The law included some aspects that were mentioned and prescribed in Russia for the first time. First of all, we are talking about the involvement of non-state organizations in this activity. commercial organizations And individual entrepreneurs. The prerequisites for such a cardinal decision were, in many respects, large queues of citizens wishing to become a recipient of services, which testified to the insolvency of the system of social services that existed at that time and, accordingly, the laws in force in this area.

Consider the main innovations that followed the adoption of this law:

  • Involvement of commercial and non-profit organizations in the field of social services, provided state support(reducing the tax rate, subsidizing);

  • The grounds for recognizing a person in need of assistance were clearly spelled out. For comparison, in the law of 1995, the wording “difficult life situation” was prescribed as a basis, which inevitably entailed divergences in interpretation;
  • The system of support for orphans has changed, the authority for guardianship over which has been transferred to the jurisdiction of the social protection authorities;

Thus, the system of social services included organizations that are under the jurisdiction of the authorized body of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation, if, in accordance with the provisions of Law 442-FZ, they were given the authority to recognize citizens as needy and to draw up individual programs on the territory of one or more municipalities.

Wording clause 13 of part 2 of article 7 FZ-442 was shortened: the words “provision of social services (hereinafter referred to as the individual program)” were excluded.

Thus, the powers of the state authorities of the subjects of Russia in the field of social services included the definition of the authorized body of the subject of the Russian Federation, and also, if necessary, by an authorized organization.

A similar clarification applies to Article 14, paragraph 2 of Article 15 and paragraph 4 of Article 16, in which the wording "authorized body of the Russian Federation" was supplemented by "authorized organization".

Let us also consider several separate articles of the FZ-442 law, which are of great importance within the framework of this legislative act.

Article 15 FZ-442 determines the procedure for recognizing a citizen in need of social services. The following circumstances may serve as grounds for recognition under the law:

  • Loss of the ability to carry out self-care, move without assistance, providing basic physiological and other needs due to illness, injury, age or disability;
  • The presence in the family of a disabled person in need of constant outside care;

  • The impossibility of providing care for a disabled person, a child (children) or the lack of care for them;
  • Family violence, the presence of drug, alcohol or other addictions among family members;
  • Lack of a fixed place of residence. In a special manner, this ground is prescribed for former pupils of orphanages and persons left without parental care, who have not reached the age of 23;
  • Lack of work, and, accordingly, means of subsistence;
  • Other circumstances recognized as worsening the life of citizens in accordance with the laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

The authorized body or organization, in accordance with the law FZ-442 on social services for citizens, is obliged to make a decision on recognizing a person as in need of assistance or on refusal within 5 days from the date of application. The answer is given in writing or electronic form. The decision to provide urgent services is made immediately. If the applicant considers that the refusal received by him is unlawful and contrary to the law, he has the right to appeal the decision in court.

Article 13 442-FZ regulates aspects of the obligations of social service providers in the field of ensuring information openness in the course of their activities. Thus, suppliers are obliged to form publicly available information resources containing information about their activities and provide access to these resources by posting them on information stands in their offices, as well as in the media, the Internet - on the official website.

Also, a certain list of information and documents (Part 2 of Article 13) should be posted on the official website, updated in case of any changes within ten working days. The procedure for posting and updating information is established by the authorized federal executive body.

Article 16 FZ-442 contains provisions related to the development and application of an individual program for the provision of services. This is a document that indicates information about the form, types, volume, frequency, conditions and terms for the provision of social services. The program also includes lists of recommended suppliers and support activities (Article 22 of the law). It is compiled in accordance with the needs of the person and is revised depending on changes in the circumstances that determine given need. It is reviewed at least once every three years.

Read more about the conditions for drawing up a document and the effect of its provisions in the text of the law (Article 16). A link to download the law FZ-442 is given in the last subtitle of this article.

Article 21 FZ-442 describes what is included in the concept of "urgent social services":

  • providing free meals or food packages, clothing, footwear and other essentials;
  • assistance in obtaining temporary housing and providing the necessary legal assistance;
  • creation of conditions for the provision of emergency psychological assistance with the involvement of psychologists and clergy and other urgent services.

The name of the services speaks for itself - they must be provided without delay, i.е. without drawing up an individual program or contract for the provision of services. According to the law, both the application of a citizen and the receipt of relevant information from representatives of other state structures (medical, educational) can serve as the basis. Confirmation is the relevant act, including information about the recipient and provider, types of urgent social services provided, terms, date and conditions of provision. Certified by the recipient's signature.

Article 31 442 FZ prescribes that home care, as well as inpatient and semi-residential forms are provided free of charge to children and persons affected by emergencies or armed national conflicts. All this provided that at the time of applying, the average income per family member is equal to or below the threshold determined by the laws of the subject of the Russian Federation (often equal to one and a half subsistence minimums).

Download the text of the law on social services

The text of this law may be useful both to human rights activists and officials, and ordinary citizens who wish to expand their knowledge in the field of their own rights and freedoms provided for by law.

We offer to download the law in the latest edition, which has entered into force at the moment.

Regions can 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 wages or less.

2. Representatives of children with disabilities

3. Minor children

4. Affected by emergencies and armed conflicts

5. Disabled combat

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

1. Disabled people and participants in the Second World War

2. Spouses of the dead participants of the Great Patriotic War who did not remarry

3. Former juvenile prisoners of fascism

4. Awarded with the badge "Inhabitant of besieged Leningrad"

5. Awarded with the medal "For the Defense of Moscow"

6. Heroes of the Soviet Union

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

8. Geroev Sots. Labor

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

10. Disabled fighting

1. Veterans of the Second World War and persons equated to them - 10% of the cost

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

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

4. Citizens with an average per capita income of two and a half to three times the subsistence minimum - 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 value of the average per capita income in the region.

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

To understand how it works, here is 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.

Multiply this figure by 1.5 living wages:1.5 × 15,385 = 23,073 rubles

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

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

This is the maximum rate for services per month.

How to get a social service

Free and paid services provided differently. To get guaranteed services, you need to go through 5 stages:

1. Prepare documents

- The passport
– For a child under 14 years of age, a birth certificate and a certificate of residence

- Statement of income Last year
– A medical certificate of health, which indicates the category of disability or injury that limits the ability
– A certificate, certificate or certificate that confirms the right to social assistance, for example, a certificate of a participant in the Great Patriotic War

This is an incomplete 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 your local social security office and ask what documents are needed in your case.

2. Apply for Social Security where you live

3. Wait up to 7 days

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