meant disability, inability to self-care due to old age, illness, orphanhood, neglect, poverty, unemployment, lack of a specific place of residence, conflicts and abuse in the family, loneliness, etc. ().

OPINION

"In order for the new law to work, each region must adopt 27 regulatory documents. We monitored the readiness of the regions to adopt the new law. By mid-December 2014, only 20 regions had adopted all the necessary regulatory framework, 20 regions accepted less than half, the rest - about half. Every day we try to do everything possible to speed up the adoption of the necessary documents by the regions."

Social service provider identified

The list of types of social services has been expanded

The new law has changed the approach to the content of the list of social services provided. Until December 31, 2014, citizens could receive material and advisory assistance, temporary shelter, social services at home and in inpatient institutions, and also had the right to daytime stay in social service institutions and rehabilitation services ().

After the new law comes into force, citizens can count on providing them with the following types social services:

social and domestic;
socio-medical;
socio-psychological;
socio-pedagogical;
social and labor;
social and legal;
services to increase the communicative potential of recipients of social services with disabilities;
urgent social services ().

Urgent social services include the provision of free hot meals or food packages, clothing, shoes and other essential items, assistance in obtaining temporary housing, provision of legal and emergency psychological assistance, as well as other urgent social services (). A citizen can count on receiving such services within the time frame determined by his need. At the same time, from January 1 of this year, citizens lost the opportunity to receive material assistance in the form of cash, fuel, special vehicles, as well as rehabilitation services that they could have received earlier ().

The procedure for calculating fees for receiving social services has been established

As before, social services can be provided free of charge or for a fee ().

minors;
persons affected by emergency situations, armed international (interethnic) conflicts;
persons with an income equal to or lower than the average per capita income established by the region for the provision of social services free of charge (when receiving social services at home and in a semi-stationary form). Moreover, the amount of such income cannot be lower than one and a half times the regional subsistence minimum.

In addition, in the subjects of the federation there may be other categories of citizens to whom social services are provided free of charge ().

As we can see, unemployed citizens are excluded from the number of persons entitled to free social services (if such a category of citizens is not provided for by the law of the subject of the federation).

Previously, in order to receive free social services for single citizens, the sick, pensioners and disabled people, they needed to have an average per capita income below the regional subsistence level ().

Let's look at an example. The cost of living in the Moscow region for the third quarter of 2014 for pensioners was 6,804 rubles. (Decree of the Government of the Moscow Region dated December 10, 2014 No. 1060/48 ""). This means that before January 1, for example, a single pensioner from the Moscow region with an income of less than 6,804 rubles could apply for a free social service. per month. After the new law comes into force, the amount of income that allows you to qualify for free social services cannot be lower than one and a half times the regional subsistence level. Now, to receive a free social service, all other things being equal, the monthly income of a single pensioner must be 10,206 rubles. or less (1.5 x 6804 rubles) (Law of the Moscow Region dated December 4, 2014 No. 162/2014-OZ "").

For those who are not eligible to receive free social services, there is a fee for their provision. Its amount for services at home and in semi-stationary form is now calculated on the basis of tariffs for social services, but cannot exceed 50% of the difference between the average per capita income of the recipient of social services and the maximum per capita income established by the region. The monthly fee for the provision of social services in a stationary form is calculated on the basis of tariffs for social services, but cannot exceed 75% of the average per capita income of the recipient of social services ().

EXAMPLE

According to the new law, we will calculate the maximum tariff for social services in a semi-stationary form for a single pensioner from the Moscow region with a monthly income of 12 thousand rubles. Payment for social services at home and in semi-stationary form is calculated on the basis of tariffs for social services, but cannot exceed 50% of the difference between the average per capita income of the recipient of social services and the maximum per capita income. The average per capita income of a pensioner is 12 thousand rubles. (only the size of his pension is taken into account, since there are no other family members with income), the maximum per capita income for a single pensioner from the Moscow region is 10,206 rubles.

Therefore, the maximum tariff for social services should be calculated using the following formula:

(RUB 12,000 - RUB 10,206) x 50% = RUB 897

Thus, from January 1, 2015, the tariff for social services provided to a pensioner at home and in a semi-stationary form cannot exceed 897 rubles. This value will change if the pensioner requires hospital treatment. The monthly fee for the provision of social services in a stationary form is calculated on the basis of tariffs for social services, but cannot exceed 75% of the average per capita income of the recipient of social services.

The formula for calculating the tariff will be as follows:

12,000 rub. x 75% = 9000 rub.

Thus, the tariff for treatment in a hospital cannot be more than 9,000 rubles. per month.

Previously, the amount of fees for social services and the procedure for their provision were regulated by government bodies of the constituent entities of the federation and directly by social services ().

The procedure for receiving social services has been changed

From the beginning of this year, in order to receive social services, a citizen must submit an application. Previously, social services were provided on the basis of an appeal - including an oral one - from a citizen, his guardian, trustee, other legal representative, government body, local government, public association (). An application for social services can be written by the citizen himself, his representative or another person (body) in his interests (). You can also submit an application by sending an electronic document, which was not provided for in the previous law.

An individual program for the provision of social services is drawn up with each recipient of social services. It specifies the form of social services, types, volume, frequency, conditions, terms of provision of social services, a list of recommended providers of social services, as well as social support activities. This program is mandatory for the social service provider and recommended for the citizen himself. In other words, the recipient of assistance can refuse some service, but the provider is obliged to provide it at the request of the recipient.

The program is drawn up within no more than 10 working days from the date of submission of the application for social services, and is revised at least once every three years (). Urgent social services are provided without drawing up an individual program (). Previously, the preparation of such programs was not provided for.

After drawing up an individual program and selecting a social services provider, the citizen must enter into an agreement with the provider on the provision of social services (). The contract must stipulate the provisions determined by the individual program, as well as the cost of social services if they are provided for a fee.

OPINION

Galina Karelova, Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council:

“The new law will increase the number of citizens who can qualify for free social services. In addition, the quality, volume and efficiency of their provision will change. Previously, social services were provided based on a group approach. However, all citizens have different needs, income, living conditions. Since January 1, 2015, social programs have been concluded with consumers of social services, which take into account all individual characteristics every consumer."

Social service organization identified

It is interesting that the new law spells out things that are obvious to everyone at first glance: providers of social services do not have the right to limit the rights of recipients of social services; use insults, rude treatment; place disabled children who do not suffer from mental disorders in inpatient organizations intended for disabled children who suffer from mental disorders, and vice versa ().

However, it was still worth emphasizing such prohibitions. For example, numerous cases in Russia of healthy children being placed in organizations for disabled children suffering from mental disorders were noted in a report by the international human rights organization Human Rights Watch in 2014.

The approach to financing social services is fundamentally new. According to the old law, social services were provided to citizens at the expense of the budgets of the constituent entities of the federation (). In this regard, depending on the region, the volumes of social assistance provided varied greatly. Since January 1, 2015, social services are financed from the federal budget, charitable contributions and donations, own funds citizens (when providing social services for a fee), income from business and other income-generating activities carried out by social service organizations, as well as other sources not prohibited by law (). It is expected that this innovation will help equalize the volume of social services provided in different regions.

But there is also a fly in the ointment in the new rules. Thus, the new law does not establish any requirements for staffing social services. Let us recall that previously only specialists who had a professional education corresponding to the requirements and nature of the work performed, experience in the field of social services, and who were inclined, due to their personal qualities, to providing social services () could be social service workers.
