What are the facilities available to a student in case he falls sick?
A. The Russian Government has made it mandatory for foreign students to take a medical insurance policy to over the cost of treatment including medication in case of hospitalization for any ailment. The premium for such a policy varies between $ 100 to 150 per year. For normal or routine cases not requiring hospitalization, the student can consult doctors free of cost at the university hospitals, but the cost of medicines will have to be borne by the students.
