The article proves that it is impossible to achieve a significant increase in the salary of medical personnel within the existing system of healthcare financing of the Russian Federation, namely, in accordance with the “may” Decrees of 2012 by V. V. Putin, to bring the salary of doctors to a level twice higher than the average for the region by 2018. It is proved that to achieve the necessary results in terms of increasing doctors’ salaries and motivating citizens to increase labor productivity and a healthy lifestyle, it is necessary to transfer the system of healthcare financing within the framework of obligatory medical insurance to medical savings accounts.

When the Court in Tinker v. Des Moines famously declared that students do not “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate,” everyone understood that the gate was the entrance to a public school, funded by state tax dollars and operated by state officials. No one on the Court had yet contemplated what might happen to those students’ rights if the gate accessed a private school and public funds were used to buy that entry. Publicly funded subsidies for private education have evolved considerably since the Court heard Tinker and now parents in many states may use public funds to choose the school for their child via voucher programs, tax credit scholarship programs, and education savings accounts. But what impact does such a choice have on the rights students typically enjoy in schools? This chapter explores that question and explains that even though voucher and voucher-like programs like tax credit scholarship programs and education savings accounts are publicly funded, the rights afforded to children when they enroll in a private school through such a program do not mirror those enjoyed in public school settings. In fact, when parents exercise a voucher, they effectively trade constitutional protections for contractual obligations. That trade has significant impacts on the claims that may be brought should concern arise over issues related to students’ rights to freedom of speech, freedom of religion, or due process.
