Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova and Health Minister Mikhail Murashko opened new medical facilities in four regions of the country via videoconference. During the event, heads of medical organizations and heads of federal subjects reported on the commissioning of the facilities.

"Today, we are opening new healthcare facilities via videoconferencing in four regions of our country. New clinics will open their doors for nearly 48,000 residents of the Voronezh Region, the Udmurt Republic, and the Republic of Bashkortostan, and in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, the Republican Clinical Hospital, serving the entire region, will receive a new admissions department. This is another contribution to achieving the national goal of 'preserving the population, improving health and well-being, and supporting families,' announced by the President," emphasized Tatyana Golikova.

She added that last year saw the completion of the national project "Healthcare," which has been modernizing primary healthcare throughout the country since 2021. "During this period, more than 12,000 facilities were built and renovated, medical organizations received over 221,000 units of new medical equipment, and over 20,000 vehicles were delivered to ensure the fastest possible medical care. I am confident that the clinics we are opening today will not only make care more accessible but will also expand opportunities for residents in terms of preventative care, providing additional opportunities for screenings and preventative examinations. Over the course of 2024, nearly 89 million people in our country received preventative examinations, and 77 million in the first 10 months of this year. This is a 3% increase compared to the same period last year," said Tatyana Golikova.

In addition, over the past period of this year, more than 985,000 employed citizens have undergone workplace screening, and more than 1.7 million people with risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases have been examined as part of dynamic monitoring, and individual healthy lifestyle programs have been developed for them.

By decision of the head of state, new national projects were launched this year. Healthcare development activities are included in three national projects: "Long and Active Life," "Family," and "New Health-Saving Technologies." The modernization of primary care continues in all regions until 2030. Three new clinics have been established as part of this program.

"Today, we are opening a new emergency department at the republican hospital in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic. Construction began in 2023 with regional funding. The federal project 'Improving Emergency Medical Care,' which is part of the national project 'Long and Active Life,' helped equip it with medical equipment. In total, at least 99 hospital emergency departments will be created across the country by 2030 as part of this federal project," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

Health Minister Mikhail Murashko noted that each facility represents a new lifesaving hub, a center for healthy living and prevention, and ensures access to high-quality medical care for thousands of people.

"In 2025, 683 new medical facilities, including modular ones, have already been commissioned across the country's regions and are providing medical care. Additionally, 1,381 medical facilities have been overhauled, outfitted, and equipped," the Minister of Health noted.

Such a large number of primary care medical organizations is fundamentally changing the landscape of medical care, added Mikhail Murashko.

"Convenience combined with information technologies such as electronic medical records, appointment scheduling, and much more make the work of medical personnel more comfortable," he noted.

As part of the event, new medical facilities were opened in 4 regions:

A new outpatient clinic has opened in the Republic of Bashkortostan at the Askinsky Central District Hospital. Designed to handle 250 visits per shift, it will serve over 17,000 residents of the region. The facility was built as part of the primary healthcare modernization program and is fully equipped with modern technology.

A children's clinic has opened in the Voronezh Region at the Bobrovskaya District Hospital, with a capacity of 150 visits per shift. It provides a wide range of medical care using modern equipment.

A new five-story outpatient clinic, designed to handle 500 visits per shift, has opened in Sarapul, Udmurt Republic. The facility will serve over 23,000 people and include diagnostic, treatment, and preventive care units, as well as an outpatient oncology center.

Russia's second inpatient emergency medical care unit has opened in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic following a major renovation. The unit is organized according to color zones, equipped with modern diagnostic equipment, and designed to handle high-volume workloads.

Document

Resolution of December 5, 2025 No. 1990

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree approving a list of target indicators for ensuring Russia's technological leadership, medium- and long-term technology development in economic sectors, as well as rules for calculating them and monitoring their achievement.

The main goal of the document is to create a unified system for assessing Russia's technological development to achieve national goals and implement the new federal law "On Technological Policy."

Target indicators for ensuring technological leadership characterize the development of high-tech products and the technologies necessary for their creation, and form the basis for assessing the effectiveness of Russia's technological policy.

The new resolution defines the country's level of technological independence and its level of technological superiority over foreign analogues in priority high-tech products using such indicators.

The achieved level of technological independence and technological superiority are designated as target indicators for the medium-term and long-term development of technologies in economic sectors.

Work to achieve target indicators will be carried out within the framework of national projects to ensure technological leadership, medium- and long-term technology development plans, projects to develop cross-cutting technologies, and innovative development programs for organizations with state participation.

Speaking about the decision made at a meeting on the implementation of technology policy held on December 15 at the Technopolis Moscow SEZ, Mikhail Mishustin noted that the comprehensive system for assessing technological development will demonstrate the progress of the development of high-tech solutions and products based on domestic technologies, determine the country's level of independence in priority developments, and characterize our level of leadership when compared with foreign counterparts. The metrics approved by the resolution will be integrated into national projects and will serve as benchmarks for bringing product performance up to the best international standards.
