Now, thanks to information posted on the Internet, every citizen liable for military service will be able to independently decipher his own diagnosis, which is made by members of the draft commission during a medical examination. To do this, it is enough to understand how the “schedule of illnesses” works, and also to have a reference book of medical terminology on hand for the correct interpretation of the diagnosis.
It is worth noting the fact that over time, the “disease schedule” undergoes certain changes, which leads to some misunderstandings. For example, depending on the year you received your military ID, the coding of the diagnosis may differ significantly.
Explanation of articles 1a and 1b
As of 2021, Article 1 contains a list of infectious diseases, diseases of viral and bacterial origin, as well as parasitic infections and diseases caused by arthropods. Such clarifications are extremely necessary, as previously Article 1b in the military ID indicated the diagnosis of debility or mental retardation.
This article has only two points:
- Article 1a. It is given to a conscript if he is diagnosed with a difficult-to-treat or incurable disease. Only based on the results of an in-depth laboratory examination of a conscript can he be assigned this article. If a conscript is assigned article 1a, then he is assigned fitness category B. That is, he will not serve, at least in peacetime.
- Article 1b. Implies a long-term nature of the disease. Often, with such a diagnosis, a young person receives a deferment to undergo a rehabilitation course. For this purpose, he is temporarily assigned category “G”. If such a diagnosis is revealed in a military personnel, he may be discharged. In other situations, he may be given a month's leave to improve his general condition. After successfully completing the course of treatment, the conscript is assigned fitness category “A” or “B” and he goes to serve. If the conscript’s condition has not improved, then he will be assigned fitness category “B” with article 1a.
Determining a diagnosis by its coding
When determining a diagnosis and assigning a particular category of suitability to a conscript, the draft commission uses a document called “Schedule of Diseases.” In fact, this document completely regulates the actions of members of the medical commission at the military registration and enlistment office.
When the legislative framework changed, the very meaning of the suitability categories did not undergo any adjustments.
- Category “A” is assigned to those conscripts who do not have any serious health problems, which allows them to fully serve in the army;
- In the same case, if, when examining a conscript, members of the commission discover some pathologies and diseases in him that do not create any special obstacles to compulsory military service, then the young man is assigned category “B”. With this category, a guy can be drafted into the army, but with some reservations and restrictions;
- If a conscript has diseases and disabilities that have a moderate negative impact on his life, then he will not join the army. Such conscripts receive category “B”. They remain liable for military service. During the period of mobilization, this category of citizens may be called up for service;
- If a young person has a disease that can be treated, then he receives a temporary reprieve to eliminate all health-related problems. Such guys are temporarily assigned category “G”. After the deferment, such guys undergo a second medical examination, as a result of which they are drafted into the army or are declared unfit for service;
- If a young man has a serious illness, he is completely exempt from conscription and loses the status of a person liable for military service, and also receives category “D”.
All diseases in the “Schedule of Diseases” are divided into separate groups. Each pathology concerns a specific body system or organ. It is also worth noting that each disease has an article number, which is indicated in the conscript’s diagnosis. To indicate different degrees of severity of the pathology, a letter is added to the digital designation.

Chapter 2 (Articles 17 - 64) Constitution of the Russian Federation
How to change article 1a or 1b
A repeated medical examination of a person liable for military service is permitted if there are compelling reasons to believe that there has been a change in his state of health and the diagnosis indicated on the man’s military ID. After the citizen is re-examined, the results of the previous medical examination will be automatically cancelled.
For this reason, if a person wants to change article 1a or 1b in his military ID, he will need to go to the military registration and enlistment office with a corresponding application requesting the appointment of a second medical commission. Based on its results, the man will receive a new fitness category in his military registration card.
Important! Changing the article will also entail a change in the eligibility category.
When can bailiffs resume enforcement proceedings?
Article 46 part 1 clause 4 is, of course, not a guarantee that enforcement proceedings have been terminated for a long period of time. The debtor will, of course, have a six-month break from the actions of the bailiff.
Why 6 months? The fact is that the executive legislation provides for the possibility for the claimant to contact the bailiff with an application for the resumption of collection after 6 months from the date of application of Art. 46 part 1 clause 4, but no later than 3 years.
As we said above, the legislator specifically defined this moratorium on collection for the debtor in order to give him the opportunity to improve his financial situation, start earning money and acquiring property.
However, based on established practice, it can be stated that if initially no property was found in the debtor’s possession, the situation will remain the same in the coming years. These are the realities of life.

Results
The above facts explain the reason why Article 1 causes a lot of discussions and questions among the male population. If the presence of a diagnosis of an infectious disease does not in any way affect one’s position in society, then the diagnosis of debility radically changes a person’s life.
Despite the fact that draft dodgers previously often used this article to avoid serving in the army, its presence on a military ID has a negative impact on employment opportunities and obtaining a driver’s license.
Art. 46 part 1 clause 4 – consequences for the debtor
Article 46 part 1 clause 4 of the bailiffs for the person who lost the trial gives a period of respite and relief. For a while, financial requirements to him disappear and additional restrictions are lifted (travel ban, deprivation of rights).
Perhaps the legislator specifically came up with such article 46, part 1, clause 4, so that a person driven into a corner by debts could try to find a job, acquire property, and ultimately receive an inheritance.
That is, such an article is aimed, first of all, at supporting the person against whom enforcement proceedings are being carried out in order to change his financial situation in the long term.
How do citizens use Art. 46 part 1 part 4 – this is certainly an interesting question. Usually, such a respite is perceived by people as debt forgiveness, they forget about it. But even in this case, this is a plus for the debtor, because having forgotten about the debt, the person no longer behaves so carefully and shows his income.
More cautious citizens, having learned that the bailiffs applied Art. 46 part 1 clause 4, they understand that this will not last long and do not change their official financial situation.
