In addition, due to deregulation, support for exports and investment, the Cabinet hopes to achieve economic growth of 4-5% per year. The website “Today” figured out how to change the life of Ukrainians under the government’s strategy.

Health care: medicine will officially be paid

Currently hospitals receive funding for the beds. The bigger the hospital the more funds it receives from the budget. In the near future the Ministry of health is planning to rebuild the system on the principle of “the money will come for the patient.”

Every Ukrainian will be able to choose any therapist to sign a contract with him. The state will pay the doctor for one patient 210 hryvnia per year. Every doctor will be able to take on not more than two thousand patients and make for their hospital to 420 thousand hryvnias a year. Part of this amount will be used to pay the doctor, the rest of the hospital will be spent on maintenance.

“Funds for each patient will be transferred to the hospital where the attending physician, and the guide itself will appoint him a salary”, — says Deputy health Minister Pavlo Kovtonyuk.Some health services will remain free, but for others, the Ukrainians will have to pay in cash the hospital. Now the list of guaranteed free services is still under discussion. It will include a physical examination, some tests (blood, urine, feces, cholesterol test, etc.). Also, do not need to pay for the photo x-rays and ECG.

Emergency care will remain free, and for specialist will have to pay the tariffs. Prices will set one for the whole country. Part of this sum is compensated by the state, and the rest of the Ukrainians will have to pay from your pocket. Will remain privileged categories of the population who will have free access to specialised medical care.

In addition, in the framework of health reform appear of hospital districts. Each will be at least one General hospital.

Education: 12 years school

“We propose to move from a school where children are stuffed with mostly theoretical knowledge and school competences of the 21st century. These competencies include not only knowledge but also skills to apply them in practice”, – told the Minister of education Lilia Grinevich.

The result is graduates with a General education to get a profession. To learn students will be under the new program. After several months, the Ministry of education will develop a State standard for elementary school. It is expected that children will give more time for homework, assessments will not put the numbers, and figure stamps. In addition, teachers under this optional standard will be able to develop the curriculum.

By 2022, the Ministry will develop standards for basic school. There will be more items to choose from, and at the end of the ninth grade will have to pass external independent evaluation (UPE).

Land reform: land can be sold

The Verkhovna Rada prolonged the moratorium on sale of agricultural land until the end of 2017. Last year the head of the IMF mission Ron van Ore noted that the existing moratorium on the sale of land makes it impossible to fully develop the agricultural sector and the use of land as collateral for obtaining loans.

The government’s strategy 2020 also envisages the implementation of land reform. “W-we have to make you a quality land reform in the interests of Ukrainian citizens and our state. We need to stimulate the development of agriculture through various programs of support” – said Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman.
