How quickly and without queues to pass the driver’s commission and professional medical examination – told in the Minsk City Executive Committee

Do I need a medical certificate to drive or will I have a professional medical examination? Pre-registration is the most convenient option. Medical boards and preventive examinations do not require emergency, so there is no need to come without an appointment and waste time in line. Recording helps to plan a visit, avoid unnecessary trips and calmly prepare the necessary documents. Such information with the journalist sb.by shared the press Secretary of the health Committee of the Minsk city Executive Committee Julia Borodun.

Yulia Borodun also recalled that in the 24th polyclinic of special medical examinations in Minsk, you can undergo not only medical examinations for the right to drive vehicles, but also other mandatory professional medical examinations:

- Both the driver's commission and the inspections can be registered in advance - this allows you to choose a convenient time and specify in advance what documents will be needed in your case. And for those who want to simplify the process as much as possible, the Careful Examination program operates in the 24th clinic. Its important advantage is that you do not need to collect medical records yourself. The necessary information from medical organizations specialists request independently. This is especially useful if the person has been observed in different health care facilities and the collection of documents can take a long time.

To pass the driver's commission you will need: a passport or other identity document, a medical certificate, two photos 3×4 cm, a military ticket for conscripts. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, take them with you. If there is no military card and you are under 27 years of age, you may need a draftee certificate with the necessary information about the postponement.

- The most important thing is medical discharge, Yulia Borodun added. If you pass the driving commission on your own, you should take the discharge especially carefully. It should contain information about requests for medical care for at least the last five years, past and chronic diseases, the results of dispensary examinations, as well as the necessary results of research. Including a general blood test, a general analysis of urine, blood glucose, an electrocardiogram, information on diagnostic, therapeutic and other medical interventions.

Important: If a person has been observed in multiple health care organizations, discharges from all of these institutions may be required. But if you choose the program "Careful inspection", the need to collect such statements yourself disappears.

- The driving commission is not only a sight check, Yulia Borodun emphasized. The commission includes a therapist, neurologist, ophthalmologist, otorhinolaryngologist, psychiatrist-narcologist. If necessary, other specialists can be involved - for example, a surgeon, an obstetrician-gynecologist, as well as specialists in the profile of the existing disease. Candidates for drivers in some cases require the examination of a surgeon. In the presence of chronic diseases or if medical indications are detected during the commission, additional consultations and examinations may be necessary.

Therefore, it is impossible to promise that the entire commission will take 30 minutes. The duration depends on the state of health, medical history and whether all the necessary documents and research results have been prepared.

Medical driving commission in Minsk can be done not only in the 24th clinic. The list also includes the State Institution “Medical Civil Aviation Service”, the medical center of MTZ, the medical center of OJSC “Managing Company of Horizon Holding”, the MCH of OJSC “Minsk Mechanical Plant named after S. I. Vavilov – the management company of the holding “Belomo”, the MCH of OJSC “Minsk Automobile Plant”, the Central Polyclinic of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the 432nd Order of the Red Star the Main Military Clinical Center of the Armed Forces, the 2nd City Clinical Hospital, the 11th City Polyclinical Center. The list will expand.

- Medical examinations of workers are also conducted in polyclinics of Minsk, Yulia Borodun added. We are talking about those employed in jobs with harmful working conditions, as well as those working in positions and types of work where there is a need for professional selection.
