    Abstract:
    The authors discuss one of the important aspects of military medicolegal laboratory activities connected with the quality control of medical care rendered in the military treatment-and-prophylactic institutions in the nineties of the XX century. The example of medical care defects (MCD) permitted to reveal their nature, causes and sites of origin at pre-hospital (PHS) and hospital (HS) stages. Despite some decrease in the total number of MCD revealed HS defects prevail (more than 75%); the organizational defects at PHS and diagnostic defects at HS are predominant. The main MCD causes are inadequate qualification of medical workers, defects in organization of treatment-and-diagnostic process and inadequate examination of patients.
