Abstract

The Constitution of the Russian Federation proclaimed: “Everyone has the right to protection of health and medical care” (Article 41). The main law of the country declared free medical care in state and municipal health care institutions. However, the right of citizens to free medical care, especially for the treatment of cardiovascular and other complex diseases, is not fully realized due to limited quotas. Based on arguments and facts, the author shows not only the positive aspects of healthcare in modern Russia, but also reveals the shortcomings in the field of protecting the health of ordinary citizens. In the conditions of an acute deficit of budget funds allocated by the state for this most important area of social policy, ensuring guaranteed rights of the population in the field of healthcare involves the selection of priorities, determination and financing of the most effective forms of medical care. According to the author, a priority national project “Healthcare” can make a significant contribution to solving urgent problems, the implementation of which should be completed by 2024 in accordance with the May (2018) decree of the President of Russia.
