The Health Minister reminded of the $2.7 million donation by the Red Cross for reforming the primary health care pilot project in Kraljevo. He announced that the same model will be applied in another eight health centres in Serbia. The introduction of software was financed by the European Agency for Reconstruction in the amount of €700,000, he said. This model should be introduced in all 160 health centres in Serbia in the forthcoming period, Milosavljevic concluded.
Brunner said that the results so far have been very good, adding that the agreement with the Bureau is the first phase in reforming the primary health care in Serbia.
