Since the end of February, Adonis Medical Group has not stopped working, and is currently resuming the work of clinics, Adonis general director Vitaliy Hyrin told Interfax-Ukraine.
He said that during this time the clinic branches in Podil and Sofiyivska Borschahivka, as well as emergency ambulances, worked around the clock.
In addition, from April 8, the maternity hospital of the network resumed work on the left bank.
“On May 9, we plan to open a maternity hospital on the right bank at the Shalimov branch. Currently, all branches are operating, except for the maternity hospital in Buzova, which was significantly damaged by shelling, as well as the branch in Bucha,” he said.
Hyrin noted a significant increase in the number of requests for medical help in recent years.
“In early March, there was a strong decline, but from mid-March and in April, the number of visits to Adonis clinics increased by 2.5 times and continues to grow,” he said.
According to Hyrin, the main specialties for patients are gynecology, pregnancy management, childbirth, prenatal and general ultrasound, sampling, pediatrics and therapy.
He also said that a significant number of Adonis patients are not located in Kyiv and are being consulted online.
Adonis is a network of private medical centers for adults and children founded over 20 years ago. It includes 12 branches in Kyiv and the region, including two own maternity hospitals and a stem cell laboratory.
In the branches of the clinic, doctors treat patients in 66 medical specialties.
The medical group of companies Adonis has not stopped the work of Kyiv clinics since the beginning of hostilities, and has resumed elective pediatric surgery at a clinic in Shalimov Street, the medical network told the Interfax-Ukraine agency.
“Adonis did not stop work in Shalimov Street during the period of hostilities. We switched to the format of a military field hospital. We provide assistance around the clock to the wounded and the civilian population,” Olena Mukhina, the deputy medical director of the medical group, said.
According to her, the clinic in Shalimov Street “was not originally intended for military needs, but we decided to reformat it.”
Mukhina noted that the clinic, having three specialties working around the clock – obstetrics and gynecology, pediatric surgery, anesthesiology, maximally covers the needs of the civilian population.
“Even births in emergency conditions were taken, not being a maternity hospital in fact,” she said.
Mukhina said that the Shalimov clinic plans to resume consultations with an endocrinologist in the near future.
“Requests for elective surgeries have declined, but there are,” she said.
In turn, the director of the Adonis branch in Spaska Street, Kyrylo Kretov, also noted that due to the war, the number of scheduled operations has decreased.
“The clinic in Spaska did not stop its work. We provide emergency care to wounded soldiers and civilians. We carry out planned operations: general surgery, gynecology, orthopedics-traumatology, proctology. We conduct outpatient appointments,” he said.
Around 1,000 clinics have increased financing from the central bank under phase two of the healthcare reform, acting Head of the National Health Service of Ukraine Oksana Movchan has said. “About 1,000 medical institutions received more money from the central budget under contracts with the National Health Service, some of them by 70%, some by 5%, some by 50%,” she said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
She said that medical institutions have two sources of financing – the central budget and the local one.
“The National Health Service manages the money of the central budget. Previously, it was a healthcare subvention, but now it is a healthcare guarantee program. In 2020, more money was allocated from the central budget for the healthcare guarantee program,” she said.
At the same time, according to her, about 600 medical institutions for various reasons received less money from the central budget.
