The national procedure of carrying out clinical and expert evaluation of the medical care quality and medical services was analyzed; the subject's composition, the scope of the investigation, and the procedure as well as the types and powers of the clinical and expert commissions were covered. Peculiarities of providing consent to personal data processing while considering appeals to the clinical and expert commission were characterized; enforcement of the individual's right for personal participation in the hearing of the appeal by the commission was described. The drawbacks of the terminological framework were highlighted, in particular the definitions of the term "quality of medical care", and proposals of their improvement were provided.
