In Ukraine, patients who have made a declaration with their family doctor can use a number of medical services in the Primary Medical Assistance Package free of charge. This applies to both municipal and private medical institutions, as well as photographers.
According to the National Health Service of Ukraine (NSAU), the primary care package includes: diagnosis and treatment: the most serious infectious and non -communicable diseases. Injuries, poisoning, pathological conditions. Laboratory studies: general blood and urine test. Determination of glucose and cholesterol in the blood. Carrying out fast tests for HIV, hepatitis and other infections. Instrumental diagnostics: electrocardiogram (ECG). Review of the condition of the lungs. Measurement of visual acuity. Overview of the external auditory canal and eardrum.
The NSAs explain that all these services can be provided free of charge, but the procedure for receiving them depends on the institution where the declaration is signed. For example, laboratory tests or ECGs may be planned for another date or conducted in specialized laboratories.
In addition to the improvement of services, the government is working to increase wages to family doctors. The budget for 2025 provides an increase in the capital rate - the amount paid for the service of one patient.
