A court in Novosibirsk has ruled that the Ministry of Health must supply an expensive medication to a patient in need. The decision mandates the provision of the drug, which is crucial for the patient’s treatment and well-being.
The case was brought to court after the patient was unable to obtain the necessary medication through standard channels, citing its high cost and limited availability. The court’s ruling underscores the legal obligation of the Ministry of Health to ensure access to essential treatments for all citizens, regardless of the cost.
This ruling sets a significant precedent for similar cases, reinforcing the right to necessary medical care and the state’s responsibility to provide it. The Ministry of Health is expected to comply with the court’s decision promptly to ensure the patient’s health needs are met.
