Orthopedic footwear under IPR

The IPR at the expense of the STF includes TP (including orthopedic shoes) ONLY in pathology leading to ALS.
In other cases it is possible to include RTF (including orthopedic shoes), but in this case you should indicate in the 'contractor' column: 'disabled person self-employed' or 'at the expense of the disabled person'. Regarding the possibility of including technical means of rehabilitation (TCPs) in the individual rehabilitation program of a disabled person (IPR) at the expense of the Social Insurance Fund of the Russian Federation for the corresponding pathology, I would like to inform you that in accordance with Article 11.1 of Federal Law No. 181-FZ of 11/24/1995. 'On social protection of people with disabilities in the Russian Federation', the decision to provide technical aids to people with disabilities is made based on the results of a study conducted by the Office of Medical and Social Expert Opinion: 'On on the basis of medical indications, the need to provide people with disabilities with technical means of rehabilitation that allow compensation or elimination of the permanent limitations in the daily activities of the disabled person is identified'. According to the clause. 1 Procedure for developing and conducting an individual rehabilitation program for a disabled person (disabled child), approved by Order No. 379n of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation of August 4, 2008, the IPR during the medico-social assessment developed on the basis of the assessment of limitations in performing activities of daily living caused by permanent impairment of bodily functions and opportunities for rehabilitation. The nature and degree of impairment of bodily functions and possible limitations in carrying out activities of daily living are determined on the basis of the 'classifications and criteria used when conducting medico-social assessments of citizens by the federal state bodies for medico-social assessment are used', approved by Order No. 1013n of the Ministry of Health Protection and Social Development of the Russian Federation of December 23, 2009 (classifications). The determination of the degree of functional impairment according to point 4 of the classification is carried out comprehensively, ie taking into account all parameters that characterize the functional impairment. Therefore, TCP is recommended for compensating or eliminating permanent disability due to permanent impairment of bodily functions. In cases where, according to the results of a medico-social expert opinion, the impairments in body functions, including those caused by a coexisting pathology, do not lead to a restriction in activities of daily living, there are no grounds for establishing disability . Therefore, there is no legal basis for registering a disease in the PWTW that does not lead to restrictions in carrying out activities of daily living. In order for orthopedic shoes to be included in the IPR of a disabled person, the referral to the MSE on Form 0-88/ must be accompanied by an application from the Medical Technical Committee (ITC File), made by orthopedists and prosthetists from the medical departments of the prosthetic and orthopedic facilities is created. In most cases, the patient receives the referral to the prosthetic/orthopaedic facility for the preparation of such an opinion from the MTPB, which issues a referral to the ITC on Form 0-88/u.
Rarely do the patients turn to the prosthetic/orthopaedic facilities themselves and receive an expert opinion from the IKU on the need for orthopedic shoes.
In both the first and second cases, the patient's need for orthopedic footwear must be indicated when referring to the ICU using the 0-88/u form. Medical indications for providing disabled people with orthopedic shoes:
Persistent moderate to severe impairment of statodynamic function leading to OJD in the independent mobility category (this is a prerequisite) due to disease, sequelae of trauma, foot deformities: Static insufficiency of the feet with pronounced anatomical signs; Shortening of the limbs by more than 30 mm; congenital and amputated foot defects; debilitating foot deformities; congenital deformities (equino-varus deformity (clubfoot), equinus (horse foot), flatfoot, etc. etc.); residual deformities after foot trauma; ankylosis of the ankle; lymphostasis (elephantiasis) and acromegaly; Use of fixation devices and dead foot, diabetic foot syndrome. Orthopedic footwear is not included (and will not be performed) in the IPR for patients who have foot deformities but have serious comorbidities that preclude walking in orthopedic footwear. Absolute medical contraindications for the provision of orthopedic footwear for people with disabilities:
Extensive trophic ulcers of the foot, gangrene, extensive purulent processes in the soft tissues, lack of mobility of the lower limbs due to extensive healed ulcer-prone lesions, elderly people with pronounced general deconditioning and immobility.
Allergic reactions to the materials of the orthopedic equipment.

What are orthopedic shoes?

Orthopedic shoes have a special construction and are made only from natural materials. These shoes have a relatively stiff insole to provide good foot support, inner inserts to fix the ankle, special insoles and padding. All of this equipment is designed to keep the foot in the correct position and distribute the load evenly across the foot.
In addition, orthopedic shoes for the foot always have a wide forefoot so that the foot can sit comfortably. True orthopedic shoes are tailor-made shoes that take into account the anatomy and deformities of the feet.
It follows that special orthopedic shoes serve a specific purpose: to correct foot deformities and reduce pain when walking.

The list of categories of Russians who can get special shoes includes:

Group 1 invalids and children with disabilities are entitled to free shoes.
In addition, families with many children and families with low income can also receive special shoes free of charge. Persons with category 2 and 3 disabilities are entitled to orthopedic footwear at half price.
Individuals in these categories may receive shoes through an orthopedic shoe manufacturer participating in a special government program if they have the following abnormalities:

  • cerebral palsy with muscular atrophy of the legs,
  • severe foot deformities,
  • Infections and congenital foot deformities ,
  • amputation of stumps ,
  • diabetes mellitus (diabetic foot),
  • Limb shortening of more than 30 mm
  • joint prostheses etc.

According to the law, people with disabilities can get 1 pair of orthopedic shoes per season (spring-summer and autumn-winter). Children with disabilities receive 4 pairs of orthopedic shoes per year on request.

As with other forms of social assistance, orthopedic shoes are granted at the request of the disabled person. In order to receive the shoes, an application must therefore be submitted to the Ministry of Social Affairs. First of all, it is necessary to draw up an individual rehabilitation program, which will include a recommendation for the use of orthopedic shoes.
The IPR does not recommend orthopedic shoes to all disabled people, only to those who have been diagnosed with an illness that affects their ability to function.

This recommendation must be submitted to the social welfare office with the application:

  • Individual rehabilitation card
  • Transfer from the Social Insurance Institution (can be requested from the MFC).
  • (can be requested from the MFC).
  • Passport and a copy of the same.
  • Completed shoe order forms
  • Report of the endocrinologist if you have diabetes.
  • For children – passport of one parent, birth certificate.
  • Certificate of Disability.

People with disabilities can get free shoes immediately, but have to wait longer for their shoes to be made. The deadline for manufacture is determined by the Ministry of Social Affairs. If a disabled person wishes to receive the shoes sooner, they can pay for the cost of the shoes and submit proof of payment to the Department of Social Welfare for a refund. The only thing to keep in mind is that the reimbursement of orthopedic aids is limited. Therefore, if there is no way to pay the difference, it is better to choose cheaper shoes.

Once all the paperwork has been submitted, the disabled person must go to the orthopedic shoe manufacturer to be measured.

7 thoughts on ' Orthopedic shoes: how to choose and get them for free '

Good morning! Can you tell me what to do? I have a Polyclinic Orthopedist's Certification-Recommendation, a Leading Orthopedic Surgeon's Certification-Recommendation from the Albrecht Orthopedic Research Institute. There's a podiatrist's certificate from the CDC, and there's even an MTC statute about the need for orthopedic footwear. I am 3 gr. handicapped. Spine, diabetes, numb toes and feet, stage 2 osteoarthritis and valgus and much more. But even on January 10, orthopedic shoes were not registered with the IPR, despite the recommendations of experts. Apparently complicated shoes are only given to people with severed toes. Where can I get more information?

Hello Galina!
Medical indications for the provision of orthopedic shoes for people with disabilities:
Persistent moderate to severe impairment of statodynamic function leading to OJD in the independent mobility category (this is a prerequisite) due to disease, sequelae of trauma, foot deformities: Static insufficiency of the feet with pronounced anatomical signs; Shortening of the limbs by more than 30 mm; congenital and amputated foot defects; debilitating foot deformities; congenital deformities (equino-varus deformity (clubfoot), equinus (horse foot), flatfoot, etc. etc.); residual deformities after foot trauma; ankylosis of the ankle; lymphostasis (elephantiasis) and acromegaly; Use of fixation devices and dead foot, diabetic foot syndrome.
Orthopedic footwear is not included (and will not be performed) in the IPR for patients who have foot deformities but have serious comorbidities that preclude walking in orthopedic footwear.
Absolute medical contraindications for the provision of orthopedic footwear for people with disabilities:
Extensive trophic ulcers of the foot, gangrene, extensive suppurative processes in the soft tissues, lack of mobility of the lower limbs due to extensive healed and ulcer-prone lesions, as well as in people of advanced age with pronounced general decompensation and immobility.

Types of rehabilitation aids for people with disabilities

The choice of rehabilitation tool depends on the goal to be achieved. They can be divided into different types. Fixed beds include all types of multi-segment beds and anti-decubitus mattresses. Personal rehabilitation aids include sanitary supplies, pads, diapers, towels and sheets. Mobility aids include canes, crutches, walkers, and wheelchairs.

Most products are designed to be used independently by a sick or disabled person. Before purchasing any rehabilitation device, you should consult a doctor and determine the needs of the person for whom the device is intended.

decubitus mattresses

Decubitus mattresses are designed to provide a comfortable body position for people who are bedridden, bedridden for an extended period of time, or in post-surgical rehabilitation. They are designed to meet medical recommendations to prevent pressure sores, swelling and numbness in your arms, legs, neck and lower back.

The use of special mattresses allows the load to be evenly distributed, prevents blood stasis and gently massages through air circulation. You can order a mattress in Moscow in the catalogs of stores.

What documents do I need to apply for compensation for shoes?

In order for an application for compensation to be accepted, all the necessary documents must be collected before submitting the application to the competent authority:

documentWhere to get
Russian passportDEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF THE MINISTRY OF THE INTERIOR
Certificate of the statutory pension insurance (SNILS)FIU
Individual rehabilitation programBureau of Medical and Social Advice
Medical and social expert reportMSE office
Receipt of payment for orthopedic footwearPlace of purchase of the footwear
Passport and Power of Attorney (if the documents are submitted by a lawyer)The disabled person can write the power of attorney themselves without having it notarized
Child's birth certificate (if the shoes are required for a child under 14 years old)registry office.

You must also provide all documents proving that the shoes are fit for purpose and have been used as intended. In the case of shoes, the following documents must be collected:

  • sales slip and receipt for the shoes;
  • a photocopy of the quality certificate and a photocopy of the marketing authorization for the product group concerned.

The legislation on.

Mistake: The orthopedic shoes have not yet expired and the disabled person needs a new pair of shoes.

Remarks: If the useful life of the shoes has not yet expired, the shoes must be repaired in a specialized facility. If the shoes cannot be repaired, a medical-technical report must be obtained - the shoes will then be replaced ahead of schedule.

Mistake: The disabled person has not researched what types of shoes are reimbursable.

Remarks: It is important that you obtain a list of orthopedic shoe models beforehand so that you know for sure which pair can be reimbursed at the STF cost. For example, when buying shoes from a specialized online store, look for shoes that have the 'STF' symbol next to their image.

Private sellers of medical equipment as an alternative to the STF

Private companies selling medical technology as an alternative to the FSS

Public institutions hold tenders for the purchase of technical rehabilitation equipment. The auction system for goods is structured in such a way that the lowest bidder wins the contract. On the one hand, the low price saves money on the budget, on the other hand, the question arises: how good will the inexpensive rehabilitation goods be and how effectively will they perform their function?

Practice shows the truth of the saying "cheap cheese in the mouse". Many citizens who received technical rehabilitation funds through the STF department complain that the technical rehabilitation funds they received are totally inadequate for their purpose. Leaky diapers, uncomfortable anti-decubitus mattresses, clunky wheelchairs - the list goes on. Of course, one can try to assert one's rights and obtain an individual contract for the purchase of the necessary equipment, but how much effort and time will this procedure take? Those who are not willing to spend their energy on free but cheap transportation aids can more easily buy quality products themselves and thus make financial gain.

Danger!!! If you buy a self-financed aid with the hope of later financial reimbursement from the Social Insurance Institution, it should be noted that the costs are only partially reimbursed.

Not so long ago, compensation had no value limit and citizens bought high-quality and safe products for themselves and received full reimbursement. Convenience, quality and aesthetics are not insignificant, which is why RTGs you buy yourself cost a lot more than the auctioned ones. The crisis of recent years has left the household with insufficient funds for expensive PPE, and the amount of compensation is limited by law to the cost of centrally ordered items. Practice shows, however, that citizens are willing to subsidize with their money, but only use products that really serve rehabilitation purposes.
