Military boarding houses on the Black Sea. Sanatoriums of the Russian Ministry of Defense for military pensioners: affordable recreation. Procedure for obtaining a voucher

All military personnel, regardless of rank and position, are legally given the opportunity to receive a ticket to any sanatorium and resort institution of the Ministry of Defense. But after the monetization of benefits, this type of recreational recreation for most of them acquired full value.

Today, getting a free ticket to a departmental sanatorium for active military personnel, unfortunately, means only one thing - getting there through a referral by decision of the military medical commission (MMC) “to continue hospital treatment.” The IHC makes this decision after inpatient treatment of serious illnesses, for example, myocardial infarction. And this is the only free option. For a serviceman, but not for his family, who can go to the sanatorium along with the full price in agreement with the military health resort.

Another option - on personal initiative, on a voucher, on the basis of a sanatorium-resort card in the absence of contraindications - is paid. For active military personnel, payment is full, 100%. Thus, this can probably only be beneficial for retired officers, midshipmen and warrant officers (25% of the full cost), and members of their families, since only they retained the right to preferential payment for sanatorium treatment. The total cost of staying in sanatoriums is high and does not tolerate competition with market prices of private holiday homes in the resort area. This can also be beneficial for civilian personnel of the RF Ministry of Defense, who also receive preferential vouchers (for 30% of the cost) “through the trade union.” For members of the Trade Union of Workers and Employees of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, about five percent of the total number of places in sanatoriums of the Ministry of Defense are allocated annually. But for those who are still “in the ranks”, prices remain “biting”.

Mechanisms for obtaining travel vouchers for different groups of citizens

Today, the Department of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation is responsible for sanatorium and resort provision. The legal procedure for obtaining a voucher for treatment in institutions of the Ministry of Defense for any applicant is subject to a single algorithm, which can be described as a 3-step instruction.

Step 1. Medical examination at the place of residence.

Former and current military personnel are in military medical institutions.
Civilians - in medical institutions of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation.
A sanatorium-resort card is issued in form N 072/u-04, or a certificate of health when sent to a rest home.
For children - according to form N 076/u-04.

Step 2. Submitting an Application

To the Department of Sanatorium and Resort Support of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, or a sanatorium and resort organization (30 days before arrival at the sanatorium):

• military personnel serving under contract and members of their families;
• military personnel undergoing military service upon conscription;
• family members of retired military personnel (officers);
• cadets;
• civilian personnel of the Armed Forces;

To the Department of Sanatorium and Resort Support of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, or a sanatorium and resort organization (60 days before arrival at the sanatorium):

• officers (with length of service in preferential terms of more than 25, regardless of the reason for dismissal, or 20 years + general education, health status, age limit), members of their families. Warrant officers and midshipmen discharged from military service (with more than 20 years of service, discharged due to general education, age limit, health status);
• family members of military personnel who have lost their breadwinner;
• spouses and parents of military personnel who died in the line of duty;
• parents of dead or deceased officers;
• widows (widowers) of killed or deceased military personnel - until remarriage;
• Heroes from among military personnel and pensioners of the Ministry of Defense and members of their families;
• spouses and parents of deceased or deceased Heroes;

The already received sanatorium-resort card is attached to the Application.
You can apply directly or send an Application by mail, fax or electronically. Moreover, applications submitted in the form of an electronic document are considered on a general basis, within 10 days.
There is also an electronic booking mechanism. A personalized accounting system makes the procedure for distributing vouchers transparent.
Statement: Appendix 1

Step 3. Receiving a Notification of a voucher to a sanatorium-resort institution

The notification is sent to the email address specified earlier in the Application,
Notice: Appendix 2
That's all! Registration, payment and issuance of the Voucher are carried out already at the sanatorium - on the day of admission, upon presentation of the Notification.

Civilian personnel of the RF Ministry of Defense prepare documents for obtaining a voucher to a military sanatorium in the manner determined by the agreement between the trade unions of the Civil Defense and the Ministry of Defense. In any case, you will have to start with a medical examination and a sincere conversation with the chairman of the trade union committee.

For military personnel who are hospitalized and want to continue rehabilitation free of charge in a sanatorium-resort setting after treatment, it is a good idea to make friends with the attending physician. If there are indications and a positive decision by the IHC, all relevant documents will be properly processed by the medical institution where the treatment was carried out.

Necessary documents to be submitted to the sanatorium upon arrival

First of all, to issue a Voucher, the previously received Notification must be presented.
In addition to this, patients transferred to sanatoriums to continue hospital treatment must also have in their hands:

1. passport (identity card or military ID)
2. conclusion of the military medical commission of the hospital
3. extract from the medical history
4. food certificate (for military personnel undergoing military service upon conscription)

All other potential patients of the sanatorium, along with the notification of the voucher, must present:

• Identity document (passport, birth certificate, military ID)
• Sanatorium and resort card in form N 072/u (for children - sanatorium and resort card in form N 076/u)

Officers dismissed from military service:

• pensioner's ID
• compulsory health insurance policy

If a family member of a military serviceman or a pensioner of the Ministry of Defense arrived at the sanatorium-resort institution together with him and is included in his identity card, then presenting a certificate of relationship is not required.
When you take a child who is not yours with you, you must have the notarized consent of his parents.
If the patient requires individual care, then his accompanying person is also provided with a place to sleep and food. More information about documents for various contingents

Military sanatoriums are a way to relax in Russia that is 3 times cheaper for discounted contingents.

Obviously, it is not so difficult to get a ticket to a military sanatorium. But the prices of holidays in the sanatoriums of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for the non-discounted contingent are not competitive with private holiday homes in resort areas.
The website of the Ministry of Defense provides approximate calculations of the cost of staying in a departmental sanatorium for a family of three military personnel. In one case, a three-week joint vacation for a family of 3 people will cost 50,041.45 rubles, in the other - 124,233 rubles (excluding travel costs). If the institution is the same, the family composition is similar and the prices for vouchers are the same (48,300 for parents, and 27,633 rubles for a child), then what’s the “catch”?
In the first case, this is a settlement for the family of an officer dismissed from service due to
having reached the age limit, who enjoys the preferential right to pay only a quarter of the cost of the trip for a former military personnel and only half for members of his family:

Pensioner of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation (48,300 rubles * 25%) + Wife (48,300 rubles * 50%) + Child (27,633 rubles * 50%) = 50,041.45 rubles.

In the second example, the family of a soldier serving under a contract. In accordance with the law, payment for a stay at the resort for all its members is made in full (however, according to information on the websites of Sochi military health resorts, a small discount is still given for “our own” ones - about 10-20%). And after all, even if they decide to shorten their “journey to the warm sea” to two weeks, they will still have to pay more than the family of a military pensioner for a full period of recovery:

Soldier with wife and child

(48,300 rubles * 2 + 27,633 rubles)/21 * 14 (days) = 82,822.

Conclusion: Using military resort organizations for recreation and treatment is beneficial for the following groups:

• Officers dismissed from military service with 20 years of service (preferential), dismissed due to general medical conditions, health conditions, or age limits. Or 25 years of service, regardless of the reason for dismissal ;
• Warrant officers and midshipmen dismissed from military service with 20 years of service, dismissed due to general medical conditions, health conditions, or the age limit for service ;
• Family members of the officers mentioned in the first paragraph. As well as all persons dependent on him and living with him. (The right is retained even after the death of a reserve officer for persons who enjoyed this right during his lifetime);
• Widows and widowers of the officers mentioned in the first paragraph enjoy the right until remarriage;
• Spouses and parents of those killed on the Kursk nuclear submarine, who died in the North Caucasus after August 1999, in connection with the performance of official duties;
• Heroes of the Russian Federation, Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of Socialist Labor, full holders of the Orders of Glory and Labor Glory from among military personnel and pensioners of the Ministry of Defense;
• family members (spouses, parents, children under the age of 18 and children under the age of 23 studying full-time in educational institutions) of Heroes of the Russian Federation, Heroes of the Soviet Union, full holders of the Order of Glory from among military personnel and pensioners of the Ministry of Defense;
• spouses and parents of deceased (deceased) Heroes of the Russian Federation, Heroes of the Soviet Union, full holders of the Order of Glory from among military personnel and pensioners of the Ministry of Defense;
• persons of civilian personnel of the Armed Forces (if an industry agreement between trade unions of civilian personnel of the Armed Forces and the Ministry of Defense establishes such obligations for the corresponding period in the manner and on the terms determined by this agreement).

Discussion: 8 comments

Why is it interesting in order 333 p.b where it is stated that there is NO reference to a preferential voucher for family members of reserve officers (military pensioners), wives and children under 23 years of age studying full-time, except for children studying at higher military educational institutions! My cadet son, who came with me as a member of the family of a military pensioner, was accepted at the commercial price of the sanatorium!

Answer

1. Active military personnel pay full price at resorts. I think this is how the sanatorium interprets the law. However, your son is also a full-time student (but it is not a fact that cadets fall into this category). An interesting question for the court, but it’s not a fact that you will win.

   Answer

I sent an application to the Saki sanatorium on November 1, 2017 at 00 hours 15 minutes, a month later the answer came - a lot of applications, a LIMITED number of PREFERENTIAL vouchers, the order of different groups of vacationers (I am the widow of a colonel), etc. They suggested January, February, December 2018. I am sure that with commercial vouchers there is complete order, any time, any comfort, any treatment. We are entitled to 3 free procedures - walks around the territory, gymnastics in the room, air baths on a bench. Extremely valuable service...! Why do the Ministry of Defense maintain these sanatoriums? Let them switch to full commerce! But who will go there for these prices? You interpret everything correctly, but I am the widow of a general, so I sent an application to the Saki military sanatorium. Pirogov, they will only consider it, but I sent it on October 12, I received a refusal, now I’ll try to send it on November 1, and you write 30 days before arrival, this is definitely a complete failure.

Answer

1. Everything is stated correctly, BUT you must send documents to receive a voucher for 2018 on November 1, 2017. I sent to the Aurora sanatorium on November 2, 2016 for September 1, 2017 and received an answer in December 2016 that the earliest check-in time was October 24, 2017, I called the sanatorium to find out how this happened? the answer was simple: “in one day on November 1, two thousand applications were received!! If you don’t like the date, you can refuse.” We arrived two days ago, yesterday we managed to swim in the sea, water + 16, air +25. Today it started to rain, +18, so we will breathe sea air for 46 thousand rubles for two) by the way, the promised pool with sea water is still under repair)) all procedures until 12:00)) Greetings from Khosta!!

   Answer

The author described everything well, but forgot to indicate a small detail (the most important) - booking tours for 2018 begins on November 1, 2017. “Submitting an application 30 days before arrival at the sanatorium” is a clear failure.

Answer

The military profession requires enormous psychological and physical stress. This leads to a rapid decrease in the functional capabilities of the body. To restore health, military sanatoriums of the Russian Ministry of Defense are operating in our country in 2018.

The state has always valued the military’s ability to fully exert its forces and their readiness for various non-standard situations to maintain the country’s defense capability. Therefore, it is no coincidence that in our country the military has some advantages for their hard work:

• sufficient pension provision;
• early retirement;
• benefits in public transport;
• resort service.

Material base for the treatment of military personnel

Resort and sanatorium provision for current and former military personnel is regulated by many legislative acts. For example, document No. 76 dated May 27, 1998 tells who has the status of a military personnel. Law No. 5 of January 12, 1995 clarifies who should be considered a military veteran. Given the difficult economic situation, some laws governing sanatorium provision for military personnel may change. Ministry of Defense officials speak about this openly.

Now in our country there are over fifty military resort and sanatorium organizations, both for current military personnel and for military retirees. Thirty-seven sanatorium-type institutions, eight rest houses and seven tourist centers are now subordinate to the RF Ministry of Defense. Health organizations are located throughout Russia. They treat:

• musculoskeletal system;
• respiratory system;
• nervous system.

Resorts are divided according to therapeutic factors:

• Climatic institutions provide treatment due to the climate within which they are located.
• Balneological organizations treat mainly with mineral water.
• Mud sanatoriums base their treatment on therapeutic mud.
• Mixed-type organizations combine various types of treatment listed above.

Recreation centers include: skiing, rafting on mountain rivers, cycling, walking, etc.

Military sanatoriums of Crimea

There are six military sanatoriums on the peninsula. The resort factor of health resorts located on the South Coast is the unique Crimean climate. The sanatoriums of the eastern part are famous for their healing sand and mineral water. Military hospital named after. N. Pirogova became famous thanks to the famous peloid of the Saki deposit. Prices for treatment in these institutions are determined based on the benefits of the Russian Ministry of Defense.

Availability of places for a certain period can be found on the official websites of these institutions.

Free trips

According to the legislative act of the Russian Federation No. 178 07/17/99, the following are entitled to free trips:

1. pensioners who served in law enforcement agencies;
2. Afghans and families of those who died in the Afghan events of 1979-89;
3. Leningrad siege survivors;
4. disabled veterans and their families;
5. families, citizens who died in the Second World War;
6. WWII veterans.

Procedure for obtaining a voucher

If you are a military pensioner, then to receive a sanatorium voucher you will need:

1. Collect the necessary documents: passport, pension certificate, military ID.
2. If you are going on vacation with your family, make sure that all family members are included in the “special notes” of the pension certificate.
3. It is also necessary to obtain a certificate of form No.070/U-04 about the need for health improvement or treatment in a sanatorium. This document is obtained from the local therapist.
4. To receive a voucher you will also need a personal account (SNILS).
5. If you are disabled, an expert opinion from a medical commission will be required.
6. Relevant medical certificates must be prepared for all family members.
7. It will also be necessary to confirm the relationship of all your companions. You must have a marriage certificate and a birth certificate of a child.
8. To receive a voucher, you should contact the regional department of the Moscow Region that deals with sanatorium provision, where you write a statement about your desire to undergo sanatorium treatment for the whole family.

The Department of the Ministry of Defense, having considered your application, must issue you an order to issue a voucher. The right to receive treatment is registered directly at the sanatorium. The address of the Ministry of Defense department responsible for sanatorium provision can be found in your military unit or on the Ministry of Defense website.

How to compensate for travel

Travel expenses can be reimbursed immediately. A military pensioner is issued tickets that allow free travel to the place of treatment.

Refunds for the cost of the ticket can also be made after staying in the sanatorium. To do this, you need to provide all the tickets that were required to arrive at the sanatorium. It is worth remembering that only tickets that meet the following requirements will be paid for:

• buses must be of a general type or have reclining soft seats;
• travel documents in a reserved seat railway carriage are subject to compensation;
• Air tickets can only be economy class;
• If river boats were used to arrive at the place of treatment, then travel documents in a third-class cabin are taken into account. If these were sea-type vessels, then tickets to cabins of the fourth and fifth groups will be compensated.

Home page of the Ministry of Defense website

Employees of the Russian Ministry of Defense, as well as their children, are given the opportunity to relax in sanatoriums every year. A list of possible sanatoriums can be found on the official website of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Having looked at the information on the website about the sanatoriums, upon arrival at the sanatorium you will not be disappointed with what you see.

Sanatorium-resort treatment provided to military pensioners, military personnel and members of their families is one of the social guarantees established by the state. In April 2016, new rules for the registration and use of this type of benefits, reflected in the documents of the RF Armed Forces, came into force. Adjustments have been made to the procedure for providing military personnel with sanatorium and resort treatment, its types and categories of military beneficiaries have been streamlined. The legal acts of the Ministry of Defense reflect the principles of compensation for the costs of rest and treatment of military personnel and members of their families, and also set out in detail the application submission scheme and outline the package of documents necessary to receive benefits.

Studying the legal framework will help you understand who and under what conditions are entitled to sanatorium and resort provision in medical organizations of the Ministry of Defense in 2019, in which cases rest and treatment will be free, and when only part of the costs are reimbursed, and how to correctly register the benefit.

The legislative framework

Documents related to providing military personnel with the opportunity to rest and restore health can be conditionally divided into those that secure this right, contain a list of preferential categories and requirements for applicants for the provision of guarantees, and papers regulating the procedure for obtaining benefits and processing documents.

The first group includes:

• “Law on the status of military personnel” (No. 76 Federal Law);
• “Law on Veterans” (No. 5 Federal Law);
• Presidential Decree on Military Service (No. 1237);
• a number of Ministry of Defense documents issued within individual departments and service areas.

The second is Order 333 of the Ministry of Defense, the last adjustments to it were made in March 2016.

Since the main task that this benefit should solve is to improve the health of military personnel, among the main documents one cannot fail to mention the legal acts of the Ministry of Health and Social Development, namely Order 328 (12/29/2004) and the “Law on Social Assistance” No. 178 Federal Law (07/17/99) .

The provision of benefits depends on two factors:

• whether the serviceman is classified in one of the categories approved by law;
• Are there medical indications for treatment?

The opportunity for free periodic visits to departmental sanatoriums is available only to those categories of military personnel listed in the laws. It is there that one should look for the answer: is sanatorium-resort treatment appropriate for a military pensioner, a combat veteran, the widow or wife of a serviceman, his children, and so on.

The last criterion is the main one when determining the type of collateral.

Differences in sanatorium and resort provision for military personnel

There are a large number of medical institutions under the Ministry of Defense.

These include:

• hospitals;
• clinics;
• sanatoriums;
• recreation centers;
• boarding houses.

With a doctor's prescription, active military personnel, military retirees and their families can combine vacations in Defense Department sanatoriums with additional treatment or rehabilitation. Benefits in this case will be provided by providing a referral to a specialized organization.

Among the existing sanatoriums under the Ministry of Defense there are resorts and boarding houses specializing in:

• treatment of the musculoskeletal system;
• prevention and treatment of respiratory organs;
• restoration of the nervous system;
• treatment and prevention of the gastrointestinal tract, etc.

The geography of health resorts in the Moscow Region is quite extensive - they are located in Crimea, Sochi and the Krasnodar Territory, in the Far East and North Caucasus, on the Volga and in the Moscow region. This allows military personnel to choose a suitable climate zone for rest and treatment, depending on medical purposes or personal preferences.

Important! When issuing a voucher, medical contraindications that the person liable for military service have are taken into account.

In addition to treatment, the Defense Ministry provides military personnel with the opportunity to relax at existing bases/rest homes. A tourist voucher can be obtained at any time of the year, based on the type of activity that the military man and his family prefer. Recreation centers offer excursion tours, boat trips, programs for lovers of skiing, cycling, river rafting, fishing and the like.

Certain organizations of the Ministry of Defense are engaged in providing children's recreation during the holidays.

A complete list of sanatorium and resort events is contained on the Ministry of Defense portal:

• sanatoriums https://sc.mil.ru/social/health/sanatoriums.htm;
• rest houses https://sc.mil.ru/social/health/resthouses.htm ;
• recreation centers https://sc.mil.ru/social/health/hostels.htm ;
• children's centers https://sc.mil.ru/social/health/for_children.htm.

Who is entitled to free holidays in sanatoriums of the Russian Ministry of Defense

Discount vouchers are provided to military personnel on a paid basis, while the Ministry of Defense compensates employees for part of their vacation costs. Some employees of military departments are entitled to sanatorium-resort treatment free of charge.

The right to free trips through the Social Insurance Fund is provided for:

• disabled people and WWII veterans, as well as WWII participants;
• military personnel who have the title of Hero of the Russian Federation and the USSR, Social. Labor;
• military, awarded the Order of Labor Glory;
• citizens who survived the siege of Leningrad and have the appropriate sign;
• disabled war veterans;
• combat veterans and participants in battles in Afghanistan (1979-1989).

If a military man belonging to the above category has issued cash payments, then the vouchers are provided to him at full cost.

It is understood that he must pay from the social benefits he receives.

Through the military department, the following categories can benefit from sanatorium-resort treatment free of charge:

• children of contract military personnel in active units (except for members of permanent military units, if their service began on 01/01/04, and cadets);
• children of military pensioners who left the army due to length of service;
• family members of military officers, if the latter died during their service (those who lost their breadwinner, retired parents or disabled people);
• family members of a deceased military pensioner, if during his lifetime he had this benefit (he was a veteran of the Second World War, a disabled war veteran, a war veteran, a siege survivor, and so on);
• disabled parents, spouses of military personnel listed as missing after the North Caucasus conflict (from 08/01/99);
• widows/widowers and parents of military personnel who died during the sinking of the cruiser Kursk.

This list is supplemented if the serviceman is sent to undergo rehabilitation by a medical institution after being in a hospital. The vouchers are paid, but the department reimburses 100% of their cost.

The following are entitled to benefits on this basis:

• contract soldiers serving in permanent readiness units, regardless of the date of their entry into service;
• conscripts;
• cadets;
• military pensioners;
• civil servants under the military department.

When a serviceman is entitled to spa treatment for several different reasons, he has the right to use only one. Meanwhile, it is permissible to choose the basis for which the conditions for providing benefits are most beneficial to the recipient.

Conditions for providing benefits to military pensioners and reservists

Receiving social guarantees, including the organization of recreation and treatment, is not available to every military man who has retired to the reserve and received pensioner status.

Taking on the obligation to provide resort facilities for military pensioners and military personnel transferred to the reserve, the Ministry of Defense puts forward a number of requirements for applicants for benefits. Only if they are observed, the department will reimburse its former employees for vacation expenses.

To take advantage of the benefit for sanatorium treatment, military pensioners must have:

• preferential service of at least 20 years in the ranks of the RF Armed Forces or law enforcement agencies upon dismissal on the grounds stated below, or the duration of service was 25 years or more;
• a certain basis for dismissal from the army (poor health, age limit, dismissal, staff changes in the unit);
• illness or injury acquired during military operations, resulting in a military disability;
• direction of the medical department of the Moscow Region;
• appointment for health improvement from the attending physician indicating the absence of contraindications (certificate No. 070/U-04).

Those military pensioners who have been assigned by a commission for treatment and rehabilitation based on the list of diseases recommended by the Ministry of Defense can count on reimbursement of costs.

List of diseases requiring referral to sanatorium-resort treatment

The Ministry of Defense compensates for sanatorium-resort treatment only in subordinate institutions.

The law does not provide for the provision of military pensioners with free travel vouchers or reimbursement of costs for recreation/treatment in civilian sanatoriums.

In addition to military pensioners themselves, their relatives can take advantage of preferential holidays.

• spouse;
• minor children;
• disabled parents;
• adult children who received a disability before reaching 18 years of age or under 23 years of age and studying full-time;
• dependent relatives.

In addition, if a pensioner is a disabled person of group I and needs an accompanying person, the latter is provided with a separate paid voucher.

By issuing the benefit, the department compensates vacationers not only for food and accommodation, but also for travel costs. See terms and conditions for reimbursement of travel expenses.

Frequency of receiving benefits

As a general rule, beneficiaries who have legal grounds for sanatorium and resort benefits can use it once per year. Based on existing diseases, military personnel have the right to choose the place for treatment or recreation. On the portal of the Ministry of Defense and the websites of health resorts, you can find out about the availability of places in departmental boarding houses.

If a serviceman was unable to take advantage of the benefit this year, it is not carried over to the next year.

Exceptions to the frequency rules:

• the opportunity for treatment twice a year is given to group I disabled people;
• active military personnel, when the medical commission insists on their treatment and rehabilitation more than once a year, are provided with preferential vouchers, in accordance with medical purposes.

Especially in the case of the consequences of injuries, injuries and illnesses that were directly caused by the performance of duties.

Benefits for a military sanatorium for civilian personnel

The conditions for providing treatment and recreation in departmental sanatoriums for civilian personnel in the law are determined by an agreement between the civil trade union organization of the RF Armed Forces and the Defense Ministry. The agreement is formalized in the form of an agreement.

Most often, annual vouchers are provided to civil servants at the Ministry of Defense on the terms of payment of 30% of their total cost.

The exception is the referral of civilian employees for treatment and rehabilitation according to the testimony of the military medical commission. In this case, the defense department assumes all costs.

For relatives of this category of employees, the cost of vacation will be equal to commercial.

The package of necessary documents will depend on the basis on which the military member is granted the benefit.

If a serviceman who has received a voucher cannot use it due to objective circumstances, he should contact the department with an application to cancel it. The reason for refusal must be valid. This way you can use the benefit at another time.

At the moment, the Ministry of Defense has begun implementing vouchers for 2019.

Typical problems

The main difficulties faced by military personnel who want to receive sanatorium and resort provision are related to justifying their rights to benefits, the availability of places in health resorts and the preparation of the necessary documents.

Often, military personnel who are legally obligated to pay for the vacation in full try to claim the benefit. For example, if a military pensioner does not have enough length of service, or the WBD receives a free voucher for himself and demands 100% compensation for his spouse and child.

This error is due to a misunderstanding of the law, and can be resolved by informing applicants. The law clearly defines the dependence of the amount of compensation for expenses on the category of the serviceman or his family members.

The largest number of errors during registration is associated with certificate No. 070/U-04. Military personnel, having received it, do not attach importance to the validity period of the document. It should be remembered that the certificate remains valid for six months after issue. After the specified time, the document must be issued again.

Since the Department of Sanatorium and Resort Services abandoned the allocation of places in departmental institutions and switched to a personal reservation system, military personnel have to literally “catch” free places in health resorts in order to issue a voucher. Especially difficulties arise for those who expect to relax during the holiday season. There are options for solving this problem, however, none of them have been implemented yet.
