Moldova will benefit of a reimbursement in the amount of 900 thousand euros for the retroactive coverage of the expenses incurred by the health system in order to provide medical assistance to refugees from Ukraine. In this sense, the deputies ratified yesterday, October 6, during the plenary session, the Agreement between the Government of our country and the Development Bank of the Council of Europe, which grants this money.
The grant will be used by the Ministry of Health, through the National Medical Insurance Company, to finance the expenses, which had two components: medical assistance provided through medical institutions and medical assistance provided by mobile teams.
“In this way, we make sure that the country’s budget is helped by external partners in the efforts to help refugees and to reduce the negative effects on the socioeconomic situation related to this crisis”, mentioned the Minister of Health, Ala Nemerenco, in the plenary session of the Legislature.
