2018: Deputy Labor Minister Alexei Sklyar at TAdviser SummIT - how the sphere of social support will change under the influence of technology
On November 29, 2018, the Alexey Sklyar Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation, at the TAdviser SummIT conference , spoke about the results of coordination and control by the department of activities, and Rostrud(Pension Fund FSS Social Insurance Fund) in the region. information technology He also highlighted plans for 2019.
He began by designating key points regarding the coordination activities of these government agencies. First, it is important to prioritize the formation of their IT tasks, Sklyar noted. He also highlighted the fact that some of the IT projects implemented were not supported by the regulatory framework. One of the tasks of the Ministry of Labor is to ensure this correlation at the stage of implementation and implementation. Other tasks include monitoring and controlling IT projects, eliminating duplication of the functionality of systems and services, ensuring system interaction.
Another important task is to consolidate the functionality and composition of data for one department. For example, regarding electronic work books, information about labor activity is recorded in the Pension Fund system, and it was possible to implement this functionality in the Rostrud system, says Alexey Sklyar.
Speaking about the results of coordination activities, the representative of the Ministry of Labor noted that there is a single plan for the creation and development of state information systems. Also, uniform conditions have been developed for supporting users of the systems - both representatives of legal entities and citizens. SLA in different systems can be different, but the conditions for accepting, processing appeals must be unified in all departments controlled by the Ministry of Labor.
There was an understanding of what needs to be achieved in 2019-2021. These plans are correlated with the government's digital economy plans, the speaker stressed. We are talking, for example, about creating a single entry point and proactively providing services.
Alexey Sklyar outlined the prerequisites for solving the planned tasks. There is, for example, the EGISSO system. It consolidates information on social support measures provided by the relevant authorities, and its main users are suppliers of government agencies of those organizations that prescribe social support measures and provide information. There are questions about the completeness and relevance of the data in this system, since there are no business processes and interaction with citizens in this system yet.
In addition, it is a task in 2020-2021 to make EGISSO a system not from the point of view of information aggregation, but a system with functional processes of organizations controlled by the Ministry of Labor. The appointment of social support measures, accounting and other processes should take place in a single system.
Another block of prerequisites is interaction with citizens in the provision of state and social services. Often, citizens must provide information that already exists in information systems. The same category of citizens comes to two different extrabudgetary funds, often they use different approaches to identify the category to which the citizen belongs, the different requirement for the necessary for provision.
There are very few services that are provided electronically. This is also a prerequisite. And one more - a large number of personal accounts with access to different systems.
Based on all this, the Ministry of Labor sets the task that in 2019 it is necessary to abandon the requirement of citizens for information that is already contained in information systems. For example, from documents required to categorize citizens applying for social support.
Also in 2019, technological measures are planned to reduce the number of documents, to ensure the possibility of obtaining part of public services without a material medium of information. An example is the maternity capital service. Now for this you need to get paper extracts, bring them to the right place. The task is to make it possible to receive such services without paper documents.
Proactivity is also one of the tasks. Based on the life situation that arises in a citizen, a message should be sent to him that he has the right to receive social support measures and what measures he needs to take to receive them. By processing data arrays, you can learn about the onset of such rights among citizens.
Many people do not receive social support measures simply because they do not know about them. For example, large families can receive subsidies for sewing clothes, - Alexey Sklyar gave an example. |
One of the events is to unify the conditions for servicing citizens when they visit offices in the Social Insurance Fund, the Pension Fund and other departments. The task is also to unify the contact center in departments and social security funds, to get rid of many "hotlines."
In addition, it is planned to combine various social services that already exist, such as Social Navigator, Social Calculator and others with access to communications with the Pension Fund, FSS and other institutions of medical and social expertise.
The speaker noted that the events of 2019-2020. do not require a global technical restructuring. But by 2021, more global activities have to be worked out, such as the use of unified registers and directories, the unification of individual systems or data from them.
