All government agencies, including schools, councils, social welfare departments and ordinary city polyclinics, are located in different districts. As a rule, people are observed in a certain medical institution to which they are attached at the place of residence. However, this does not always mean that the clinic closest to you will be the one that you need. Therefore, if you are going to seek medical help for the first time, find out how you can find your clinic.
Instructions
Step 1
Go to the internet. The easiest way to find the right clinic for you is to visit the website of your city's Department of Health. If we are talking about Moscow, then it will be https://www.mosgorzdrav.ru. Then you just have to select the district and indicate the nearest metro station. The system itself will show you all the information about the medical institutions available on this site - both adults and children. If there are several options, call them and specify which institution your address belongs to.
Step 2
If you don't have the Internet at hand, you can use a regular phone. Call the hotline for your City Department of Health. Its specialists work, as a rule, in the general operating mode of the organization, i.e. from 9.00 to 18.00. In some cases, the closing time may be extended until 20.00. Saturday, Sunday - days off. In a conversation with a specialist, you need to give your address, and in response you will receive all the information you are interested in - up to the operating hours of the clinic.
Step 3
The address book will also help you in your search. Look for the addresses of the clinics that suit you in the area and just call them to find out which one you need to come to.
Step 4
You can just ask the neighbors. Especially among those who are already aged. They will tell you the way, the opening hours, and the name of your GP.
Step 5
Sometimes the name of your primary health care facility is listed on your compulsory health insurance (MHI) policy. Therefore, carefully study the document, perhaps it is he who will help you solve this riddle.
Step 6
Remember that you can contact the polyclinic at your place of residence even if you have actual permanent registration in another area. You just need to write an application addressed to the head physician, and that clinic, which is assigned to the place of your actual residence, and not a permanent residence permit, will become the base for you.
