In the capital, 291 polyclinic buildings were reconstructed according to the unified Moscow standard. This was announced on Wednesday, June 25, on the website of the Moscow City Hall.

Laboratories, physiotherapy and ophthalmology rooms have been modernized in polyclinics, modern medical equipment, electronic queues and air disinfection systems have been installed. Electricity supply has been improved, the surrounding areas have been landscaped, and conditions have been created for people with limited mobility, the Moscow City News Agency reports.

The renovated facilities already serve more than 8 million patients, and doctors have conducted over 140 million appointments, writes RT.

The premises are zoned to reduce queues, and waiting areas and rest rooms for staff are being set up. The program started in 2020 and will continue until the city's outpatient network is fully updated, Moscow 24 notes.
