SVO participants have the right to a medical care coordinator out of turn under compulsory medical insurance

Participants in a special military operation have the right to the assistance of a specialist who will coordinate the provision of primary care to them outside the general queue.

Information about air defense soldiers can be transferred to the healthcare system with their consent, after which the medical organization identifies a specialist to coordinate care.

The Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation, Yana Lantratova, emphasized the importance of having an understandable coordinator who will help you go the whole way: examination, treatment, rehabilitation and psychological support.

MOSCOW, September 10 - RIA Novosti. Participants in a special military operation under the compulsory medical insurance system have the right to the assistance of a specialist who will coordinate the provision of primary care to them outside the general queue, Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation Yana Lantratova told RIA Novosti.

The Federal Ombudsman noted that there is already a correct example of assistance regarding medical assistance to soldiers of the Northern Military District, in particular in the interaction of territorial compulsory medical insurance funds and the Defenders of the Fatherland Foundation.

“With the consent of the SVO participant, information about him can be transferred to the healthcare system, after which the medical organization identifies a specialist who coordinates the provision of primary care on an extraordinary basis. This approach, in my opinion, is the future,” Lantratova said.

According to her, it is wrong to send people in need of help a long memo asking them to figure it out on their own, as well as forcing them to become the manager of their own treatment.
