He noted that they will continue to improve the efficiency of medical procurement.
"We have introduced changes that require medical institutions to purchase medicines and medical devices through the so-called electronic catalog. This has contributed to significant cost savings and accelerated procurement procedures. Today, we will adopt a resolution that will expand the list of medicines and medical devices that will be procured through such a catalog. These changes are important because they are about transparency and the efficient use of taxpayers' money," Shmyhal said.
