From March to September 2025, a man received illegal benefits in parts for influencing the decision-making of officials at several medical institutions in Rivne.

A medical professional from one of the dispensaries, and previously a doctor at the regional center for medical and social expertise, promised a client to "resolve the issue" of obtaining a disability group III for a heart disease for a period of 1 year for 3600 US dollars, leveraging his necessary connections.

The perpetrator was detained after receiving another tranche of 300 US dollars. Law enforcement conducted 17 authorized searches at his and his accomplices' locations, during which medical documentation, rough notes, and cash in various currencies were seized.

The circle of all individuals involved in this scheme is being established.
