• How to get a ticket to a military sanatorium

The state provides military personnel and military pensioners with the opportunity for productive rest and treatment on preferential terms. This right is regulated by the norms of the Federal Law of May 27, 1998 N 76-FZ “On the Status of Military Personnel”. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has many subordinate sanatoriums in different parts of Russia. These are modern well-appointed health resorts equipped with excellent equipment for the treatment of the most various diseases and healing of the body. And if earlier it was rather difficult for a simple officer, and even more so in a junior rank, to get a ticket to a sanatorium, now a specially created Department for the sanatorium and resort provision of military personnel is engaged in the distribution of vouchers. Therefore, literally all officers had a chance to relax in a specialized sanatorium at a convenient time.

However, if the distribution of vouchers has changed significantly, the benefits for a military sanatorium have remained the same. They depend on the rank of the soldier, his status and the need for treatment. Therefore, in order to understand what kind of benefits for a military sanatorium you can count on in each individual case, you need to get acquainted with the regulatory documents in more detail.

Benefits for a military sanatorium for active military personnel

In simple terms, the whole set of groups and gradations of military personnel, depending on their right to preferential rest in a sanatorium, can be divided into two groups:

Those who are entitled to a free ticket

Those who have to pay 25% of the cost of the tour.

In addition, family members of military personnel are entitled to benefits for a military sanatorium:

Parents,

Spouses

Children under the age of 18,

Children under the age of 23 enrolled in educational institutions in full-time education.

Most often, family members of a serviceman or military pensioner pay 50% of the cost of a voucher to a sanatorium. The general procedure for granting benefits and the categories of military personnel who are entitled to them are regulated by Order of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation of March 15, 2011 N 333 "On the procedure for sanatorium and resort provision in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation."

In particular, almost all servicemen in officer rank who are on active duty are entitled to pay 25% of the cost of the voucher. If specialized treatment is necessary, according to the conclusion of the medical commission or to continue hospital treatment, such military personnel are entitled to a free ticket to a sanatorium. Moreover, not only officers, but also warrant officers, cadets, sergeants and privates serving under the contract. In other cases, enlisted personnel serving under a contract since January 1, 2004, as well as cadets of military schools, pay 100% of the cost of vouchers to a military sanatorium, but they are entitled to receive such vouchers. Representatives of dangerous military branches - pilots, paratroopers, missilemen, submariners - after completing a combat mission, as well as participants in hostilities in "hot spots" can also relax in military health resorts for free.

The duration of treatment in sanatorium-resort and health-improving institutions of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for military personnel on permits is up to 24 days. In the case of treatment by a serviceman of a disease or the consequences of spinal cord injuries, the period of such sanatorium-and-spa treatment on a voucher may be extended to days, in accordance with the conclusion of the military medical commission.

Benefits for a military sanatorium for civilian personnel

Persons who are civilian personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have the right to receive vouchers to military sanatoriums on the terms determined by agreements between the Federation of Trade Unions of Workers and Employees of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, concluded in the prescribed manner for each specific case. Depending on the terms of these agreements, benefits for a military sanatorium for such persons and the terms of payment for their vouchers are determined.

At the same time, special marks "For civilian personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation" are affixed to the vouchers. These marks are made by the Main Military Medical Directorate of the Ministry of Defense or the medical service of the armed forces, military district, fleet, armed forces, Railway Troops, Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defense to send civilian personnel to their subordinate sanatoriums and rest homes on preferential terms. If persons who are civilian personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are sent to a sanatorium on the conclusion of a hospital military medical commission to continue hospital treatment, they receive free vouchers. Relatives of civilian personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation do not have benefits for a military sanatorium.

Benefits for a military sanatorium for pensioners

In accordance with the same Order of March 15, 2011 N 333, all officers dismissed from military service when they reach the age limit for military service or for health reasons or in connection with organizational and staff measures, if the total duration of their military service, taking into account the preferential calculation of length of service, was 20 years or more, they are entitled to payment of 25% of the cost vouchers to a military sanatorium. A similar benefit is available to all military pensioners in officer rank, whose total duration of military service was 25 years or more, regardless of the reason for their dismissal from the ranks of the RF Armed Forces. Family members of military pensioners in this case pay 50% of the cost of vouchers.

Ensigns and midshipmen who have served in the ranks of the RF Armed Forces for at least 20 years have similar benefits for a military sanatorium if they were transferred to the reserve for health reasons, due to reaching the age limit or due to staff reduction.

Benefits for military pensioners - a category of guarantees for which the corresponding status is not sufficient. Benefits for military pensioners are provided subject to a number of conditions, including a certain number of years of service, grounds for retirement, etc. What rights do retired military men have and how to exercise them is set out in this article.

Grounds for retirement of military personnel

In accordance with article 5 of the law "On pension provision of persons who did military service in the internal affairs department, the state fire service, bodies of the BNON and the Penitentiary System, and their families ”No. 4468-1 of February 12, 1993, the departure of these citizens for a well-deserved rest may be due to 2 circumstances:

• length of service (including retirement due to reaching the age limit);
• disability (subject to its occurrence as a result of an injury or illness received in connection with the performance of official duties).

The age limit, after which it is impossible to continue the service, is established by the regulations of a particular department and always depends on the military or special rank.

For example, according to the regulation on military service, military men with a rank below a colonel (for the Navy - captain 1st rank) can remain "in service" for up to 50 years.

The right to a special pension for servicemen dismissed due to reaching the age limit begins if they have a total length of service of at least 25 years, of which 12.5 years is the service life. This provision is the same for representatives of all law enforcement agencies listed in the law. An exception is retirement due to disability, in which length of service does not matter.

To qualify for retirement, you must have served at least 20 years. In this case, the summation of military and civilian experience is not provided.

Important: as follows from the name of the law, its effect applies not only to military personnel, but also to former police officers, firefighters, employees of the penitentiary system and the State Drug Control Service.

Benefits for pensioners: military, Ministry of Internal Affairs and others

The advantages of former military personnel, police officers, etc. over "civilian" pensioners are not only in the increased pension. For those who took off their shoulder straps before leaving for a well-deserved rest, special benefits and guarantees are provided.

In particular, this is expressed in the preferential right to employment: by virtue of Article 13 of the Law “On Employment of the Population” No. 1032-1 of April 19, 1991, jobs in state and unitary enterprises are provided to military pensioners in the first place.

Tax incentives for military pensioners

Article 407 of the Tax Code of Russia provides benefits for military pensioners on payment of property tax in respect of the following real estate objects:

• apartment (room in a communal apartment);
• single-family residential building;
• garage (or parking place).
• utility buildings with an area of ​​​​not more than 50 square meters, etc.

Important: the benefit is to exempt a military pensioner from paying real estate tax.

As for transport and land taxes, the federal legislation does not provide for any benefits in their respect for former military personnel. However, they can be set at the regional level. The exception is military veterans and the disabled, who do not need to pay for the possession of cars and other motor vehicles in their property.

Social benefits for military pensioners

Law "On the status of military personnel" No. 76-FZ of May 27, 1998 provides benefits for military pensioners and in the field of medical and sanatorium services:

• free provision of medical services in specialized clinics and hospitals;
• free sanatorium-and-spa treatment in military medical healthcare institutions;
• Compensation for travel to the place of sanatorium treatment and back (not more than 1 time per year).

Benefits for military pensioners payment for housing and communal services, unfortunately, are not provided, at least at the country level. But regional authorities often provide former military personnel with some preferences in this area. For example, in the capital, veterans of military service who have reached the general retirement age pay utility bills at a 50% discount. Such a guarantee is established by the law of the city of Moscow "On measures social support Certain Categories of Moscow Residents” No. 70 dated 03.11.2004.

Pensioner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs - labor veteran: benefits and guarantees

Benefits for military pensioners pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs system, as well as retired employees of other services subject to law No. 4468-1 of February 12, 1993, who have the status of a labor veteran, are provided in accordance with both categories at the same time. That is, in addition to "military" privileges, they also have the right to guarantees provided for by the law "On Veterans" No. 5-FZ of 01/12/1995.

Such preferences are established by the laws of the constituent entities of Russia, but in general, their list is identical throughout the country. As a rule, it includes:

• free (or preferential) travel by public transport of all types, except for taxis and fixed-route taxis);
• 50% discount on utility bills;
• free medical care, including prosthetics (with the exception of covering the cost of dentures in most cases);
• increased pension payments, etc.

Benefits for widows of retired military personnel

For widows and other members of the family of military personnel, the state provides a very impressive set of benefits. However, in terms of guarantees for the widows of servicemen who died after retiring, legislators turned out to be less loyal. For example, they are not eligible for tax credits or increased pension(unless otherwise provided by regional regulatory legal acts).

But the widows of military pensioners retain the opportunity to use sanatorium treatment free of charge if they did this before the death of their spouse. They can also count on the payment of travel to the sanatorium and back.

In other words, there are no special benefits for widows of military pensioners (with the exception of widows of veterans of military operations, the Second World War, Heroes of the USSR and the Russian Federation, etc.), but they retain all the preferences that took place before the death of their spouse (wife).

Medical Benefits

This category of benefits is important for military personnel, since the risk of injury and injury in the process of serving is very high. The relief is enshrined in law in Article 16. All the right things medical service produced free of charge.

• free dentistry (prosthetics and treatment);
• (for recovery or planned treatment).
