Medical support for combatants: what is provided


The status of a participant in hostilities involves not only recognition and benefits, but also access to medical support.
It is about the opportunity to receive help free of charge or on preferential terms in state health care institutions.
Among the main ones:
— free medical care
— provision of medicines prescribed by a doctor
— the right to undergo examinations and treatment in state medical institutions
— the possibility sanatorium-resort treatment
This is important, because after completing tasks, the body needs attention and recovery, and the state provides appropriate mechanisms for this.
It should be noted separately that medical support is not a one-time help, but a systemic opportunity to seek treatment and prevention as needed.
In the following materials, we will take a closer look at how these opportunities work and how to use them.
