Suspension of the License for Implementation of Medical, Pharmaceutical Activity in Administrative (Extrajudicial) Procedure

Abstract

The article is devoted to the consideration of the problems of administrative suspension of the license for medical and pharmaceutical activity. The article highlights that the law-maker has provided for the possibility of suspension of the license in administrative order if the activity of the licensee is suspended in general, as well as if there is a failure to comply with the order to eliminate an essential breach of the license under consideration. At the same time, the lack of by-laws and explicit instructions in the law concerning operation of such provisions in respect of licensees engaged in medical and pharmaceutical activities does not prevent application of mechanisms in question. The authors note that a wider application of the license suspension would be facilitated by the adoption of normative legal acts regulating the procedure for the application of administrative measures in the health sector.
