On the other hand the tariffs for hi-technology services in the public sector are very
competitive with the private sector. For example every year the government of the
Russian Federation and the City of St. Petersburg make a state order of angioplasty
.
The tariffs for such a service are 120 000 RUR and 214 000 RUR in St. Petersburg
resp. Russian Federation. As it was stated by Nadezhda Alexeeva, Director of St.
Petersburg Cardio Clinic the price of such operation in their private center is 124 000
and they are very motivated to compete with the public sector. As they were explained
by Roszdravnadzor it is needed to obtain an extra license on providing hi-technology
services besides other licenses they have for provision this treatment on a private basis.
