Suppliers service and repair medical equipment if necessary throughout its entire life cycle.

Modernization of medical equipment in Moscow is ongoing. In just a few years, endoscopy and laparoscopy equipment has been completely upgraded. City hospitals have received almost 4,000 units of such equipment. Since 2022, more than 5,000 units have been purchased for the cardiology service of hospitals and clinics, and last year, surgical equipment was renewed.
