“Work on development of health care has to be certainly continued”, – the head of state declared. In his opinion, it is necessary to continue structural reforms, “to get rid of inefficient expenses, to optimize a network of hospitals and policlinics, at the expense of it to provide the further growth of salaries of medical workers, and the main thing, to increase quality of medical care”. However by optimization of a network of the budgetary medical institutions the verified, reasonable decisions, continuous and frank dialogue with citizens are necessary “, but the analysis has to be, eventually, sensible”.
