Among them are the latest medical complexes, including the Moscow Multidisciplinary Clinical Center (MMCC) Kommunarka, Infectious Diseases Clinical Hospital No. 1, six flagship centers based at the largest multidisciplinary hospitals (V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital (GKB), N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute (RI) of Emergency Care, O.M. Filatov City Clinical Hospital No. 15, S.P. Botkin Moscow Multidisciplinary Scientific and Clinical Center (MMSCC), N.I. Pirogov City Clinical Hospital No. 1, V.M. Buyanov City Clinical Hospital), A.S. Loginov Moscow Clinical Research Center (MCRC), a new multidisciplinary complex of the St. Vladimir Children's City Clinical Hospital (DGKB), and the traumatology and orthopedic building of G.M. Savelyeva.
A complete reconstruction of the admission departments of adult and children's hospitals was carried out, including at the M.P. Konchalovsky City Clinical Hospital, V.P. Demikhov City Clinical Hospital, City Clinical Hospital No. 24, City Clinical Hospital No. 29 named after N.E. Bauman, City Clinical Hospital named after M.E. Zhadkevich, City Clinical Hospital named after F.I. Inozemtsev, Children's City Clinical Hospital named after Z.A.

Speransky and the Research Institute of Emergency Children's Surgery and Traumatology.
Construction is underway on outpatient and inpatient and surgical intensive care units for Moscow City Oncology Hospital No. 62 in Skolkovo.
Construction and reconstruction work continues on the buildings of the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute of Emergency Care, the V.P. Demikhov City Clinical Hospital, the Morozov Children's City Clinical Hospital, the Moscow Clinical Research Center "Hospital 52," and other hospitals.
Sobyanin: Modernization of two buildings of the Veresaev City Clinical Hospital will be completed this yearMoscow Mayor: 15 medical facilities will be modernized in the capital in 2025Sobyanin: Reconstruction of three buildings of the Loginov Moscow Scientific Center will be completed in 2026
As part of the modernization program, city hospitals are being equipped with the latest equipment, including X-ray machines, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, mammography machines, angiography machines, ultrasound machines, and much more. This allows doctors to use modern diagnostic and treatment methods.
Today, approximately 80 percent of surgical interventions are performed using minimally invasive methods, which has significantly reduced patient recovery times after surgery.
The volume of high-tech medical care has increased almost sixfold – from 33.4 thousand operations in 2010 to more than 192 thousand in 2024.
For over 10 years, Moscow has been digitally transforming its healthcare system, linking electronic services and most of the city's medical facilities into a single digital network. The transition to a digital environment, the elimination of paperwork, and the introduction of various services in multidisciplinary hospitals free up medical staff time for patient care, improve the quality and speed of care, and allow all participants in the treatment process to access patient data online 24/7.
Emergency service
In April 2025, with the opening of the flagship center of the V.M. Buyanov City Clinical Hospital, the emergency care framework was completed. Today, it includes six modern flagship centers based at Moscow's largest multidisciplinary clinics. In addition to the V.M. Buyanov City Clinical Hospital, these include the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital, the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute of Emergency Care, the O.M. Filatov City Clinical Hospital No. 15, the S.P. Botkin Moscow Medical Scientific and Clinical Center, and the N.I. Pirogov City Clinical Hospital No. 1, as well as the emergency departments of city hospitals.
Over 10,000 units of cutting-edge medical equipment have been installed at our flagship centers, and approximately 60 operating rooms have been deployed, including high-tech hybrid operating rooms unique in Russia. Mobile medical equipment, including expert-grade equipment, has been installed in hospital emergency departments.
Thanks to the implementation of the new standard, the average speed of emergency care has increased by 50 percent over the past few years. Last year alone, approximately 370,000 people received emergency care at flagship centers.
Children's hospitals
In October 2017, the Moscow Government, in collaboration with the Russian Ministry of Health, completed construction of a new building for the Morozov Children's City Clinical Hospital. Most of the treatment and diagnostic departments were transferred to this building, equipped with modern equipment, allowing for the phased reconstruction, renovation, and modernization of other hospital buildings, including the historic ones. In October 2022, the pediatric building was reopened after renovation. In May 2025, renovations to Building No. 17, which now houses a rapid outpatient surgery center, were completed. Work on the comprehensive modernization of the hospital's other medical buildings continues.
A perinatal center, a children's building, and a children's infectious diseases building were built and opened as part of the Kommunarka MMCC.
On September 13, the new hospital accepted its first patients. multidisciplinary complex of the children's city clinical hospital of St. VladimirIt houses 20 departments, including the hospital's leading units—maxillofacial and thoracic surgery, superficial vascular surgery, neurosurgery, trauma and orthopedics, uroandrology, and others. The transfusion department is also located here.
In addition, the complex houses a unique center for gravitational blood surgery and hemodialysis, which will allow the use of renal replacement therapy methods for the treatment of newborns and children up to 18 years of age.
The complex will house clinical diagnostic, bacteriological, and pathological laboratories, which will significantly expand the range of tests required for diagnosis and selection of optimal patient treatment strategies.
In May, six new hospitals began operating on the premises of the largest multidisciplinary hospitals. specialized centers treatments for young patients with chronic heart and gastrointestinal diseases. These include:
— Morozov Children's City Clinical Hospital — a center for cardiac surgery (congenital and acquired heart defects, heart rhythm disturbances) and a center for the treatment of inflammatory bowel and liver diseases;
— Z.A. Bashlyaeva Children's City Clinical Hospital is a center for the treatment of cardiac diseases (pulmonary hypertension, cardiomyopathy, familial forms of hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia and hyperchylomicronemia) and a center for the treatment of celiac disease (an autoimmune disease predominantly localized in the small intestine);
— N.F. Filatov Children's City Clinical Hospital is a center for cardiac surgery (congenital and acquired heart defects) and a center for the treatment of diseases of the hepatobiliary system and short bowel syndrome.
A modern, rapid outpatient surgery center for children has opened at Morozov Hospital. Pilot early intervention centers have been launched at the largest hospitals—Z.A. Bashlyaeva Children's City Clinical Hospital, Morozov Children's City Clinical Hospital, N.F. Filatov Children's City Clinical Hospital, and the Kommunarka Moscow Medical Center. These centers provide early intervention care for premature babies, babies with low birth weight, or those who have experienced critical conditions in the neonatal period, during their first year of life, and, if necessary, for up to three years.
Plans for the coming years include the construction of a new multidisciplinary children's hospital.

Infectious Disease Service
A comprehensive modernization of Moscow's infectious disease service has been completed, resulting in the ability to:
— organize the work of admission departments that ensure the isolation of patients from the moment of admission to the hospital; during treatment, they are placed in modern Meltzer boxes or boxed wards (which replaced general-type wards);
— create our own laboratories at infectious disease hospitals, which will allow for prompt diagnosis and the prescription of appropriate treatment;
— equip operating and diagnostic services with new equipment, including MRI and CT, which will eliminate the need to transport infectious patients to other hospitals for examinations and operations;
— provide patients with comfortable conditions when placed in separate rooms equipped with bathrooms.
Between 2018 and 2022, several departments of Infectious Diseases Clinical Hospital (ICH) No. 2 were renovated and upgraded to provide treatment for adult patients. In December 2023, a new complex at ICH No. 1 (63 Volokolamskoe Shosse) opened—a leader among infectious disease hospitals in Russia in terms of treatment and diagnostic capabilities.
Oncology service
In 2019, Sergei Sobyanin approved a new standard of oncology care for Moscow residents. Its implementation has significantly accelerated the treatment process, simplified it for patients, and achieved higher-quality results. For example, the detection of malignant tumors at early stages increased from 62.3 percent in 2019 to 67.7 percent in 2024, and the number of patients monitored for more than five years from diagnosis increased from 55.6 percent to 60 percent.
At the same time, the mortality rate for cancer patients in the first year of diagnosis decreased from 17 percent in 2019 to 11.5 percent in 2024.
Under the new standard, five multidisciplinary oncology centers (a clinic, a pathology laboratory, and outpatient oncology care centers) were established at the city's largest hospitals. They offer a full range of clinical services: diagnostics, surgical treatment, drug therapy, follow-up care, and other services. Each center covers the population of one or two administrative districts of Moscow.
All stages of specialized care—examination, treatment, and patient follow-up—are performed within a single medical facility. This reduces diagnosis time, improves accuracy, and allows for faster treatment initiation.
Oncology care algorithms, or patient pathways, have been developed. They provide a seamless patient routing system from outpatient clinics to outpatient oncology care centers and cover all stages—from suspected malignancy to lifelong monitoring.
Oncology infrastructure is being developed, buildings are being renovated and constructed that provide comfort and a high level of care.
In particular, new outpatient oncology care centers with a full range of diagnostic and treatment capabilities have opened after major renovations. These include the Central Outpatient Cancer Center of the S.P. Botkin Moscow Multidisciplinary Scientific and Clinical Center, the Kommunarka Moscow Medical and Clinical Center, Oncology Center No. 1 of the S.S. Yudin City Clinical Hospital, and the oncosurgical building of Oncology Center No. 1 of the S.S. Yudin City Clinical Hospital. Endoscopy centers have also begun operations.
In August 2023, the new treatment and diagnostic complex at the A.S. Loginov Moscow State Cancer Research Center welcomed its first patients, and in September 2024, the radiation therapy building at the Kommunarka Moscow Medical Cancer Center opened. As a result, the overall volume of oncology care nearly doubled.
Construction continues on the outpatient and inpatient and surgical intensive care units of Moscow City Oncology Hospital No. 62, which will have diagnostic and treatment capabilities comparable to those of leading global clinics.

Infarction and stroke networks
To provide high-quality and timely care for the treatment of vascular accidents, unified heart attack (19 hospitals) and stroke (13 hospitals for adults and one for children) networks have been created at multidisciplinary hospitals evenly distributed throughout the city.
As a result, the number of saved patients with myocardial infarction more than doubled, mortality from stroke decreased by 15 percent, and disability by 35 percent.
Modern equipment allows for the most effective and minimally invasive treatment methods. In many cases, open heart surgery is unnecessary. Thanks to angiography, more than 90 percent of patients with large-focal infarction undergo primary angioplasty and vascular stenting, significantly reducing hospital mortality and shortening the postoperative recovery period from several weeks to two to three days.
Moscow's heart attack network comprises 19 hospitals.Moscow doctors have created an AI system for stroke diagnosis, according to Sergei Sobyanin.
Obstetrics and gynecology service
Eleven women's health centers have opened within city hospitals, operating under the new standard of outpatient obstetric and gynecological care. These centers provide women with lifelong specialized medical care.
The new standard is based on comprehensive care for women's health and the comfort of receiving specialized treatment. It includes a full range of services—from consultations and examinations to pregnancy support—all within a single facility (women's health center, maternity hospital or perinatal center, and gynecology department of a multidisciplinary hospital).
The creation of five more women's health centers is planned to be completed by the end of 2025.
The number of women's health centers in Moscow has grown to 11, according to Sobyanin.Sobyanin: The creation of five women's health centers is planned to be completed this year.
