Организационно-правовые проблемы осуществления медико-социального обеспечения лиц, находящихся в исправительных учреждениях

Abstract

Punishment should not be aimed at humiliating human dignity, but should be aimed at preventing the commission of new offenses and correcting the convicted person. In this context, the question of the need to provide the convicted person with medical care and the realization of his constitutional right to health protection is filled with special meaning. The problems of organizing the examination and re-examination of convicts who are disabled and who are in correctional institutions, providing persons serving sentences with medicines have been identified. These problems are a manifestation of the question of the qualitative implementation by the state of the functions of social protection of persons with disabilities, the provision of medical care to those in need. On the example of the organization of these procedures, it is possible to identify a wide range of organizational shortcomings in the system of execution of punishment, as well as inconsistency of the norms of Russian legislation. It was concluded that it is necessary to reform the organization of medical support for convicts, to increase the transparency of the system for providing the convict with medical care.
