Licensing of medicine and cosmetology

According to the current Ukrainian legislation, the provision of any medical services in Ukraine must be accompanied by obtaining a license. If you do not obtain a license, the activity is considered illegal and is punishable by fines (1000-2000 NMDG).

Modern medical law stipulates that medical practice is carried out:

1. By medical specialties. Their list is approved by the Ministry of Health.
2. At the place of medical assistance.
3. By types of medical assistance.

The license is provided by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. To obtain it, it is important to meet certain requirements and collect the necessary package of documents, taking into account all legal nuances. That is why it is quite difficult to obtain a license on your own. It is better to entrust this matter to real specialists – lawyers Prikhodko and Partners.
