Five steps to obtaining a medical practice license for a private dental practitioner or dental institution

Abstract

The paper considers the keystones of obtaining a medical practice license by dentists of any specialties who want to begin the private medical practice in any organizational and legal form. To obtaining a license, a dentist must pass a certain preliminary stage: to choose organizational and legal form, to find necessary premises, equipment, and materials, to find qualified medical staff, get a sanitary-epidemiological inspection act, and to prepare documents for the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. At this stage, a future licensee faces some difficulties, because the regulatory requirements are often contradictory, and to process them you need to study a significant number of regulations. However, in case of careful preparation, obtaining a license for medical practice is a fairly simple process, if the future licensee considers all the requirements of applicable law in the preparatory stage.
