Its development is much affected by doctors of outpatient clinics, who provide timely and quality medical care to the population according to their specialty in the clinic and at home, as well as implement activities aimed at prevention and reduction of morbidity with temporary disability, occupational diseases and injuries. Significance of this study is determined by importance to study historical background related to the development and gradual formation of primary health care in Russia up to the present moment, organization of medical care at outpatient clinics and a gradual transition to the health insurance system.

Improvement of primary health care in Russia resulted in a valuable outcome that medical services are provided on the basis of the district territorial principle, which forms the basis for organizing primary health care at the outpatient level with the subsequent referrals to narrow specialty physicians. Due to the recent healthcare modernization program outpatient care facilities were equipped with modern innovative medical devices to ensure delivery of high quality primary health care.

Currently, in accordance with the State healthcare development program in the country a special attention is being paid to improvement of primary health care, its accessibility and quality. Historical background related to formation, development and reformation of the Russian primary health care is important for improving the entire healthcare system.
