description Abstract The article addresses the problem of providing the right of prisoners to proper medical care. Aim. To study and analyze the key regulatory legal acts regulating the right to medical care of persons deprived of their liberty and to find out the problems that arise in implementing this right. Methods: historical, procedural and institutional analysis, behavioral and synergetic approaches, civil law method. Results. The analysis of a normative and legal basis that regulates issues of right to medical care and its implementation has been conducted. It has been theoretically justified, that successful and dynamic development of both medical low in particular and the State as a whole depends largely on the system of legal protection for human rights quality in the field of health care and to what extent everybody can enjoy the rights given. At the same time, the legal norms in the field of health care must not remain declarations only - standards unaccompanied by creation of a system for their realization, protection and defence. Conclusions. A greater focus needs to be placed on the legal framework improvement and actual use of the legislative provisions relating to the investigation of complaints concerning ill-treatment and violation of human dignity, a failure to provide or inappropriate medical care, inadequate custody of persons deprived of their liberty.
