RESUMO
The purpose of this work is to consider the problems arising from the improper provision of medical services and bringing to civil and criminal liability for these actions of medical organizations and medical workers. The author investigates the issues of bringing to responsibility for violations related to improper provision of medical care in medical organizations of the healthcare system of the Russian Federation. Russian legislation enshrines the right of a patient to complain about the improper provision of medical services, both when applying to a state medical organization and when receiving medical care in private structures of the healthcare system. The problem of bringing to civil and criminal liability for improper provision of medical care in Russian healthcare has been standing for quite a long time, nevertheless, today it is coming to the fore, despite attempts to improve the legislative regulation of this issue. In conclusion, authors conclude that in order to achieve high-quality medical services, it is necessary not only to comply with the requirements for the contractor, provided by licensing of medical activities and accreditation of medical specialists, but also to establish requirements for the activities of medical workers themselves. Thus, the provision of medical services should be considered improper if they are provided in violation of the requirements imposed on the subject and are provided in an improper way, i.e. in violation of the requirements that must be met by medical workers.
