Russia has more physicians, hospitals, and healthcare workers than almost any other country in the world on a per capita basis, but since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the health of the Russian population has declined considerably as a result of social, economic, and lifestyle changes.
Meski Rusia memiliki jumlah dokter, rumah sakit, dan pekerja kesehatan lebih banyak daripada rata-rata negara lainnya, namun sejak bubarnya Uni Soviet, secara umum kesehatan penduduk negara ini turun akibat perubahan sosial, ekonomi, dan gaya hidup.
