The state will purchase hearing aids for disabled people of III group

The state will purchase hearing aids for disabled people of the III group at the expense of the republican budget. The law-in-draft of deputies was considered today in the course of the plenary session and adopted in two readings at once. According to the Chairman of the Committee on Social Protection and Healthcare Sergei Cheban, the initiative was developed due to the numerous appeals of this category of disabled people.

99 people with group III hearing disabilities need hearing aids according to the Ministry of Social Protection and the Ministry of Health. Free devices need to be issued once every four years according to the law. Approximately 500 thousand rubles are needed for these purposes.

Deputies of the Supreme Council supported the law-in-draft "On Amendments to the Law of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic" On social protection of people with special needs" and adopted it in two readings at once. The amendment will enter into force after the President.
