Challenging an MSEK Conclusion

Who inspects the work of medical-social expertise establishments?

State control is exercised by the agency — a legal entity of public law created by the Government of Georgia. The agency selectively and/or as needed checks the correctness of the conclusions issued by an establishment, and conducts a selective inspection once a year.

What happens to a conclusion when the agency has a justified doubt?

Where a justified doubt exists, the agency is authorized to raise before the court the question of canceling an incorrectly issued expert conclusion, and until the court issues its final decision the operation of the expert conclusion is suspended.

Is a repeated examination possible?

Yes — taking the violation into account, the agency is authorized to issue a decision on the conduct of a repeated examination by the same or by another establishment, and after the completion of the inspection it is obliged to draw up an act of inspection.

To whom are the results of the examination communicated?

An extract from the act of examination is sent to the employer or to the court on whose application the injured person underwent the examination. The certificate of the results of the examination is given to the injured person or to the representative by hand.

Who bears professional liability?

The agency raises before the authorized organ the question of the professional liability of the members of the establishment. The concrete forms and measures of liability are determined by other legal acts — they are not detailed in the provisions of this law.

Who exercises state control over medical-social expertise

To ensure the measures provided for by law in the sphere of medical-social expertise, the Government of Georgia creates a legal entity of public law — the agency — which carries out its activity within the framework of the powers conferred on it by the law, by its statute and by other legal acts. The statute of the agency is approved, and the person authorized to represent it is appointed, by the Minister of Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories, Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia, while state control over the agency's activity is exercised by the corresponding ministry.

It is precisely this agency that exercises state control over the activity of the establishments conducting the expertise and, selectively and/or as needed, checks the correctness of the conclusions issued by an establishment. This means that the correctness of your conclusion is monitored by the state even independently — control is not dependent solely on your complaint. The boundaries of agency action are determined by the law, its statute and other legal acts.
