At the next meeting of the standing commission of the Volyn Oblast Council on human health, protection of motherhood and childhood, among other issues, the people's elected representatives considered the matter of facilitating the statutory activity of the "Volyn Oblast Hospital Fund." The deputies approved the text of an appeal to the Ministry of Health of Ukraine and other interested state authorities regarding the development of a regulatory legal act that would regulate the status and activity of such public organizations. They propose to include provisions defining the funds of hospital funds as an alternative source of healthcare financing, as well as to mandatorily create a unified database of members of the "Hospital Fund," which will enable its members to receive medical care in all regions of Ukraine. According to the Volyn deputies, membership in the "Hospital Fund" is an opportunity to receive accessible, inexpensive and quality medical care. Incidentally, the monthly membership fees amount to 5 hryvnias.
