Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin in August 2024 allocated ₽12,5 billion to the Chelyabinsk region for the modernization of healthcare, including the purchase of medical equipment and the renewal of hospitals.

According to URA.RU, the funds will be used to implement a program for the modernization of primary health care, which includes the purchase of new medical equipment, major repairs and the construction of new health care facilities, as well as the renewal of medical transport. The Minister of Health of the Chelyabinsk Region, Yuri Semenov, said that within the framework of this program, regional hospitals have already received 1,412 units of new equipment, including mammographs, X-rays, fluorographs, spirographs, sterilizers and defibrillators.
