The government made a decision to transfer the property of the medical institution to the sphere of management of the Ministry of Health.
It is planned that a university hospital will be created on the basis of the Lviv Railway Clinical Hospital. It will receive funding for the provided medical services under the medical guarantee program, so it will have a stable financial base for providing high-quality medical care and training medical specialists.
“The University Hospital of the Lviv National Medical University named after Danylo Halytskyi will be able to provide a high level of practical training of students and interns, improve the skills of practicing doctors, nurses and other specialists in the field of health care, and preserve the professional skills of teachers. The university hospital will become a platform for the introduction of modern diagnostic and treatment technologies and the involvement of the best, including highly specialized specialists, in the provision of medical care to patients as a guarantee of its high quality,” said Health Minister Viktor Lyashko.
The creation of powerful university hospitals is a key step towards current and post-war reconstruction, improving the quality of medical education and medical care in Ukraine. The network of such institutions will contribute to attracting investments in the development of medical infrastructure, increasing the prestige of the work of doctors. This, in turn, will become a reliable basis for social and economic development, improving the overall attractiveness of cities and regions of Ukraine.
