Instructions to the Government jointly with regional executive agencies concern, in part, financing of emergency medical care from regional budgets, attracting healthcare experts to work in rural areas and providing them with service housing, staffing for the healthcare system and assessing the needs in specific specialists, state assignment for higher medical education institutions and medical colleges and additional financing for them.
Recommendations were given to the highest officials in the Russian regions concerning, in part, the organisation in the Russian constituent entities of “hotlines” on the availability and quality of free medical assistance, elimination of existing disparities in pay for managers and key personnel at medical organisations, improving transport support for medical organisations and ensuring that the ambulance fleet meets Russia’s national automotive ambulance standards.
