People who have cancer will soon lose free medicine. The state program “Oncology” finished in 2016. In 2017 the patients were treated with the left medicine. This year they got 1 million 260 thousand UAN. For the region where there were almost 2500 new cases of cancer that is too little. When the medical institution is out of money the patients will have to pay for the treatment themselves.

The situation is better with “Chornobyl” patients. However, there also other problems except from medicine financing. The equipment is outdated, the building condition is terrible – it needs renovation. But there are no costs for it.
