In the first installment of this series taking a look at the Soviet era medical equipment still being used in Yerevan's government-run polyclinics, we noted that patients cannot receive proper diagnostic care due to the advanced age of the machines.
They often break down. Some work on a limited basis.
Hetq telephoned all the polyclinics in Yerevan, asking management if they provide x-ray, fluorography and dental x-ray exams. It turns out that nine of the 24 polyclinics in Armenia's capital cannot provide full diagnostic services. They either do not have the equipment or the equipment they do have is too old to provide accurate results.
