The court recovered from the Ministry of Health of the Pskov region losses for failure to provide a disabled child with medicines

Pskov city court considered the claim to the Ministry of health of the Pskov region for recovery of damages and compensation for moral damage. This “MK in Pskov” reported in the press service of the courts of the Pskov region.

A disabled child had to receive medical products and drugs according to the prescriptions of the attending physician, but the necessary products were not found in pharmacies.

The mother of a boy from the Pechora district bought them for her money, and spent more than 13 thousand rubles.

The court decided that these costs should be reimbursed at the expense of the treasury of the Pskov region, since the department did not provide the child with medical devices, violating his right to free medical care.

In determining compensation for moral damage, the court took into account the mother’s experiences, the age of the child, the presence of a disability and a disease requiring continuous treatment, the degree of guilt of the defendant, as well as the requirements of reasonableness and justice.

In the account of compensation recovered 10 thousand rubles.
