From September, we will launch a joint endoprosthetic program for citizens registered in the capital of the country, which provides funding for knee and hip joint replacement surgery with an artificial analog. Such a statement made today the Mayor of Tbilisi.

“An important part of the capital’s budget is taken up by social and medical programs, under which we help many people. This support will continue in the future as well. We have very important news for those who need endoprosthetics, which, you all will agree, is quite expensive. From September, we will launch a joint endoprosthetic program for citizens registered in the capital of the country, which provides funding for knee and hip joint replacement surgery with an artificial analog. The budget of the program for the current year will be half a million GEL, and 6000 GEL will be allocated to finance each citizen.

Within the scope of Tbilisi City Hall program, financing will be carried out through a voucher system. Accordingly, the beneficiary will have the opportunity to make a free choice in selecting a medical facility. All over the world thousands of people undergo joint replacement surgery, and this is the only opportunity for each of them to return to a full and active life. Our goal is to support these people and ease their financial burden”, - said Kakha Kaladze.
