Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko has named prosthetics as one of the main tasks of Ukrainian social policy and announced the launch of grants for manufacturers of bionic prostheses.
“Prosthetics is one of the main tasks in social policy today. Our task is to ensure that everyone who needs it, both military and civilian, receives a high-quality prosthesis on time,” Svyrydenko wrote on Facebook on Sunday morning.
She reported that last week she held meetings with rehabilitation specialists, manufacturers, and center directors. “We see that many people are forced to wait for prosthetics or face poor-quality care. Therefore, we have tasked the Ministry of Social Policy and the Ministry of Health with developing a clear plan to resolve these issues,” the head of government wrote.
Svyrydenko also visited the Ukrainian production facility Esper Bionics and called it “an example of technology that is truly changing lives.”
“We want this market to develop. We want to see more Ukrainian manufacturers. Therefore, the government plans to launch grants for bionic prostheses,” she said.
