Fresenius Medical Care will pay for the training of specialists and the construction of the center, Perm Territory will provide a plot, and the territorial health insurance fund will pay for the procedure. The press service of the manufacturer added to the publication that the place for construction by the end of October 2016 has not yet been chosen.

This project will benefit the company and the region, said Alexey Smirnov, general director of Fresenius NephroKea LLC.
