Healthcare reform: Over 8 mln Ukrainians already signed declarations with doctors
This data has been posted on the website of the electronic healthcare system E-Health.
In particular, since the beginning of the nationwide campaign, which is being implemented within the healthcare reform, 8 million 40 thousand 112 patients have signed declarations with primary care physicians - family doctors, therapists and pediatricians.
Also, as of June 12, 1,237 healthcare establishments and 21,695 primary care physicians have been registered in the E-Health system.
As Ukrinform reported, the nationwide campaign to select a primary care physician "Doctor for each family" was launched in Ukraine on April 2. Ukrainians have the opportunity to choose their doctor – a therapist, a pediatrician or a family doctor - regardless of the place of registration. To do this, Ukrainians need to come to the chosen specialist with documents and sign a declaration with him or her for the provision of primary health care services.
