The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) said on Tuesday (5) that there was a change in the rules for scheduling medical inspections in granting disability benefits (sickness, accident assistance and disability retirement).
The amendments contained in the normative instruction 64, published in the "Official Gazette" on Friday (1).
According to the INSS, the normative instruction provides that the insured may only carry new application for disability benefits after 30 days from the date of completion of the initial examination before (DRE) or the Date of Termination Benefit (DCB) or Date Administrative Termination (DCA) - as each case.
According to the INSS, the change happened because the insured who had spent the first skill, but lacked the benefit granted, scheduled the new skill in other branches of Social Security. According to the government survey, 23% of the demand for expertise corresponds to initial appointments made by the second, third or fourth time by the same person.
"The goal is to expand the service to policyholders who have not yet passed the initial medical examination," said the INSS.
In case of termination due to the benefit (DCB), the insured must be directed to the possibility of requesting, as appropriate, Request for Extension (PP), Request for Reconsideration (PR) and Request for Appeal to the Board of Appeals of the Board of Resources Social Security, the federal government added.
Another change made, according to the government, is the possibility that the Request for Reconsideration (PR) be performed by any medical expert, including the same medical examiner who performed the previous review - which was not possible by previous rules.
