I work in an ambulance and emergency care in the city of Moscow since 1978, then served in the army at a medical center as a paramedic, also then again in an ambulance until now.
The total length of service was considered by the Central Archive of Moscow Medical Workers and the Ambulance Pension Fund, everything was fine, that is, 30 years, even our pension fund calculated it and it turned out that 8 days were missing, then they told me to go to court and there a representative of the Balashikha Pension Fund said that it turns out that it was mine The experience is only 2 years 10 months. and the rest is not included in the experience, so what do I need for 2 years 10 months. The Moscow City Hall gave me a medal for my work; the pension fund is silent.
Moreover, the judge was given information from the chief emergency physician saying that my specialty corresponds to a preferential profession for receiving a pension upon reaching 30 years of experience, and the pension fund lawyer says that this is not a decree for her and I don’t know where to turn, I don’t know anyone of the law, can you tell me what to look for in order to respond to such attacks and still don’t tell me how much it costs to hire a lawyer, maybe it will be better (otherwise it turns out not to be fair, it means I can work in an ambulance but I don’t have a pension, although especially those who live in Moscow receive it without problems and We have such difficulties)

30. After graduating from medical school in 1989, he got a job in a rural hospital. From this hospital he was called up for military service and returned there after the army; for 2 years (1989-1991) he served in the army as a medical assistant in a military unit in a rural area. According to current legislation, a health worker who has worked in rural areas for 25 years has the right to early retirement. Question: Is military service included in the medical experience of a health worker who has worked in rural areas? Thanks in advance. Komi Republic.
30.1. Alexander, good evening! Employees of healthcare institutions have various pension benefits in terms of early retirement. Before reaching the generally established retirement age (60 years for men and 55 years for women), an old-age labor pension is assigned for long work experience in healthcare institutions (30 years in the city, 25 years in rural areas), as well as when performing work with special working conditions – according to List No. 1 (harmful working conditions), according to List No. 2 (difficult working conditions).
A pension according to List No. 1 is established for men upon reaching 50 years of age and for women upon reaching 45 years of age, if they have worked for at least 10 years and 7 years 6 months in jobs with hazardous working conditions and have an insurance period of at least 20 and 15 years, respectively. According to List No. 2, a pension is assigned to men upon reaching 55 years of age and women upon reaching 50 years of age if they have worked in jobs with difficult working conditions for at least 12 years, 6 months and 10 years and have an insurance period of at least 25 and 20 years, respectively. In the media It was once heard that a draft law was being prepared on deferment from military service until completion of studies at any educational institution.
And using scattered documents I tried to trace the life of this man.
From the award sheet that I found on the website Feat of the people , it became known that Snyatkov V.G. was drafted by the Primorsky RVK of Leningrad on August 22, 1941 and took part in the battles on the Leningrad Front.
January 16, 1942 Sergeant Snyatkov V.G. was injured. Diagnosis: blind shrapnel wound of soft tissue of the lower third of the right leg.
After being wounded, Vladimir Georgievich entered the Leningrad Military Medical School named after N.A. Shchors (which was evacuated to Omsk in August 1941), which he graduated on February 17, 1944 with 1st category. All grades are excellent, only for physical training - good (due to injury).
After graduating from the Leningrad Military Medical School, he was assigned to the 4th Separate Medical and Sanitary Battalion, which was part of 32 Upper Dnieper Red Banner Division.
The photograph shows the personnel of the 4th Separate Medical and Sanitary Battalion, July 1944, near the village of Petrygi ( Smolensk region). Ensign Snyatkov V.G. in the top row on the right.
Top row from left to right - senior officer m/s Demiman(?), senior officer m/s Borshchev, senior officer m/s Romanov, junior officer m/s Snyatkov V.G.
Bottom row from left to right - cap.m/s Slavin Moisei Abramovich, m/s Dubinin Dmitry Filippovich, cap.m/s(?) Vovk, officer m/s Kolyaskina Maria Mikhailovna (the photo is overexposed in this place).
After the war, medical service lieutenant V.G. Snyatkov. served in military unit 29209 (topographic and geodetic detachment) in the regions Far North on the Chukotka Peninsula
Interesting information - Lieutenant m/sl Snyatkov V.G. while carrying out a task while crossing a mountain river, he stained his identity card, as a result of which the photograph came off and was lost. I wonder where they could ask for such a certificate? 
After Chukotka Snyatkov V.G. serves in military unit 06014, in the Chita region, railway crossing No. 76. It’s difficult to serve there, and I wanted to transfer or quit. But V.G. Snyatkov was not fired. They weren’t allowed to go into the reserves or go to school. 
I still saw those times when, for example, from the navy, people were fired for only two reasons - cadaveric spots or uterine prolapse. 
Apparently out of despair he wrote a letter to the deputy Supreme Council USSR to Marshal Soviet Union Comrade Malinovsky. The authorities were alarmed and scared! 
Snyatkov V.G. serves as a senior paramedic of the Medical Department of the Higher Attestation Academy (?), where he received a service reference for admission to the academy. I thought that we were talking about the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy. 
But for some reason Snyatkov V.G. ended up at the Leningrad Military Academy of Communications. Where he received a medal for impeccable service, 2nd degree. 
And now at the Military Academy of Communications Snyatkov V.G. receives another rank - captain, but for some reason his military specialty is not medical. Apparently, there were no captain positions in the medical service in the VAS.
Today we will talk about how the system of military medical care of the Red Army was structured during the years
During the four years of war, military doctors returned more than 17 million wounded and sick to duty. To imagine the scale of this feat, it is enough to say that the average strength of the Red Army in 1941-1945 was about 5 million people, which means that, thanks to the efforts of military medicine, three Red Armies returned to the troops! These efforts did not go unnoticed: during the war years, 44 medical workers were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union and 285 doctors were awarded the Order of Lenin. And in total during the Great Patriotic War Over 115 thousand employees of the military medical care system of the Red Army, which was quite complex in its structure, were awarded orders and medals.

Help, sister!
By the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the system of field medical care of the Red Army had undergone several transformations, determined by the experience of those wars and military conflicts that it fought after the end. For example, the same medical battalion, or medical battalion, appeared only in 1935, replacing the three detachments of different medical profiles that existed in the divisions. Or, for example, mobile divisional hospitals - they did not exist during the conflict on, they appeared during.
In fact, the entire medical care system of the Red Army during the war can be divided into four elements: the primary medical base in units and formations, the hospital base of the army rear, the hospital base of the front rear and the hospital base of the country's rear. And the medical battalions, like the sanitary instructors, belonged to the primary medical base. But primary does not mean helpless! As the best military doctors have repeatedly noted, it was these units that had the main task of the Red Army medical service - sorting the wounded coming from the battlefield and providing them with first aid.
Source: smolbattle.ru
The wounded Red Army soldier received the very first aid from the soldiers of the medical department. There were five of them out of eight dozen soldiers and officers of an ordinary rifle company. Initially, the staff of the medical department relied on only one pistol, which was used by the squad commander, usually with the rank of sergeant. Only during the war did all orderlies and nurses (the share of women in this level of the medical service was 40%) receive personal weapons.
But the medical department could provide only the most necessary and simple first aid to wounded comrades, since the only medical equipment at its disposal was the bags of the medical instructor (also the squad commander) and orderlies, more often than not, nurses. However, nothing more was required from the company medics: their main task was to organize the evacuation of the wounded. Having discovered wounded soldiers, the Red Army soldiers of the medical company were obliged to assess the type of injury and the degree of its severity, provide first aid and pull them from the front line to the rear of the company, where, according to the regulations, the so-called “nests of the wounded” were to be prepared. And after this, the medical department had to call porters and ambulance transport so that the wounded would be transported to the battalion medical center as quickly as possible.
Source: smolbattle.ru
The responsibilities of the battalion's medical platoon, which consisted of seven soldiers - three medical instructors and four orderlies - under the command of a military paramedic officer, were approximately the same. Their medical equipment was wider than that of the medical department, but not by much, since the task remained the same: as quickly as possible to send the wounded to the nearest rear, where they could provide him with first aid. And this was done by the regimental medical station (RPM), which was deployed at a distance of two to five kilometers from the forward medical company of the regiment. There were already real doctors here - four officers (including the senior regiment doctor), as well as eleven paramedics and four dozen medical instructors and orderlies.
We are being taken to the medical battalion...
It was at the regimental medical posts that the primary sorting of the wounded took place according to the severity of the wounds and their type. The further path of the Red Army soldiers and officers who ended up here depended on this. Those who received the lightest wounds did not have to go even deeper to the rear; they received first aid and returned to their units. Those who required qualified medical care, most often surgical, had to travel further, to the same medical battalion - the last and most probably the main link of the primary medical base of the Red Army.

It was no coincidence that the medical battalions were called the “main surgical”: it was here, in the divisional rear (and the regular medical battalion was part of the division), at the divisional medical station, that the wounded received qualified surgical care. According to post-war general data, almost three-quarters of all wounded were operated on at divisional medical posts!
However, the doctors of the medical battalion did not always have the opportunity to operate in the field. Often during an offensive, in which sanitary losses are always higher, only every sixth or seventh wounded of those who needed urgent surgical care was brought to the table. And the rest had to be sent further at the first opportunity, to the army rear, where mobile surgical field hospitals operated. And here, at the divisional medical post, 6-10 kilometers from the front line, only those who received minor injuries requiring hospital treatment within 10-12 days were detained for a short time. Such fighters ended up in teams of recovering lightly wounded people formed at each medical battalion, each of which numbered up to 100 people, and within half a month they returned to their units.

The special role of regimental medical posts and divisional medical battalions in the medical care system of the Red Army is also evidenced by the following fact: the effectiveness and organization of the army medical service was assessed by the time that passed from the moment of injury until the wounded person was admitted to the first aid station and to the medical battalion. In the first, the fighter was required to be delivered no later than six hours after being wounded, and in the second - within twelve hours. Within this time frame, all the wounded, without exception, had to reach the regimental and divisional doctors, and if this did not happen, then this was considered evidence of shortcomings in the system of organizing medical care on the battlefield. In general, military doctors believed that the best prognosis was provided by assistance provided to a wounded person in a medical battalion within six to eight hours after injury.
... And further to the rear
But the medical battalion was not and could not be a real hospital: its tasks did not include treating the wounded - only qualified assistance to them and triage, on which it depended on which hospital the soldiers would end up in in the end. And there could be many options here: if the doctors of the medical battalions had to deal with all types of injuries and diseases, then hospital care was provided according to medical specialization. And this was clearly manifested already at the second - army stage of the Red Army medical care system, that is, in field mobile hospitals.

For four long years, doctors, nurses, paramedics and medical instructors worked for days, often without sleep or food, to save as many people as possible. Risking their lives, they carried the wounded out from under fire; died, shielding other soldiers. Therefore, the stories discussed here are only a drop in the ocean of the daily, hourly feat of medical workers accomplished during the war.
Mikhailov Fedor Mikhailovich (May 30, 1898 - August 5, 1942)
Fyodor Mikhailov did not manage to be anything before the Great Patriotic War - as a farm laborer, as a cabin boy, as a deputy in the Kronstadt Soviet, and as a soldier during Civil War, and a radiologist, and the chief physician of the maternity hospital.
In 1941, he found himself surrounded, tried to cross the front line, but was unable to get over to the Soviet troops, so he returned to the city of Slavuta, where he had worked before, headed the regional hospital there and organized an underground organization to fight the fascists. The underground spread news about the progress of the fighting among the local population, printed leaflets, and organized sabotage. Wounded Soviet soldiers were hiding and being treated in the hospital.
Mikhailov was arrested in July 1942, following a denunciation. The doctor was interrogated for a long time, demanding to hand over the remaining participants in the anti-fascist resistance, but he remained steadfastly silent. Fyodor Mikhailovich was executed on the territory of his hospital. For his courage and heroism, he was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
Buyko Petr Mikhailovich (October 19, 1895 - October 15, 1943)
Pyotr Buiko began to master the profession of a doctor back in the First World War - he was a military paramedic at the front. In 1922 he graduated from Kiev medical school, by 1938 he was already a professor.
When the war began, he immediately volunteered and worked as a surgeon. After being seriously wounded, he was captured by the Germans, but released during a prisoner-of-war riot. Having recovered, he began working in the regional hospital in the city of Fastov, which by that time was occupied by enemies. Pretending to collaborate with the Nazis, he sabotaged the sending of people to forced labor in Germany, treated partisans, supplied them with medicine, and participated in underground work.
In June 1943, his activities were discovered, but Buiko, along with a group of other doctors, managed to escape, taking medicine and instruments from the hospital. By joining partisan detachment, he continued to treat the wounded, often making his way into villages if information came that someone needed medical help somewhere.
Pyotr Mikhailovich was arrested on October 13, severely tortured, trying to obtain information about the partisans and their contacts. The doctor was silent. Peasants from the village of Yaroshevka, where Buiko was kept, tried to organize his escape, but he refused, realizing that the Germans would carry out reprisals for this. The doctor and several other captured partisans were doused with gasoline and burned a day after their arrest.
Uspensky Vasily Vasilievich (December 20, 1881 - August 21, 1952)
As if striving to live in accordance with his surname, Vasily Uspensky managed to do a lot in his life. Having not yet formally completed his medical education, he had already visited Persia, where he fought an epidemic of cholera and typhoid, and Paris, where he worked at the Pasteur Institute. One of the first in the country, back in the early 20s, began to practice blood transfusions; operated on the heart and brain, performed oncological operations. He was awarded the degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1935 even without defending a dissertation.
He could not become a military doctor and save soldiers on the battlefield when the war began - back in 1937 he lost his leg due to an accident. But this could not stop the active doctor. Until November 1943, he was the chief physician at the regional hospital in the city of Kashin. Then he returned to Kalinin, where he had to leave due to the occupation, and again began to manage his surgical department. True, at first the hospital itself had to be restored almost from scratch - the Germans destroyed it, destroyed the entire medical library, and valuable surgical material.
But this was not enough for the doctor. In parallel with his main work, he organized and headed a children's hospital. More than three thousand sick, wounded, and crippled children, whom the partisans had taken from the German rear, were saved there. The work of the Russian doctor was known even abroad - representatives of the American Red Cross came to the Uspensky Children's Hospital, and the wife of the British Prime Minister Clementine Churchill spoke about it on the radio.
In 1944, Vasily Uspensky was awarded the title of Honored Doctor of the RSFSR and awarded the Order of Lenin.
Georgy Fedorovich Sinyakov (April 6, 1903 - February 7, 1978)
Having gone to the front on the second day of the war, surgeon Georgy Sinyakov was captured during the battles for Kyiv - he provided medical assistance to the surrounded soldiers until the last, and then it was too late to retreat.
Ended up in a concentration camp in Koustrin, Poland. Here he showed the Germans what a Russian man was capable of - exhausted, hungry, Sinyakov performed a complex, hours-long operation, standing barefoot on the cold ground. Even the Germans themselves began to secretly turn to the doctor for medical help.
Using his position, he saved many prisoners by faking their deaths. The surgeon announced that his patient had died; he was thrown into a ditch with other bodies, from where the soldier was already moving to his own. Among those who fled from the camp in this way was the pilot Anna Egorova, whom Sinyakov was leaving after being seriously wounded and then declared dead.
When a Jewish young man came to see him, the doctor hid his documents, called the patient a Russian name, cured him, and then imitated a sudden infection, from which the soldier “died.” After the war, Ilya Ehrenburg wrote to his savior that he replaced him as a father, brother and friend in the most terrible days.
When the Nazis abandoned the concentration camp due to the approach of Russian troops and wanted to shoot all the remaining prisoners, it was Georgy Fedorovich who managed to convince them not to do this. The doctor did not receive the title of hero because he was captured and collaborated with the Germans, but this does not detract from his work or the value of the lives he saved.
Ermolyeva Zinaida Vissarionovna (October 24, 1898 - December 2, 1974)
Fate battle of Stalingrad was largely determined by Zinaida Ermolyeva, the woman who stopped the cholera epidemic among Soviet soldiers. Reports that cholera had broken out in German units near Stalingrad began to arrive in the summer of 1942. The disease could easily have affected both our troops and the evacuated residents, and through them spread to other regions of the country. There was no way this could be allowed to happen, so a recognized expert on cholera, professor-microbiologist Zinaida Ermolyeva, was urgently sent to Stalingrad.
The bacteriophage she brought was not enough, and an additional batch of medicine could not be delivered to the combat zone. Then Zinaida Vissarionovna set up a laboratory for its production right in the besieged city - in one of the basements. She and her assistants vaccinated soldiers and civilians, serving thousands of people a day, went around houses looking for sick people, carried out sanitation work, took water samples, and examined people at evacuation centers. All this time, the professor remained in Stalingrad, around which the ring of encirclement was closing more and more tightly.
By the end of 1942, thanks to Ermolyeva’s efforts, the threat of the epidemic had passed, which she reported to Stalin. Only after this did the offensive begin Soviet troops, which ended in victory, turning the tide of the entire war.
For her invaluable contribution to the success of the decisive battle, Zinaida Vissarionovna was awarded the Order of Lenin and the Stalin Prize. The professor donated all the money she received to build a fighter plane.
