Pregnant women in Vladimir will avoid caesarean section, even if there are health reasons - all for the sake of saving the budget and increasing the demographic, write in the media.
Doctors will encourage women to give birth on their own, including during twin pregnancies, breech babies and uterine scars.
The goal is to increase the birth rate and save money, since after the operation the patient spends more time in the hospital, and her treatment is more expensive.
At the same time, more than half of obstetricians and gynecologists are missing in the region, maternity hospitals in small towns are closing, and about a thousand women leave for Moscow every year to give birth.
