Trofimov, for the first time in the country, the Main Department of research institutes and coordination of scientific research was established, the purpose of which was to ensure a scientific breakthrough in medicine through the development and implementation of innovative methods. The experience of joint work of health authorities, medical universities, and research institutions began to accumulate. It allowed solving problems of improving the quality of medical care according to united comprehensive plans. The material and technical base for public health protection was developed. During the tenth five-year plan alone, 20 large multi-specialty hospitals were built for 600-1200 beds, 88 polyclinics for 750-1200 visits per shift, 80 maternity hospitals and departments for 8849 beds were put into operation, 24 women’s consultations for 1000 visits per shift, and 13 multi-specialty children’s hospitals.
