Two opposite tendencies which were in society are shown in the article: on the one hand, the policy on suppression of the Tibetan medicine was pursued, on the other hand, there were supporters of integration of the Tibetan medicine into the developing system of the Soviet health care. The archives of the Buryat scientific committee are stored in funds of the Center of eastern manuscripts and xylographs of the IMBT of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. On the basis of documents from this archive, the role of Buruchkom in attempts to keep the Tibetan medicine is shown, the reasons of unsuccessful attempt of integration of traditional medicine into the Soviet health care system are analyzed.
