[THE ACTUAL ISSUES OF SERVICING MEDICAL EQUIPMENT IN CONDITION OF SANCTIONS]

The concept of servicing maintenance implies implementation of routine technical inspection, checkup and carrying out of repair work applying spare parts and accessories. In conditions of increasing sanctions pressure, organization of supplies of component parts and accessories became complicated. As a result, delivery time and cost of such component parts increased. Because of the fact that most of medical equipment on balance sheet of medical institutions is imported, current situation affected process of servicing maintenance of medical equipment used in routine medical services in hospitals and polyclinics. Actually, main regulations of technical servicing of medical devices are established by single state standard specifying category of medical device that includes such types of goods as medical technique and medical equipment. Along with this, above-mentioned document contains enumeration of works related to servicing maintenance: unscheduled and periodic technical maintenance and diagnostics, control of technical condition, installation, dismantling, tooling, repair work. From numbered enumeration of realizing works follows that their implementation requires usage of complementary depot units and accessories, which, according to requirements of legislation in action, are to be provided from foreign builder. Consequently, such an order, in view of established circumstances, is significantly burdened by measures of sanctions impact. Whereas, vast majority of different medical institutions run into problems of organization of servicing maintenance of medical equipment on the balance sheet. Such a situation requires permission at legislative level, since at present time carrying out servicing maintenance is allowed only with consideration of usage of original components. Therefore, establishment of separate procedure of usage of analog component parts would be a constructive solution of revealed problematic aspect.
