THE FUNCTIONING OF THE DEPARTMENTS (PRIKAZ) OF PUBLIC CHARITY IN THE AREA OF MEDICINAL SUPPORT OF POPULATION
The organization of curative institutions and their medicinal support was one of the main tasks of the departments (prikaz) of public charity. With this purpose hospital pharmacies were organized as pharmacies with free trading of medicinals to population oriented both to supplying prikaz institutions with medicinals and returning of income from selling medicinals to citizen. The medicinal support of prikaz hospitals was strictly regulated and restricted by strict financial limits. So, the prikaz institutions had no significant success in development of free trade of medicinals.
