Dad, 81 years old, is in the hospital after having his leg amputated. How should I issue him a disability group? I was told that I should get a referral from the family doctor and bypass all the doctors, and he is bedridden.

Any person can issue disability to a pensioner who is bedridden. For this, it is necessary to obtain a power of attorney for the right to represent the interests of the deceased in any state organizations and to sign all the necessary documents. The completed power of attorney must be notarized. It is possible to invite a notary to your home for a fee.
