Give $ 4-6 thousand or go: how MSEC earns on a military with disabilities

Employees of medical and social examination centers are not ashamed to make money with disabilities. As an alternative to money, doctors suggest that fighters cut off the limbs for the sake of assignment of the desired group. The most expensive is the first group, which is given in the most severe cases, told the focus of the source in the MSEC. Participants of hostilities face a disrespectful attitude from the employees of centers of medical and social examination (MSEC).

The requirement of bribes for the design of disability groups has become quite common, say the focus of the source in the MSEC. The interlocutors talk about unspoken "tariffs" to receive a disability group for the Armed Forces fighters who returned from the front and got serious injuries. According to them, the third group will cost about $ 4,000 and the second one - $ 5,000. The price for the first group can reach up to $ 6,000 if there are appropriate injuries.

Leaves a better recent example with Dmitry Oliynyk, a fighter who defended Kharkiv from the Russian invaders and was seriously injured in the first days of the invasion. To arrange a disability group, he contacted the Kharkiv Regional Center of the MSEC. His head Larisa Bunichev found nothing better than advising to cut off his leg. "So why did you leave your foot, it was necessary to be cut off and there would be 2nd group. It looks like thanks to the people who stood up for the state.

So then it was necessary to die in one of the storms . . . man and to say, "If there was an amputation-there would be 2nd group,"-quoted the military response of the MSEC chairman. He was awarded the third group of disability. Incorrect statements, decisions and bribes were made by MSEC employees is extremely difficult to stop, said in communication With the focus, a lawyer in the field of military law Mykola Maximov.

Special doctors work as part of the commission and reform the whole system is an extremely difficult task. "In the conditions of war, those who were injured need disability. MSEC policy is reduced to rigid criteria. In case of disagreement with the decision of the commission, you can write a complaint in the Ministry of Health, but it is ineffective, " - said the lawyer. Another option, as Maksimov says, is an appeal of the MSEC verdict in the courts.

There will be a little easier with bureaucracy, but the effect will also be minimal. There were attempts to fight the Military Medical Commissions at the Tax Code, and abuse in the MSEC in the processes of issuing certificates and acts remained unpunished, the lawyer said. In September, law enforcement officers exposed a group of Sambir officials (MSEC) and Turkiv city hospital. military for establishing the 2nd group of disability to his father to complete the service.

For the registration of the necessary documents they invited $ 3 200. During the detention the deputy chairman Almost $ 30,000, more than 10 600 euros, 37,000 hryvnias and 520 PLN. Another example of bribery was in the Kiev region. The MSEC expert and his mediator wanted to decorate the husband of the 2nd group of disability for life for $ 2,000. And in Kharkiv, at the request of the same amount from the mobilized, in August, the registrar of the regional MSEC No. 4 was judged.

The Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office reported that the woman was detained while receiving $ 1,000 from the customer. At home, in the car and in the workplace, the MSEC employee conducted searches. The official found more than half a million hryvnias. We will remind that the mayor of Sumy Alexander Lysenko, who was suspected of receiving a bribe, was recently released from the pre -trial detention center. The official made the required collateral.
