The Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation[1] (Russian: Министерство здравоохранения Российской Федерации, in short Russian: Минздрав России, romanized: Minzdrav Rossii) is a ministry of the Government of Russia responsible for health care and public health.
The Ministry of Health oversees the legal regulation and state policies of health in Russia, including pharmaceuticals, the public health care system, health insurance, medical rehabilitation, sanitation, disease prevention, and the circulation of medicines. It is headquartered in Tverskoy District, Moscow.[2]
The Ministry of Health was formed in 2012 from the Ministry of Health and Social Development which was split in two under Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, with the social security departments forming the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs.
