KYIV - "Ukraine has obtained a clinical and diagnostic center of the 21st century," said President Leonid Kuchma during the opening ceremony at the Health Center for the Aged on July 6. The center, which is affiliated with the Academy of Medical Sciences, was created with the participation and financial support of the German-based company Siemens. The equipment, worth 37.3 million hrv, installed at the center can handle the most complicated cases. As of today, the center has examined over 3,000 patients. Currently, Ukraine has 11 million pensioners.
