Increase in the aging population and lifestyle diseases in Russia have compelled the healthcare sector to revamp its medical service delivery system. The healthcare sector in Russia is thus focusing on providing sustainable and personalized healthcare to its citizens. It is also directing its efforts towards strengthening the primary healthcare services and developing preventive healthcare. In addition, the country is also aspiring to improve the quality of care and increase the availability of healthcare services throughout the country. Medical institutions in Russia are realizing the need for Healthcare IT applications for saving time, maintaining records, and providing efficient services. The growth of the Healthcare IT market over the years has been supported by the public sector through various initiatives, to construct an effective health system.
