ArmInfo.A very small number of police officers use the hospital of the medical police department, since this hospital is located in Yerevan, and while policemen live throughout the country. On February 12, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan stated this from the rostrum of the parliament, commenting on the issue of closing this hospital.
He noted that, despite this, the amount required to service the hospital is very impressive: 800 million AMD. "Moreover, the majority of police officers who live in Yerevan still receive medical care not in this hospital, but in other medical institutions. The fact is that this hospital is not equipped with the necessary medical equipment. And since the police officers somehow practically do not receive medical care in this hospital, we decided to add the amount allocated for hospital services to the state order so that the staff of the structure could receive qualified medical care, "Pashinyan emphasized. As for how useful the hospital is during hostilities, the prime minister said: "It seems to me that during the April 2016 war, this hospital was not useful."
