According to Zurab Azarashvili, funding for the services that were most in demand in the referral program in recent years will be added to universal healthcare.

Consequently, by adding the most in-demand over the years services to universal healthcare program, many medical services will become much more accessible to our citizens. There are a lot of such services. Therefore, we will discuss, in addition, which of them should be included in the universal healthcare program, "- stated Zurab Azarashvili.
