From January 1, 2024, state health insurance mechanisms will be gradually introduced in medical institutions in Tashkent. This is provided for by the presidential decree “On measures for the high-quality and timely implementation of the Strategy “Uzbekistan – 2030” in 2023”.
Health insurance provides for the introduction of a state-guaranteed volume of free medical services and a list of medicines for groups of diseases.
In addition, work to provide persons with disabilities with prosthetic, orthopedic, rehabilitation and medicines will be organized on the basis of a “voucher” system.
At the same time, persons with disabilities are given the opportunity to purchase goods and services from suppliers chosen by them, the costs of which are covered by the state budget.
