Council okays plan to set up Tallinn Hospital
After the completion of the new hospital complex the East Tallinn Central Hospital and the West Tallinn Central Hospital will merge to make up Tallinn Hospital.
The hospital will also offer significantly wider opportunities for day treatment and better meet the needs of rapidly developing medical rehabilitation, the explanatory text accompanying the order says. Optimal arrangement of support services is important both in medical treatment as well as in the management of facilities. The new hospital's emergency department must represent the absolute top in emergency medicine.
In September this year a 14-strong work group was set up to oversee the project of Tallinn Hospital.
The plan for the establishment of Tallinn Hospital sets out a timetable for conducting the feasibility study and cost-benefit analysis concerning the new hospital as well as their key points. It also examines the possibility to involve the Health Insurance Fund, EU structural funds and the state budget as finance providers.
