The Ministry of Health wants to allow caregivers to treat diabetes and hypertension via the Internet The Ministry of Health has proposed allowing remote monitoring of patients with hypertension and diabetes. The changes are included in the draft of the new decree for the provision of therapeutic assistance to adults. It is scheduled to enter into force on January 1, 2027. Clinics will be able to use devices with remote transmission of medical data. Their number will depend on the number of patients who need such monitoring. Caregivers will be able to refer patients to specialist specialists, including cardiologists and endocrinologists, and then continue treatment according to their recommendations. It will be possible to open full-fledged treatment rooms in sparsely populated settlements that are difficult to reach, regardless of the number of residents. The staff of doctors and nurses will be fully maintained. The cabinets will be equipped with automatic and semi-automatic tonometers along with mechanical blood pressure monitors with a bulb and a telephone. Now the standard requires a mechanical device, although automatic sphygmomanometers are already in practice. During testing, this may be considered a violation. Earlier, the head of the Ministry of Health, Mikhail Murshko, announced the need to reduce the consumption of medical resources, since the budget can hardly cope with the growing number of chronic patients.
