The State Agency for Compulsory Health Insurance has released statistics on medical services provided under the compulsory health insurance framework in 2023. These services were delivered by medical institutions managed by the Medical Territorial Units Management Union (TABIB).
Over 5 million citizens utilized healthcare services a total of 22.3 million times, accounting for 52% of the country’s population. State medical institutions provided 70.2 million services, with 86% in outpatient settings and 14% in inpatient care.
The top five medical institutions delivering the highest volume of services include:

Last year, 300,137 referrals were given to citizens. During January-November 2023, citizens who received referrals benefited from 155,361 medical services under compulsory health insurance at contracted medical institutions. Of these services, 2,857 were provided to children and 152,504 to adults.
