Introduction: the paper discusses the current problems of constitutional law concerning the provisions of the basic law of the CIS countries on health protection. The advantages and disadvantages of various formulations of the right to health protection are analyzed, and the question of its parties is raised. The purpose of the study is to consider the possibility of formulating a universal model of the right to health protection through the analysis of existing rights in the CIS countries. Methods: as the main one, the comparative legal method of scientific research is used to analyze and compare the constitutional provisions of the CIS countries. Results: based on the conducted research, the opinion on the possibility of identifying a universal model of the right to health protection is substantiated. The author’s classification of the right to medical care is given depending on the conditions of its provision. Conclusions: despite the fundamental similarity of the provisions of the constitutions of the CIS countries, they differ in a number of parameters: parties, the completeness of powers, and the identification of additional rights. It is noted that the right to health protection is most fully represented in the Constitution of this country. However, the existing wording could be supplemented with a guarantee of medical insurance and an indication of qualified medical care.
Key words: healthcare, right to health protection, medical care, Constitution, CIS.
