In Nikolaev, the family of family doctor Galina Kolyanchikova, who died from the coronavirus (COVID-19), must receive monetary compensation.
This was announced on Saturday, December 12, by the Minister of Health, Maxim Stepanov. The official said that a new commission was created to clarify the circumstances of the doctor’s death.
“The decision not to pay the compensation was made by the members of the commission, who came to the conclusion that the doctor’s infection was not related to her professional activities. Representatives of the outpatient clinic where she worked, motivated by the fact that she contracted the infection from her husband, a surgeon, “she explained. …
Stepanov said that he was very outraged by this incident and it was decided to investigate the situation.
“We took this issue under control and started communicating with the local authorities. Employees of the State Labor Service, Social Security, epidemiologists, representatives of the city health department and the Primary Health Care Center attended the representatives of the commission. It turned out that some members of the commission had a personal conflict with the doctor. Subsequently, the Regional State Administration clarified all the circumstances. A new commission was created, which found that the doctor’s death was related to his professional activities. Then the family of the deceased doctor should receive compensation of around 1.5 million UAH, “the minister added.
Remember that in Nikolaev, officials refused to pay monetary compensation to the relatives of a family doctor who died from COVID-19.
