The article discusses the issues of implementation of the constitutional right of citizens for free medical care in rural areas, enshrined in Article 41 of the Russian Constitution. The main problems and obstacles faced by residents of remote regions are analyzed, such as lack of medical equipment, shortage of qualified specialists and limitedaccess to high-quality medical services. The legal and organizational aspects determining the availability of free medicine in rural areas are studied. Particular attention is paid to the need for an integrated approach to solving the identified problems, including educational initiatives, increased funding for health care, and active involvement of local communities in the process of improving health care. The authors provide statistical data which clarify the relevance of the topic under consideration
