On August 4, 2013, Order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation dated April 23, 2013 No. 240n “On the procedure and timing for medical workers and pharmaceutical workers to undergo certification to obtain a qualification category” (hereinafter referred to as the Procedure). In this regard, Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation dated July 25, 2011 No. 808n “On the procedure for obtaining qualification categories by medical and pharmaceutical workers” has become invalid. Today we will tell you what has changed in the certification procedure for medical and pharmaceutical workers, and compare the previous and current procedures .

General provisions

The procedure establishes the rules for certification of medical and pharmaceutical workers. This procedure applies to specialists with secondary medical and pharmaceutical education, specialists with higher professional education engaged in medical and pharmaceutical activities.

As before, certification of specialists is carried out for positions provided for by the current nomenclature of positions for medical and pharmaceutical workers, in three qualification categories (second, first and highest) once every five years. At the same time, the qualification category assigned to the employee is also valid for five years from the date of publication of the relevant administrative act. Specialists can apply for assignment to a higher qualification category before the expiration of the specified period, but not earlier than three years from the date of assignment of the qualification category.

The work experience requirements for obtaining qualification categories have been adjusted. Work experience in a specialty now does not depend on the education received by the employee. Thus, to obtain the second qualification category, at least three years of work experience in the specialty (in a position) is required, to obtain the first category - at least five years of experience, highest category- experience of at least seven years.

For comparison, let’s say: previously, in order to receive the highest qualification category, it was necessary to have at least 10 years of experience for specialists with higher professional education and at least seven years of experience for specialists with secondary vocational education.

In addition to experience, the Procedure establishes requirements for theoretical knowledge and practical skills of specialists. In particular, based on P. 8 of the Procedure, a specialist applying for the second qualification category must:

have theoretical training and practical skills in the field of their professional activities;
navigate modern scientific and technical information, have the skills to analyze quantitative and qualitative performance indicators, and prepare a report on the work.

To obtain the first qualification category, a specialist must:

have theoretical training and practical skills in the field of their professional activities and related disciplines;
use modern methods of diagnosis, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and own diagnostic and treatment equipment in the field of their professional activities;
be able to competently analyze professional performance indicators and navigate modern scientific and technical information;
participate in solving tactical issues of organizing professional activities.

note

To receive the highest qualification category, based on clause 10 of the Procedure, a specialist must:

have high theoretical training and practical skills in the field of their professional activities, know related disciplines;
use modern methods of diagnosis, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and own diagnostic and treatment equipment in the field of their professional activities;
be able to competently evaluate data from special research methods in order to establish a diagnosis;
navigate modern scientific and technical information and use it to solve tactical and strategic issues of professional activity.

Formation of certification commissions

To carry out certification, as before, commissions are created, which, depending on the bodies that form them, can be central, departmental and territorial. The rules for the formation of commissions and their composition are regulated in detail by the Procedure.

The certification commission consists of a coordinating committee (hereinafter referred to as the committee), which carries out the functions of organizing the activities of the certification commission and expert groups by specialty (hereinafter referred to as the expert groups), which review documents and conduct the qualification exam.

The certification commission includes:

leading specialists of organizations engaged in medical and pharmaceutical activities;
representatives of medical professional non-profit organizations, employers;
representatives of the government body or organization forming the certification commission, and other persons.

The personal composition of the certification commission is approved by an administrative act of the government body or organization that created the certification commission.

General management of the activities of the certification commission is carried out by the chairman of the commission, who is also the chairman of the committee. The deputy chairman of the certification commission is recognized as the deputy chairman of the committee and acts as the chairman of the certification commission in his absence.

There remains the position of the executive secretary of the commission, who registers and reviews documents received by the certification commission of specialists who have expressed a desire to undergo certification to obtain a qualification category, for compliance with their requirements for the list and execution of documents, generates materials for sending to expert groups, and prepares materials for meetings and draft committee decisions.

The expert group also has a chairman, deputy chairman and executive secretary.

Let us note that the Procedure defines in sufficient detail the functions of both the committee and the expert groups. For example, the committee coordinates the work of expert groups, determines methods, methods and technologies for assessing the qualifications of specialists, prepares and submits for approval to the body that created the certification commission a draft administrative act on assigning qualification categories to specialists. Expert groups, in turn, review documents submitted by specialists, prepare conclusions on reports, conduct knowledge tests and interviews, and make decisions on assigning qualification categories to specialists.

Based on clause 18 of the Procedure, meetings of the committee are held, if necessary, by decision of its chairman, and meetings of expert groups - at least once a month. A meeting of a committee or expert group is considered valid if more than half of the members of the committee or expert group, respectively, are present.

Decisions of the committee and expert group are made by open voting simple majority votes of members present at the meeting. In case of equality of votes, the vote of the chairman of the meeting of the committee or expert group is decisive ( clause 19 of the Order). Let us note that in the previously applied certification procedure, the presence of at least 2/3 of the commission members was necessary to make a decision, and in the event of a tie vote, the decision was considered made in favor of the specialist.

Decisions of the committee and expert group are documented in protocols, which are signed by all members of the committee and expert group present at the meeting of the committee and expert group, respectively.

Procedure for certification

Specialists who have expressed a desire to undergo certification to obtain a qualification category submit a set of documents to the certification commission. The list of documents included in the qualification documentation has remained virtually unchanged, but there is one exception: now, instead of a qualification sheet, the specialist must submit an attestation sheet.

note

In the previously existing procedure for obtaining qualification categories, it was established that the head of a medical or pharmaceutical organization must create conditions for specialists to obtain qualification categories when interacting with the commission, submitting documentation and notifying the specialist. Now there are no such assistance responsibilities.

An innovation in terms of document submission is the need to submit a duly certified translation into Russian of documents issued on the territory of a foreign state and executed in foreign language.

Also new is the prohibition on participation in the sending of documents by an official of an organization authorized to interact with the organization in which the specialist carries out professional activities with the certification commission. The procedure establishes that only the specialist himself can send documents by mail or submit them in person. In addition, the requirement to bind documents has been eliminated.

Documents must be sent to the government body or organization that created the certification commission by mail or presented in person by a specialist no later than four months before the expiration of the existing qualification category. If this deadline is violated, the qualification exam may be held later than the expiration date of the existing qualification category.

For your information

Clause 16 of the Procedure establishes that certification can be carried out using telecommunication technologies (remote certification) and in the form of an on-site meeting.

The rules and deadlines for certification have been adjusted. In particular, on the basis of clause 22 of the Procedure, documents received by the certification commission are registered by the executive secretary of the committee on the day they are received by the certification commission. Within seven calendar days from the day the documents are registered, they are submitted for review to the chairman of the committee (previously, documentation was registered after a seven-day check of its compliance with the completeness requirements).

If the documents required by the Procedure are missing or they are incorrectly executed, the executive secretary of the committee must send a letter to the specialist about the refusal to accept the documents, explaining the reason for the refusal, also within seven days (previously this period was 14 calendar days). In this case, the specialist can send the documents again. At the same time, he was previously given a month to correct the shortcomings, but now such a period is not set at all.

The chairman of the committee, no later than 14 calendar days from the date of registration of documents, determines the composition of the expert group for certification and sends the specialist’s documents to its chairman (clause 23 of the Procedure). In this case, the expert group must review them no later than 30 calendar days from the date of registration of documents, approve the conclusion on the report and set the date and place for the knowledge test and interview (previously, the period for reviewing documents was 14 calendar days).

Please note that the requirements for the content of the conclusion to the report have changed. In particular, based on clause 24 of the Procedure, it is no longer necessary to take into account:

duration and timing of the last advanced training;
forms of self-education used by a specialist;
correspondence of the amount of theoretical knowledge, actual diagnostic and therapeutic practical skills qualification requirements.

The decision of the expert group to set the date and place for the knowledge test and interview is communicated to the specialist no later than 30 calendar days before the date of the knowledge test and interview, including by posting the relevant information on the official website on the Internet or information stands of the government agency authorities or organizations that created the certification commission.

Test knowledge control and interviews are carried out no later than 70 calendar days from the date of registration of documents.

Based on clause 27 of the Procedure, based on the results of the qualification exam, the expert group can make one of two decisions: to assign or refuse to assign a qualification category to a specialist. Let us recall that previously there were several types of decisions made by the expert group. For example, it was possible to increase the second qualification category by assigning the first, confirm a previously assigned qualification category, remove the first (highest) qualification category and assign a lower category, or deprive a specialist of a qualification category.

The decision to assign or refuse to assign a qualification category to a specialist is made by the expert group no later than 70 calendar days from the date of registration of documents, documented in the minutes of the meeting of the expert group and entered into the specialist’s certification sheet by the executive secretary of the expert group. If a specialist is refused to be assigned a qualification category, the protocol shall indicate the grounds on which the expert group made the appropriate decision. A decision to refuse to assign a qualification category to a specialist can be made on the following grounds:

the presence in the conclusion of the report of a negative assessment of the theoretical knowledge or practical skills of the specialist necessary to obtain the qualification category declared by him;
the presence of an unsatisfactory assessment based on the results of the knowledge control test;
failure of a specialist to attend a knowledge test or interview.

The completed protocol containing the decision to assign or refuse to assign a qualification category to a specialist is sent by the chairman of the expert group to the committee within five calendar days from the date of its signing. The latter, no later than 90 calendar days from the date of registration of documents, prepares and submits for approval an administrative act on assigning a qualification category to a specialist (clause 31 of the Procedure).

note

An administrative act on assigning a qualification category to a specialist must be issued by the government body or organization that created the certification commission no later than 110 calendar days from the date of registration of the documents. Previously, the order to assign a qualification category to a specialist was issued within a month from the moment the commission made the decision.

The specialist must receive, by post or in person, an extract from the administrative act on assigning him a qualification category no later than 120 calendar days from the date of registration of the documents.

Please note that the Order has increased the period for appealing the decision of the certification commission from 30 days to a year. The period for appeal is counted from the date the certification commission makes the decision.

As we can see, the procedure for certification of medical and pharmaceutical workers has undergone significant changes in terms of the timing of certification, the procedure for processing documents and certification results. Moreover, unclear points remain. In particular, it was previously stipulated that the specialist, within a week from the date of issuance of the order to assign him a qualification, would be drawn up and issued a corresponding document. Now the specialist is given only an extract from the order assigning him a qualification category, and not a word is said about the document. We believe that these points will be clarified by the competent authorities during the implementation of the Procedure.

In this regard, the previous similar order No. 808N ceased to be in effect. What has changed and what rules apply today will be discussed in this article.

Certification is carried out to determine the professional qualifications of specialists and their competence to perform job duties. During certification, knowledge of theory and practical skills of specialists are assessed. Based on the results of the exams, they are assigned appropriate categories.

Passing the certification is relevant for specialists with secondary and higher medical and pharmaceutical education who work in their specialties.

Certification is carried out once every 5 years for positions in several categories (second, first, highest).

Moreover, each specialist can apply for an increase in his category before the expiration of the five-year period, but not earlier than 3 years after the last assignment of the qualification level.

To be assigned category I, you must have at least five years of work experience in your specialty;
