Controversial situations with paid sick leave until 2022

Despite the complete digitalization and calculation of FSS benefits, the accounting department needs to be “on alert” - if a request is received from the fund, it is necessary to provide the necessary information about the employee within 3 days.

New procedure for issuing electronic certificates of incapacity for work

Since 2022, a non-declaration procedure for paying sick leave by the social insurance fund has been introduced.

Direct payments: changes from January 1, 2022

The Fund independently determines the payment of four types of benefits:

temporary disability benefits,
maternity benefits;
lump sum benefit for the birth of a child;
monthly child care allowance.

Please note that child care benefits are not on this list.

Duration for which the document is opened

The patient's health status affects the timing of document opening. If a person does not feel well after surgery, the rest period is extended after visiting the doctor. Dentists are mid-level medical specialists, and therefore have the right to issue a bulletin for five days. Therapists issue documents on incapacity for work for a period of ten to thirty days.

Important! Often the newsletter is issued by a general practitioner instead of a dentist. For this reason, in the “diagnosis” column there is no indication of surgery to remove a wisdom tooth.

The employer is being disingenuous if he says that only doctors at a state clinic can be released from work. The certificate can be issued by specialists from a private clinic. The main thing is that the organization has a license to provide medical services and conduct an examination of temporary disability (clause 2 of Order No. 624n).

Therefore, you can have a tooth removed in any clinic where it is convenient.

How electronic interaction with the Social Insurance Fund is structured

Information about the opening, extension, closure, and cancellation of electronic sick leave is collected and stored in the Social Insurance system.

The FSS will send information about the opening, extension, closure, and cancellation of an electronic sick leave to the organization via the EDI system.

Most of the information about employees in the fund is already available. In addition, the FSS can receive data through the interdepartmental information exchange system from the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, the Federal Tax Service, the Civil Registry Office and other government agencies.

In turn, the employer must place in the Social Insurance system the information necessary to calculate benefits for each sick leave and sign them with an enhanced qualified electronic signature (UKES):.

insurance experience;
the amounts of payments and rewards that were included in the base for calculating insurance premiums; if during the billing period the employee worked in another organization, then broken down by year of the billing period;
regional coefficient;
the amount of wages retained during the period of inactivity;
the period of absence of the employee from work due to temporary disability;
the number of days of sick leave, maternity or child care leave, periods of release from work with retention of salary, if contributions were not accrued for it.

The employer has only three days to provide information! If the accounting department does not have any documents, they must be obtained from the employee.

Next, the FSS itself will calculate the amount of benefits and pay the employee to his bank card.

Information on the assignment and payment of benefits will be posted in the Unified State Information System for Social Security (USISSO) and sent to citizens in their personal account on the government services portal.

Issuance of sick leave after wisdom tooth extraction and other dental procedures

The procedure for registering sick leave due to tooth extraction or for other reasons related to dentistry is no different from registering sick leave for any other illness.

However, there are still some nuances.

When applying for sick leave, they are guided by the developed form of the certificate of incapacity for work and the relevant legislative acts

The procedure for registering sick leave is regulated by the following legislative acts:

Article 183 of the Labor Code. According to this article, during an illness, an employee may not go to work and not perform his job duties, without losing his salary and seniority. In addition, he can also receive additional social guarantees during his illness
Federal Law No. 255 dated December 29, 2006. The article spells out the responsibilities that must be fulfilled by employers and employees of the enterprise, employees of the Social Insurance Fund and medical institutions regarding the issuance of sick leave.
Order of the Ministry of Health No. 624n dated June 29, 2011. It provides legal regulation of the general procedure for issuing sick leave and standards that determine the period when an employee is considered temporarily disabled and may be on sick leave
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 375 of June 15, 2007. It sets out the general procedure for calculating payments for the period when the employee was on sick leave. We are talking about persons participating in the social insurance system
Order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation No. 347n dated April 26, 2011. The document spells out the form of sick leave that doctors prescribe to patients, the rules for their execution and other nuances of document management of this kind.

Rules for issuing sick leave for child care

Sick leave for caring for a sick child is issued for the entire period of treatment of the child on an outpatient or inpatient basis if:

The child is under 15 years old.
Disabled child.
A child under 18 years of age is HIV positive.
A child under 18 years of age has post-vaccination complications and malignant neoplasms.

In other cases of caring for a sick family member during outpatient treatment, hospital leave will be issued for no more than 7 calendar days for each case of illness.

Is the bulletin required when visiting a dentist?

Modern dentistry is well developed, so in most cases there are no unpleasant consequences after operations.
Still, it cannot be guaranteed that tooth extraction will take place without problems, so doctors advise obtaining a certificate of incapacity for work in order to rest peacefully after the operation. But it is not always possible to draw up a document. 5 cases when a ballot is issued:

Problems arise with molar removal. The doctor has to drill into the bone tissue or partially remove the gum. Such operations are often performed when the tooth has not fully erupted.
A medical error has been made. Even an experienced doctor can make a mistake, which will lead to unpleasant consequences.
The patient developed an allergic reaction to the drug. Often a person does not realize that he is intolerant to certain components of the medicine. Therefore, there is a reaction in the form of malaise or swelling. Sometimes hospital treatment may be required.
Before the operation began, an infectious infection of the tissue around the tooth occurred. Do not delay visiting the dental clinic. Soft tissues are damaged while the tooth grows. This fact leads to infection occurring. You may need emergency medical attention.

Sick leave for tooth extraction is necessary for emergency surgery because the dentist did not provide the necessary preparation. After the removal of a wisdom tooth, a bulletin is issued for the entire period of inpatient treatment.

The person does not feel well after the procedures, so a sick leave is required upon removal. Adverse consequences occur if hygiene is not maintained after removal.

An unfavorable consequence of the operation is a rise in temperature, swelling of the cheeks or gums. These reasons are enough for the dentist to give you a sick leave.

So, the reasons listed are enough to answer positively the question, is sick leave given for tooth extraction? The operation itself is not a reason to exempt a person from going to work. If complications arise, sick leave is issued.

Is sick leave given for tooth extraction, prosthetics, toothache?

The question of whether sick leave is given when removing a wisdom tooth or other teeth is relevant for many Russian citizens. After all, dentistry has certain specific legal regulations - therefore, both employees and employers should know whether sick leave is given for dental treatment, toothache or prosthetics. Otherwise, ignorance of the procedure for providing sick leave during tooth extraction can lead to unpleasant consequences for both the employee and the employer.

Sick leave from the Dentist for how many days

This question is not so simple - it is known that dentists have always rarely issued sick leave. The issue of issuance is decided depending on whether the medical institution has the right to carry out work on the examination of temporary disability. According to current legislation, dentists can issue certificates of incapacity for work only in individual cases and by decision of the executive authorities of the Russian Federation in the field of healthcare.

One day, my husband had a toothache, and that day he had to go to work. He went to the dentist, who put medicine on his tooth and told him to come back in three days. And on this day, that his husband came to him, he gave him a sick leave. I wrote it out for just one day.

Sick leave for tooth extraction

Surgical tooth extraction is a procedure that can cause complications, and unforeseen situations may arise during the operation. That is why a surgeon can issue a sick leave after such an intervention.

Sick leave for tooth extraction is issued for the following reasons:

Is sick leave given after the removal of eights and other teeth, for gumboils and toothache?

»» Sick, aching teeth are a problem that makes a person run to the dentist for help under any circumstances.
Difficulties with “eights” (or wisdom teeth, as we used to call them), as well as inflammation, which is called gumboil, are considered especially dangerous. If the disease is not treated, it will lead to complications including death.

In advanced cases and if severe pain occurs, removal on an outpatient basis will be difficult, and you will have to resort to surgery on the wisdom molar. In this case, the question arises: is it possible to obtain sick leave after the removal of a wisdom tooth? We will try to answer it in this article.

The operation to get rid of figure eights is specific and differs markedly from manipulations to remove other teeth.

Naturally, there are cases when a molar is easily removed with ordinary forceps, but such situations are very rare. Removal often requires a series of surgical procedures.

Good anesthesia and experienced specialists will help solve the problem of toothache, but there are a number of complications that can arise after the operation. Along with unpleasant sensations and even pain, as in the case of other teeth, bad breath and a hematoma in the area may appear. surgery, re-bleeding may occur if the blood clot remaining in the socket is damaged, or if there is an increase in blood pressure. These conditions are dangerous and require immediate medical intervention. With simple removal of wisdom teeth in the classical way, the healing time of the hole does not differ from usual. Complications may arise during surgical intervention, and the patient’s recovery time will take much longer than if a tooth is pulled out with forceps.

It is in this case that a person may need several days to come to his senses. READ ALSO: However, the issuance of sick leave depends on a number of factors. For example, was there a complex operation involving damage to bone tissue, was there an allergy to the anesthetic, were there any postoperative complications, as well as inflammatory processes? After the operation to remove the figure eight, after 10 minutes you need to remove the cotton swab applied by the doctor so as not to cause an infection. During the first three days, you should strictly follow your dentist's instructions.

At the same time, it is not at all necessary to lie down in bed - you can go about your daily activities, but adjusted for medical recommendations. After 2-3 days, as a rule, the doctor prescribes a preventive examination to examine the wound and understand how it is healing. Recovery time is different for everyone - it depends on a number of factors. For example, on the patient’s age, the body’s ability to regenerate and many others.

The question of how long the period after

Immediately after the figure eight and the roots from above or on the lower jaw have been pulled out, you can feel dizziness, nausea, general weakness, decreased performance, and all because the body has experienced stress and is now actively healing (the open hole in the jaw is gradually closing). In the first week, the toothache should go away, otherwise the increase in symptoms indicates a complication, then a sick leave is given.

What is needed to obtain sick leave after wisdom tooth removal?

Recently, the procedure for obtaining sick leave has been greatly simplified and in most cases the only thing required of the patient is to visit the doctor himself and then take the corresponding document to the accounting department at the place of request. You only need to have an identification document with you. Sick leave is issued only on a special form with a watermark. These precautions are taken to prevent document falsification.

Please note that according to the law, both public and private clinics have the right to issue such documents. Unscrupulous employers often take advantage of their employees' lack of awareness of the rules described in the Labor Code. To receive payments, they require visiting only government clinics and receiving certificates from these institutions. In fact, the employer is simply looking for a reason to refuse to pay sick leave, although for the most part he does not lose much, because most of the payments are made from the Insurance Fund. Basically, a person pays for his own sick leave. Only the first three days are paid by the employer. Everything else is deducted from the Fund, to which the person contributed part of his salary throughout his work.

Minimum term

Legislative acts do not establish a minimum number of days of sick leave. The period of incapacity for work is determined only by the attending physician, based on the characteristics of the disease and the current condition of the patient. The exact number of days directly depends on the patient’s well-being and the period of necessary rehabilitation. The following rehabilitation conditions are distinguished:

outpatient;
day hospital;
hospital

Often the minimum rehabilitation period, determined by the attending physician, is 3 days. If the patient is provided with outpatient treatment, then a certificate of temporary incapacity for work is issued for 15 days. If necessary and with the consent of the medical advisory commission, it is extended.

How to calculate how much money I am entitled to for sick leave due to coronavirus?

Step 1 - calculate the total income for the last two years. For example, 2022 - 360,000 rubles, 2022 - 420,000 rubles.

Step 2 - calculate the average earnings for 1 day, that is, divide the amount of earnings for 2 years by 731. In this case, it turns out:

(360,000 + 420,000) / 731 = 1,067 rubles.

Step 3 - we calculate the daily sick leave payment based on the current work experience:

a) Less than six months - the amount of daily payment corresponds to the minimum wage (currently - 404.33 rubles (if there are 30 days in a month) or 391.29 rubles (31 days).

b) Less than 5 years - 60% of the average daily earnings are due, in our example it is 640 rubles.

c) From 5 to 8 years - 80% of the average daily earnings, in our example it is 854.6 rubles.

d) More than 8 years - 100% of the average daily earnings, in this case it is 1067 rubles.

Each working day missed by the employee due to health reasons is paid. The maximum period of sick leave can be extended to 10 months by decision of the medical commission.

If the specifics of the job and the enterprise do not allow switching to a remote work format, the employer can arrange downtime for reasons beyond his control and, with the consent of the employee, provide him with annual paid leave or leave at his own expense.

The employer pays the employee himself for the first three days of sick leave. Next, the funds are accrued from the Social Insurance Fund, in favor of which tax was withheld from the employee’s wages. In accordance with the Federal Law “On the National Payment System” (161-FZ), funds from the Social Insurance Fund can only be credited to the MIR card.
