“We try to keep 1-2 coupons.” How private clinics are changing due to COVID

The CORONAVIRUS pandemic has forever changed both public and private medicine. New services related to covid and rehabilitation after it appear in commercial clinics. In the private HEALTH care of the Kaliningrad region, an increase in the number of patients and demand for services is recorded. What results of the year are considered the main representatives of the industry, RBC Kaliningrad understood.

According to the heads of private clinics, 2021 was more successful than 2020, since there was no strict quarantine. The easing of restrictions last year allowed medical centers to accept more patients than a year earlier and not interrupt work.

In the network of clinics "April", for example, according to the results of last year, an increase in the number of patients by 7% is noted.

“I heard that some colleagues, for example, in dentistry, consider 2021 not the most successful year. But this is more likely not due to a decrease in the need for the service, but for other reasons, ”says Denis Rozhnov, executive DIRECTOR of the April medical center.

The decline in the flow of customers and revenue was not recorded at the Armsmedica clinic either.
