Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov held a meeting with the leadership of the ministries of health, artificial intelligence and digital development, as well as representatives of domestic IT companies. The progress in the implementation of the instructions of the Head of State on the digitalization of the healthcare sector, given in the Address to the people of Kazakhstan “Fair Kazakhstan: law and order, economic growth, public optimism,” was considered.

Minister of Health Akmaral Alnazarova reported on the pace of work on the transition from 23 disparate systems to a single e-Densaulyq ecosystem. To date, over 21 thousand medical organizations, 221 thousand units of medical equipment and data of 257 thousand medical workers have been digitized. As a result of combining data and strengthening control, 400 thousand out-of-date patient records associated with 1.4 million prescriptions were excluded from the medical system, which made it possible to prevent costs of 31 billion tenge. Unreasonable consumption of medical services was reduced by 7.1%, or about 7 billion tenge, while the efficiency of error detection increased 3.5 times.

On behalf of the President, a Unified State Medical Information System is being created, which should unite all disparate private systems into one and become a single working tool for the doctor. 7 of the Ministry’s 12 systems have already been united: data is now entered once, documents are generated automatically. This made it possible to reduce the doctor’s time for entering information by 40%. The Unified Medical Data Repository combines information from 12 private medical information systems, registries and reference books and provides integration with more than 50 systems of government agencies. The data accumulated since 2012, starting from July 1 of this year, is used to pay for medical care based on automatic format-logical control.

According to the Ministry of Health, digital control revealed the lack of licenses to carry out medical activities in 38 medical organizations. Activities have been suspended for 27 of them. In addition, 2,188 health workers were temporarily suspended from work due to the expiration of their certificates. In general, the integration of information systems allows you to filter and prevent payments for fictitious services. In particular, medical care for deceased people, the work of a doctor simultaneously in different medical institutions in different regions, registration, etc.

A single digital profile of a citizen has been created, in which medical data is stored regardless of place of residence and affiliation. 5.6 million people used the online appointment with a doctor. From January 1, 2027, it is planned to launch automatic notifications about screenings. For example, as a result of the integration of healthcare systems and internal affairs bodies, medical contraindications to driving transport are identified. Already suspended for today
