Abstract

On December 29, 2018, the “Interim Instruction for the organization of medical examination, preventive and curative and health-improving measures, and clinical observation of the military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation” was approved and entered into force. With this instruction, changes were made to the organization and procedure for conducting an in-depth medical examination of the military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. An in-depth medical examination of conscripted military personnel, as well as contracted military personnel (up to the unit commander and their peers), is carried out in medical companies (points) of military units, on the basis of outpatient departments (polyclinics) of medical military units (military medical organizations). The unit commander is responsible for providing the unit personnel for an in-depth (control) medical examination. A doctor of a military medical unit, unit or organization is responsible for the completeness and quality of an in-depth (control) medical examination of a soldier, as well as the preventive and therapeutic measures prescribed by him. Thus, the data presented allow us to conclude that the conduct of UMO in accordance with the requirements of the “Interim Instructions for the organization of medical examination, preventive and therapeutic measures, clinical follow-up of military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation” allows us to give a more objective assessment of the state of health and identify a number of diseases in the early stages and take measures to prevent and treat them.
