Bashkiria to receive federal funds for primary health care

Bashkiria may receive federal funds to continue modernizing its primary healthcare. Shortly, the Russian Ministry of Health is expected to make a final decision on allocating subsidies to the regions, the Head of the Republic said at an operational meeting of the government.

"We are waiting for the final decision of the Russian Ministry of Health to open funding for further modernization of the primary health care. This is also a substantial amount of work and a considerable sum of money. We will need to implement and build everything efficiently and quickly. Therefore, we are preparing for a lot of work," said Radiy Khabirov.

The Head of Bashkiria has repeatedly declared the development of primary medicine a priority task for the authorities. In general, last year alone, major repairs were completed in nine facilities, 135 modular structures were installed, and more than 4,000 units of medical equipment, as well as 206 vehicles, were delivered in the region. The commissioning of six clinics, major repairs of nine facilities, and the arrangement of 134 modular structures are planned for 2025. This year, they are expected to purchase over 4.6 thousand units of medical equipment and 99 light ambulances.
