С одним из личных прав человека, - правом на жизнь - неразрывно связано наиболее важное право осужденного на охрану здоровья, закрепленное в ч. 6 ст. 12 Уголовно-исполнительного кодекса Российской Федерации. Данное право выражается в осуществлении в отношении осужденных первичной медико-санитарной помощи либо специализированной медицинской помощи в стационарных либо амбулаторных условиях. Как становится очевидным, наибольшую актуальность данная проблема получает в стенах исправительного учреждения, ведь именно принудительная изоляция негативно сказывается на физическом или психическом здоровье осужденного, в связи с чем в рамках исполнения наказания в виде лишения свободы нужно предусмотреть комплекс мер по реализации данного права. В статье проведен анализ нормативно-правовых актов, которые содержат в себе нормы-принципы и нормы-рекомендации в отрасли прав осужденных к лишению свободы на охрану здоровья и оказание медицинской помощи, и изучено содержание данного права. В проведенном исследовании также рассмотрены основные направления реализации права осужденных на оказание медицинской помощи, а также предложены пути их реформирования. При изучении новых направлений оказания медицинской помощи осужденным авторами выявлено, что многие из этих направлений - перспективные. В конце делается вывод о необходимости реализации указанных авторами рекомендаций в правоприменительной деятельности.The most important right of a convicted person is the right to health, which is inextricably linked to one of the personal human rights, the right to life. Part 6 of article 12 of the Criminal Executive code of the Russian Federation stipulates that prisoners have the right to health protection (receiving primary health care and specialized medical care in outpatient or inpatient conditions, depending on the medical report). As it becomes obvious, the greatest relevance of this problem gets within the walls of the correctional institution, because it is forced isolation that has a negative impact on the physical or mental health of the convict, for this reason, within the framework of the execution of deprivation of liberty, it is necessary to provide a set of measures to implement this right. In this article the analysis of normative legal acts, which contain norms-principles and norms-recommendations in the field of the rights of convicts to imprisonment for health protection and medical care, was carried out, and the very content of this right is studied.The study also examines all the main areas of realization of the right of convicts to medical care, as well as suggests ways to reform it. Despite the rather contradictory nature of trends in the provision of medical care to convicts, several ways to improve it have been outlined in recent years. Some of them were unpromising, while others give us hope that the situation will change for the better with the provision of medical care to convicts. Summing up, we can say that it is necessary to implement these recommendations in law enforcement.

The paper reflects the state of the modern healthcare system and various enforcements of the right to medical care guaranteed by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The right to health, as well as the provision of qualified, free, and timely health care, are among the most important and fundamental human rights. The paper also features some key enforcement problems concerning the right to health protection and medical care, guaranteed by Article 41 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, e.g. a lack of medical personnel, untimely provision of the first aid, and insufficient financing in the health care system. The article also considers the causes and consequences of "staff shortages" in Russian hospitals, employment of medical graduates, and financial support of young medical specialists. The author analyzes the equipment status of medical organizations in 2018 and 2016, voices the problem of optimization in healthcare institutions by reducing the inpatient level and expanding outpatient clinics, and offers statistics of complaints to the Department of Public Health on quality and timeliness of medical care. The author believes that the enforcement of the right of citizens guaranteed by Article 41 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation can be characterized as very low, which indicates the pretentiousness of the law.


The article discusses the issues of constitutional-law and special legal regulation of the human right to health and affordable and quality medical care. It is shown how this right is stipulated by constitutions and charters of subjects of the Russian Federation in accordance with the Constitution of Russia. Whereas the Constitution providing the right to health does not prescribe that medical care should be «affordable» and «quality», the author believes that these attributes are intrinsic to medical care because it is only affordable and quality medical care that is a guarantee of realization of the right to health. Health is considered by the author as a prerequisite of using other rights and freedoms. Using the comparative-law methodology, the author analyzes constitutions and charters of constituent entities of the RF and concludes that less than a half of them have provisions concerning the right to health protection and medical care. At the same time, under Constitution protection of human rights shall be within the joint jurisdiction of the Russian Federation and constituent units. It is emphasized that the special role in protection of the human right to health on the sub-federal level belongs to regional constitutional (charter) courts, some examples from their practice are given.

The content of the right to health protection and medical care according to Ukrainian legislation is analyzed in the article as well as peculiarities of its realisation in the context of the pandemic COVID-19. It examines also the correlation between the notion “health protection” and “medical care”. On the basis of this correlation, the conclusion is made that the right to health protection is broader and includes, but is not limited to, the right to medical care. Some international standards in the sphere of health protection, which constitute the basis of Ukrainian legislation in this area, are analyzed. The conclusion is made that Ukraine should take into account such standards while limiting human rights, in particular, the right to health protection and medical care in the context of the pandemic COVID-19. It is mentioned that the significant problem remains the legal regulation of quality control of medical care, the creation of organizational technologies with a clear division of control functions between the various actors in the health care system, which is extremely important in terms of the pandemic. The attention is also paid to the personal data protection issue in the sphere of health care. The conclusion is drawn that there should be mechanisms for reporting and protecting against abuse while collecting personal data, and people should be able to challenge any COVID-19-related measures for the collection, aggregation, storage and further use of their data.

A legal entity as a union recognized in law and absent as an independent entity outside the law, exists and carries out its activities through the governing bodies whose composition and competence are always predetermined by the norms of positive law. Undoubtedly, the rights of the governing bodies of a legal entity, as well as the duties of the head of the organization, must be strictly predetermined and have limits defined by law. Failure of this rule would mean the possibility of abuse of the right by the governing bodies of legal entities, their release from the obligation to lead the organization in good faith and reasonably, evasion from the fulfillment of obligations assumed by the legal entity through the sole executive body or another governing body of the organization. In order to prevent harm to the organization and third parties, the governing bodies of the legal entity, the legislator set certain rules for the activities of the governing bodies of the legal entity, as well as the grounds for applying measures of responsibility for violating such rules. The responsibility of the head includes the recovery of damages caused by his fault to a legal entity. The purpose of the study is to analyze the grounds and conditions for recovery of damages caused by the head of the organization in the legislation of the Russian Federation and arbitration practice. The objectives of the study are to determine the grounds for liability of the head of a legal entity in the form of damages, show the genesis of the formation of Russian legislation and the practice of its use by courts on recovering losses of a legal entity from the head of an organization, identify criteria for determining the presence of both good faith and reasonableness in the behavior of managers of legal entities, brought to responsibility in the form of the obligation to pay damages to the organization they lead. In carrying out the study, such methods were used as: general scientific - analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, historical method; private-scientific: formal-legal, comparative-legal, allowing to consider the issues of bringing to responsibility in the form of recovery of damages of the head of a legal entity; Formal legal method for determining the content of abstract categories - reasonableness, good faith, permissible behavior, method of system-structural analysis - to study the possibility of applying damages as a form of responsibility for the guilty behavior of a special entity - the head of a legal entity The result of the study is the establishment of the grounds and conditions for applying to the head (former head) of a legal entity responsibility in the form of recovery of damages caused to the organization managed by it, in the legislation of the Russian Federation and judicial practice. The findings and results of the study can be used for further research and as educational material, in legislative work and in law enforcement practice.

In confronting the insalubrious ramifications of globalization, human rights scholars and activists have argued for greater national and international responsibility pursuant to the human right to health. Codified seminally in Article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), the right to health proclaims that states bear an obligation to realize the “highest attainable standard” of health for all. However, in pressing for the highest attainable standard for each individual, the right to health has been ineffective in compelling states to address burgeoning inequalities in underlying determinants of health, focusing on individual medical treatments at the expense of public health systems. This article contends that the paradigm of individual health, focused on a right to individual medical care, is incapable of responding to health inequities in a globalized world and thereby hampers efforts to operationalize health rights through public health systems. While the right to health has evolved in international discourse over time, this evolution of the individual right to health cannot address the harmful societal ramifications of economic globalization. Rather than relying solely upon an individual right to medical care, envisioning a collective right to public health – a right applied at the societal level to address underlying determinants of health – would alleviate many of the injurious health inequities of globalization.
