02.09.2021 Information

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

to the preparation of a certification report for the assignment of a qualification category in diagnostic specialties

(radiology, ultrasound diagnostics, endoscopy, functional diagnostics, clinical laboratory diagnostics, bacteriology,

laboratory genetics, pathological anatomy, forensic medical examination)

A doctor's attestation report on the work done is a scientific and practical work in which a doctor analyzes the results of his professional practice and service activity over the past three years on all issues of his specialty.

1. Execution of the attestation report

1.1. General requirements (in accordance with GOST 7.32–91 and international standard ISO 5966–82): The attestation report should reflect as much as possible the author's own contribution to the activities of a medical organization. The report should be printed on one side of a standard A4 sheet of white paper, Times New Roman font, font size 12, line spacing - 1.5. The pages of the attestation report must have the following margins: left - at least 30 mm, right - at least 10 mm, top - at least 15 mm, bottom - at least 20 mm; paragraph indentation - 1-1.5 cm. The main text of the work should be aligned “in width”. The volume of the attestation report for the highest qualification category should be on average 30-35 sheets, for the first and second categories - 20-25 sheets, including printed text, tables, figures. Found errors and misprints should be corrected by shading with white paint (corrector) and then entering the corrections in black ink.


1.2. The title page of the doctor's attestation report: Above right - a statement signed by the head of the medical institution, certified by the round seal of the medical institution in which the doctor works (or worked). In the center - the title: “Report on work for such and such years (indicate the reporting period for doctors - 3 years), full name. doctor (write in full), position, in accordance with the entry in the work book, full name of the institution in accordance with the registered Charter, requested category, specialty (in accordance with the current nomenclature of specialties). At the bottom of the sheet - the name of the settlement, the year of work.

1.3. The second page of the doctor's attestation report: The second page of the attestation report must contain a table of contents indicating the page numbers of the main sections of the attestation work. The strict style of the table of contents should be observed, and the number “1” is never put on the title page, but it is taken into account that the next page has the number “2”. The absence of a table of contents will indicate a careless and formal design of the work.

1.4. Headers: Headings in the report are highlighted in a richer and larger font, never underlined or ending with a period. Headings are not subject to hyphenation. There should be a space of at least 6-12 points between the heading and the text. Higher-level headings are centered, lower-level headings are left-aligned. It is possible to highlight high-level headings in capital letters or special effects (shadow, bulge). It is advisable to number the headings and start the chapter on a new page. Headings are numbered in Arabic numerals, nested subheadings - separated by a period ("1", "1.1", "2.3.1", etc.).

1.5. Registration of tables, figures, graphs: The doctor's attestation report must include such elements of non-textual information as pictures, graphs, tables. For all these types of additional information, continuous numbering is applied throughout the work. For example, if there are two charts in the first chapter, then the first chart in the next chapter will have a third number, not the first one. All these elements of non-textual information are numbered if the corresponding element occurs more than once in the work. For example, if there is only one table in the work, then it is not numbered and the designation "Table 1" is not written above it. Do not overload your work with unnecessary tables and diagrams. Available tables and diagrams should be accompanied by comments and analytical explanations of the author, revealing the essence of the dynamics of various numbers.

1.5.1. Table decoration. The table is denoted by the word “Table” and a number written in Arabic numerals in the upper right corner (the “No.” sign is not indicated). This should be followed by a centered table heading. Tables, depending on their size, are placed after the text in which they are mentioned, or on the next page. The reference to the table in the text is drawn up as follows: see table. 1. If there is only one table in the work, then the word "table" is not abbreviated: see the table. Usually at the first link the word "see" not written: “From table. 1 shows that .... ". For further references, mark in parentheses: (see table. 1). When using the tables, consider the following recommendations: If possible, you should not use the column "number in order" ("p / p"), ​​since in most cases it is not needed. Numbers are right-justified (for easier comparison), text left-aligned, and heading text left-aligned or centered. All table cells are vertically aligned in the middle. Duplicate items, for example, a percentage symbol ("%"), appear in the column or row header. One repeated word in the table is abbreviated with quotation marks, two or more - with the phrase “the same”. There should be no empty cells in the table. If you do not have the necessary data at your disposal, then it is written like this - "no information." If the table does not fit on one page and it has to be moved to the next, then on the new page they write the words "table continuation" and indicate its serial number, then repeat the cells containing the column headings and then the table continuation follows. Footnotes to the text or numbers in the table are made out only with asterisks (so that there is no confusion with the exponent) and are printed immediately below the table.


1.5.2. Registration of drawings and photographs: The name is written under the picture, which is preceded by the abbreviation "pic." and a sequential number in a number written in Arabic numerals (the “No.” sign is not indicated). All of this designation is centered below the figure. Photographs of macro or micropreparations, prints of X-rays and ultrasound images, copies of ECG and other materials must be of sufficient quality.

1.5.3. Application design: Applications, unlike other types of additional information, are located outside the text of the attestation report. Applications can include text, tables, pictures, photographs, drawings. All types of additional information in the appendices are numbered in the same way as in the main part of the work. Each application must start on a new page. Applications are designated by the word "APPENDIX", dialed in capital letters and a sequential number (Arabic numerals) in the upper right corner (without the "No." sign). This is followed by the centered title of the application.

2. Introduction. General characteristics of the medical organization in which the author directly works. General characteristics of the department in which the author directly works.

c) Human resources: indicate the staffing level according to the staffing table, certification and categorization of both medical and nursing staff, the author's proposals for strengthening and developing human resources.

G) Practical activities... One of the main sections of the work. Statistical data must be presented in accordance with the forms of the Federal Statistical Observation. More detailed statistics are allowed, but within reason. A comparative report of the department for the last three calendar years according to the Federal Statistical Survey must be submitted. Separately, specific indicators of the department's work should be reflected in comparison with republican, Russian and, if possible, world data. It is necessary to indicate the average annual workload for personnel and the average annual workload for a specific type of equipment. Personal assessment by the author of the efficiency of the department is encouraged.

2.3. Analysis of the author's own activities over the past three years... The key point of the certification work. In this section, the author must isolate his personal contribution from the total volume of the department's work. The author must specifically indicate the volume of work performed with detailing by type of research for the last three years, as detailed as possible, list what specific research methods he owns. The author must support his skills and abilities with a specific volume of research on various organs and systems. It is necessary to indicate which basic techniques you do not know, but would like to master in the short term and how.

2.4. Analysis of verification of own research: Comparison of diagnoses and conclusions for the last three years with the data of pathological examination of biopsy, surgical material or autopsy is carried out, analysis of the revealed inconsistencies and discrepancies, the reasons for their occurrence. In case of impossibility of pathomorphological verification, clinical data in dynamics, data of other research methods should be provided.

2.5. The most complex, rare clinical examples and observations: It is necessary to cite 2-3 of the most significant clinical observations, in which the author, as a specialist, played a key role in making the correct final clinical diagnosis. Each clinical example should be supported in a concise form by clinical, laboratory data, the results of pathomorphological and other research methods. Imprints of objective instrumental research methods (radiographs, ultrasound, ECG and other materials, macro - micrographs) should be of sufficient quality. Clinical examples should not be cluttered with prints of all types of research.

2.6. Abstract part of the work... This section should not exceed 5 typewritten pages. The desirable context for this section is to pose a specific problem. For example: Possibilities of X-ray computed tomography in differential diagnosis of diseases of the laryngopharynx at the present stage: accumulated experience, problems and development prospects. In this section, we can restrict ourselves to some very narrow issues of diagnosing a specific disease, which have not yet been properly resolved at the present stage. In this section, you can cite one of the published works of the author himself, including in co-authorship. The abstract part of the work should not be devoted to the description of any well-known, generally accepted research methods or the description of the technical parameters of any medical device.

2.7. Conclusion... In a short, arbitrary form, the author gives reasoning about the practical activities of the department, about his own personal contribution to the work of the department, about the reasons that led to diagnostic defects and measures to eliminate them in the future.

2.8. conclusions... Conclusions should logically follow from the material presented. The clear wording and clear context of the conclusions are indicative of the analytical ability of the author of the work.

On August 4, 2013, the Order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation of April 23, 2013 No. 240n "On the procedure and timing of certification for obtaining a qualification category" (hereinafter referred to as the Procedure) came into effect. In this regard, the Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation of 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 medical and pharmaceutical workers to pass certification. This procedure applies to specialists with secondary medical and pharmaceutical education, specialists with higher professional education, carrying out 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, for three qualification categories (second, first and highest) once every five years. In this case, the qualification category assigned to the employee is also valid for five years from the date of the issuance of the corresponding administrative act. Specialists can apply for the assignment of a higher qualification category before the expiration of the named period, but not earlier than three years from the date of the qualification category assignment.

The procedure has adjusted the requirements for work experience to obtain qualification categories. Work experience in the specialty now does not depend on the education received by the employee. So, to obtain the second qualification category, you need at least three years of work experience in the specialty (in position), to obtain the first category - at least five years of experience, the highest category - at least seven years of experience.

For comparison, let's say: before, in order to obtain 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 the length of service, the Procedure establishes requirements for theoretical knowledge and practical skills of specialists. In particular, based on NS. 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, possess the skills of analyzing quantitative and qualitative performance indicators, drawing up 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;
  • to use modern methods of diagnosis, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and to own medical and diagnostic equipment in the field of his professional activities;
  • be able to competently analyze the indicators of professional activity and navigate in modern scientific and technical information;
  • participate in solving tactical issues of organizing professional activities.
note

To obtain the highest qualification category, on the basis of clause 10 of the Procedure, a specialist must:

  • have high theoretical training and practical skills in the field of professional activities carried out by him, know related disciplines;
  • to use modern methods of diagnosis, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and to own medical and diagnostic equipment in the field of his professional activities;
  • be able to evaluate the data of special research methods in a qualified manner 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 coordination committee (hereinafter referred to as the committee) that carries out the functions of organizing the activities of the certification commission and expert groups by specialties (hereinafter referred to as expert groups), which review documents and conduct a qualification exam.

The attestation commission includes:

  • leading specialists of organizations engaged in medical and pharmaceutical activities;
  • representatives of medical professional non-profit organizations, employers;
  • representatives of the public authority or organization that form the certification commission, and other persons.
The personal composition of the attestation commission is approved by an administrative act of the state authority or organization that created the attestation commission.

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

There is also the position of the executive secretary of the commission, who registers and considers documents submitted to the certification commission by 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, forms materials for sending to expert groups, prepares materials for meetings and draft committee decisions.

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

Note that the Procedure defines in some detail the functions of both the committee and the expert groups. For example, the committee coordinates the work of expert groups, determines the 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 regulatory act on assigning qualification categories to specialists. Expert groups, in turn, consider the documents submitted by specialists, prepare conclusions on reports, conduct test control of knowledge and interviews, make decisions on the issues of assigning qualification categories to specialists.

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

The decisions of the committee and the expert group are made by an open vote by a simple majority of votes of the members present at the meeting. In case of equality of votes, the vote of the chairperson of the meeting of the committee or expert group is decisive ( p. 19 of the Procedure). It should be noted that in the previous certification procedure for making a decision, it was necessary to have at least 2/3 of the members of the commission, and in the event of an equality of votes, the decision was considered to be in favor of the specialist.

The decisions of the committee and the expert group are formalized in protocols, which are signed by all members of the committee and the expert group who attended the meeting of the committee and the expert group, respectively.

Certification procedure

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 practically not changed, but there is one exception: now, instead of a qualification sheet, a specialist must submit an attestation sheet.

note

In the previous 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 a specialist. Now there are no such obligations for assistance.

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

Also new is the prohibition of participation in the submission of documents by an official of the 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 by mail or submit documents in person. In addition, the requirement for stitching documents has been eliminated.

The documents must be sent to the address of the state authority or the organization that created the certification commission by mail or submitted personally by a specialist no later than four months before the expiration of the existing qualification category. If this period is violated, the qualification examination 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 off-site meeting.

The procedure has adjusted the rules and timing of certification. 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 date of registration of documents, they are submitted for consideration to the chairman of the committee (previously, the documentation was registered after a seven-day check of its compliance with the completeness requirements).

If the documents provided for by the Procedure are absent or they are incorrectly executed, the executive secretary of the committee must send the specialist a letter of refusal to accept 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 shortcomings, but now such a period has not been 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 attestation and sends the specialist's documents to the chairman (clause 23 of the Procedure). In this case, the expert group must consider them no later than 30 calendar days from the date of registration of documents, approve the conclusion on the report and appoint a date and place for the test control of knowledge and interviews (previously, the period for consideration of documents was 14 calendar days).

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

  • the duration and timing of the last professional development;
  • forms of self-education used by a specialist;
  • correspondence of the amount of theoretical knowledge, actual diagnostic and therapeutic practical skills to qualification requirements.
The decision of the expert group on the appointment of the date and place of the test control of knowledge and the interview is communicated to the specialist no later than 30 calendar days before the date of the test control of knowledge and the interview, including by posting the relevant information on the official website on the Internet or information stands of the state body. authorities or organizations that have created an attestation commission.

Test control of knowledge 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 earlier there were several types of decisions made by the expert group. For example, it was possible to upgrade the second qualification category with the assignment of the first, confirm the previously assigned qualification category, remove the first (highest) qualification category with the assignment of a lower category, or deprive a specialist of the qualification category.

The decision on the assignment or refusal 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, drawn up by the minutes of the meeting of the expert group and entered in the specialist's certification sheet by the executive secretary of the expert group. If a specialist is denied the assignment of a qualification category to a specialist, the protocol shall indicate the grounds on which the expert group made the appropriate decision. And the 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 a specialist necessary to obtain the qualification category declared by him;
  • the presence of an unsatisfactory mark based on the results of the test control of knowledge;
  • failure of a specialist to pass a test control of knowledge or an interview.
A completed protocol containing a decision on the assignment or refusal 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 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 ordering act on the assignment of a qualification category to a specialist must be issued by a public authority or an organization that created an attestation commission no later than 110 calendar days from the date of registration of documents. Previously, an order on assigning a qualification category to a specialist was issued within a month from the moment the commission made a decision.

The specialist, on the other hand, must receive, by mail or in his hands, an extract from the administrative act on the assignment of a qualification category to him no later than 120 calendar days from the date of registration of documents.

Note that the Procedure has increased the period for appealing the decision of the attestation commission from 30 days to a year. The period for appeal is counted from the date of the decision by the certification commission.

As you 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, there are unclear points. In particular, it was previously envisaged that a specialist, within a week from the date of the issuance of the order on awarding him a qualification, was drawn up and issued an appropriate document. Now the specialist is given only an extract from the order on 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 in the course of the Procedure.
