ArmInfo. In the near future, Armenia will receive from China 200 new vehicles for the ambulance brigades. On June 5, RA Minister of Health Arsen Torosyan stated at the hearings in the commissions of the National Assembly on the execution of the state budget of 2017.
According to him, with the acquisition of new technology, the question of the provision of ambulances will be fully resolved. Moreover, even a reserve is being formed, which will be used by rural outpatient clinics.
The minister noted that at present 70% of all calls of ambulance teams are not connected with hospitalization. In this context, it is planned to reform this sphere, which will save time and money of the state budget, and reduce the workload of the ambulance brigades.
