To move forward the 2007-2012 optimalization program of the health
system in the provinces, the number of hospitals will be reduced
by five, and the number of polyclinics by 30, leaving just eight
specialized dispatch centers and 13 health center stations in an area
covering around 80,000 kilometers. This was informed by the ministry
of regional affairs.
According to the optimalization program, the work of the hospitals
and polyclinics that both carry out will be unified. In accordance
with the program, the work of village doctors will be separated from
that of polyclinics, and offices for family doctors will be created,
ensuring the improvement of local health care.
For now the program is in the preliminary stages. We note that at a
recent meeting with provincial governors, vice-prime minister Hovik
Aprahamyan ordered the work completed by September 25 and to begin
construction work by October 1. We remind that the decision to enact
the health optimalization program was made by the government just
last year.
