How to obtain a 086/U certificate
Purchasing a 086/U certificate is strictly illegal. Obtaining such a document without an official medical examination is illegal and carries serious consequences. If a counterfeit form ends up on the desk of a company's management or the administration of an educational institution, reasonable doubts about its legitimacy will arise. To obtain a 086/U certificate, you must undergo a special medical examination.
Steps for obtaining certificate 086/U
The procedure for obtaining Certificate 086/U at clinics and medical centers includes the following steps:
- Preparation. To begin the process, contact a medical facility and schedule a convenient appointment. It is important to have all necessary documents with you.
- Medical Examination. The consultation begins with a general examination by a pediatrician or general practitioner, depending on the age of the applicant. This is followed by an examination by specialized specialists.
- Completion of the Procedure. After completing the diagnostics, the medical commission issues an officially issued certificate.
Only licensed state hospitals and commercial medical institutions have the right to issue such documents.
Required documents for registration
To successfully pass the medical examination and obtain the necessary certificate for admission to a higher education institution, a student will need to present a number of important documents. First and foremost, this includes a Russian passport and a vaccination certificate.
It is also helpful to present any laboratory tests and diagnostic examinations previously performed. By providing a complete set of information, the prospective student will significantly speed up the process of obtaining the final medical report.
The medical examination process
Let's take a closer look at how examinations with some doctors are conducted to obtain a 086/U certificate:
- The therapist asks questions about your health, asking you to talk about your complaints, illnesses, and heredity. Then they measure blood pressure, listen to the heart and lungs with a stethoscope, and examine the skin and mucous membranes.
- An otolaryngologist (ENT) examines the ears, throat, and nose. First, the doctor asks you to open your mouth wide, shines a flashlight inside, listens to your breathing, and checks your hearing.
- Surgeon: This doctor's job is to assess the condition of your bones, joints, and soft tissues. They palpate your abdomen, back, and limbs, checking joint mobility, examining your back, and feeling your neck and abdomen for tenderness. They often palpate your legs, especially your veins, to rule out varicose veins.
- A neurologist taps your knees, elbows, and feet with a hammer to check your reflexes, asks you to extend your arms forward, close your eyes, and touch your finger to the tip of your nose. Sometimes a neurologist will suggest drawing a circle or triangle to test motor coordination.
In addition to visiting doctors, you must undergo several diagnostic procedures. The results are attached to the certificate. After visiting all doctors and undergoing all procedures, you must return to your primary care physician. They will review the findings of all specialists, review your test results, and write a report.
How long does it take to obtain a certificate?
State healthcare services are free, but the document processing time can range from 7 to 10 business days. Private clinics, however, offer a significantly faster process—a single visit is sufficient. You pay for the professional medical services required to obtain the certificate, not the certificate itself.
Which doctors do I need to see to obtain certificate 086/U?
The first step in obtaining a medical certificate for university admission is a visit to a general practitioner. During the initial meeting, the specialist records the prospective student's personal information, including anthropometric measurements (height, weight), reviews their medical history in detail, listens to any complaints, and conducts a thorough examination.
The next step is issuing a recommendation for consultation with specialized medical specialists. Before obtaining a certificate, the candidate must undergo mandatory examination by a number of specialized specialists:
- Otolaryngologist
- Surgeon
- Ophthalmologist
- Neurologist
- Gynecologist (for women)
In addition to consultations with specialized specialists, the results of certain clinical tests and imaging examinations are mandatory, including:
- Clinical blood and urine tests
- Electrocardiogram
- Chest X-ray
If the patient has chronic illnesses, the general practitioner has the right to refer the patient for additional examination to doctors in specialized fields of healthcare who have previously treated the patient.
