“Logistics of the flow and the number of personnel involved also required new approaches, because the pulsating regime of admission in different regions did present new requirements,” Murashko said.
According to him, specialists who help to work out a unified system of medical care continue to work in ten Russian regions.
“Over the country in a very short period of time, more than 1.4 million specialists had to be retrained,” the Russian Minister of Health added.
He specified that both written and video instructions were used for this, as well as at the outpatient stage, technologies developed jointly with Rosstat.
