"The main channel of communication and information consumption for people of generation Z is mobile phone. They do not perceive information that comes through other communication channels. That is why we are launching, together with colleagues from the Ministry of Digital Affairs, a mobile application in which services related to recording a doctor's appointment and calling a doctor at home will be finalized and improved. The application will automatically load the results of tests and medical appointments, "said Pugachev.
