The accreditation procedure for social service providers is carried out under the conditions of Law no. 197/2012 regarding ensuring quality in the field of social services, with subsequent amendments, and is provided in G.D. no. 118/2014 for the approval of the Methodological Norms for the application of the provisions of Law no. 197/2012, with subsequent amendments and completions, chapter II, section I-Accreditation of providers. The procedure describes the evaluation and certification activities regarding compliance with specific criteria, which represent the basic requirements that highlight the capacity of providers to establish, manage, and grant social services.
The accreditation of the provider involves the following steps:
a) evaluation of the provider, which consists in verifying the fulfillment of accreditation criteria, based on the data and information included in the application for accreditation of the provider and the supporting documents requested as copies;
b) approval or rejection of the provider's accreditation application;
c) issuing the accreditation certificate or, as the case may be, the notification of rejection of the accreditation application;
d) registration of the accredited provider in the Electronic Single Register of Social Services, established and managed, according to the law, by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection.
The criteria used for accrediting providers are approved by order of the Minister of Labor and Social Protection (Order no. 424/2014 regarding the approval of the specific criteria forming the basis of accreditation of social services providers) and mainly concern the following: a. identification data regarding the provider; b. information regarding knowledge of social services management; c. conditions provided in Law no. 292/2011 with subsequent amendments and completions, mandatory for the establishment, administration, operation, and financing of social services.
The supporting documents differ depending on the status of the provider as a public or private legal person, as well as on their managerial experience in the field of social services, as follows:
A. In the case of public providers, the supporting document is their act of incorporation
B. In the case of private providers, the supporting documents are as follows:
a) for non-governmental organizations: certificate of registration in the Register of Associations and Foundations, statute of the association/foundation;
b) for branches or subsidiaries of international associations and foundations recognized under the applicable legislation: certificate of registration in the register of foreign non-profit legal entities, statute of the branch/subsidiary;
c) for religious denominations recognized by law: the regulatory act of recognition of the denomination, the incorporation document of the unit
d) for individuals authorized according to the law: certificate of registration and finding certificate issued by the National Trade Register Office;
e) for economic operators, in special conditions provided by law: certificate of registration and finding certificate issued by the National Trade Register Office, the act of incorporation or the constitutive act of the economic operator.
C. In addition, public and private providers who, at the date of submitting the application, have not established a social service, are required to also include in the file the commitment to comply with the obligation provided in art. 10 para. (3) of Law no. 197/2012 with subsequent amendments, completed according to the model provided in annex no. 3 to G.D. no. 118/2014 with subsequent amendments.
The provider’s accreditation file, comprising the accreditation application and supporting documents, can be submitted directly to the MMPS registry, sent by post with confirmation of receipt, or electronically in non-editable format. Accreditation files are resolved within max. 30 days from the date of their registration in the special registry for accreditation requests, with the possibility of an extension by max. 15 days, in which case MMPS notifies the provider regarding the processing time of the accreditation application and the reasons for the extension. If supporting documents are missing from the provider's accreditation file, the provider is notified electronically and asked to complete the documentation within 10 working days from the notification. Failure to complete the file within the requested term leads to the suspension of the evaluation, and the service provider is notified electronically to submit a new accreditation application.
Compliance with the criteria is certified by an accreditation certificate issued by MMPS. If failure to meet the criteria provided by law is found, MMPS issues the decision to deny the provider’s accreditation.
Decisions regarding the rejection of the accreditation of the provider, the rejection of service accreditation, the decision to reject the application for classification of the social service into quality classes, as well as decisions regarding the suspension and withdrawal of accreditation can be appealed in accordance with the Administrative Litigation Law no. 554/2004, with subsequent amendments and completions.
