Summary. The objectives of the study are to theoretically study the main organizational problems of treatment (medical examination) of military personnel and persons equivalent to them in combat conditions in the Special Military Operation (SMO) zone; to empirically confirm the theoretical premises put forward during the study of the examination and treatment results identified over two years of the hospital’s operation.

Research materials and methods. The research materials are scientific papers devoted to: the organization and legal regulation of medical care for military personnel (employees); problematic issues of conducting military medical (MME) and medical examination; the nature and specifics of medical examination and certification in military medical organizations.

Research methods: systemic and comprehensive approaches; epistemological means of functional and comparative legal analysis, etc.

Research results and their analysis. The article considers the issues of taking into account the results of internal quality control when conducting a military medical examination of the wounded (sick) during an armed (military) conflict. The issues of recording the results of primary health care provided to victims during military operations and monitoring the quality and safety of such care when making expert decisions by military medical commissions (MMC) are disclosed in detail. It is noted that the accuracy and validity of MMC conclusions, which directly affect the provision of guarantees and compensation to military personnel, depend on the correct recording of the volume, quality and circumstances of medical care in primary medical documents. The system of providing medical care in armed conflict and the regulatory framework for this activity are assessed. Directions for further improvement of quality control and safety of medical activities and recording its results when conducting military medical examination in armed conflict are proposed.

Keywords: armed conflicts, medical documentation, medical evacuation, medical examination, military conflicts, military medical examination, military personnel, primary health care, quality and safety of medical activities, Special military operation, treatment, victims
