5.6 billion tenge was allocated from the special state reserve for the development of healthcare projects in Abai region. The funds were spent on improving healthcare infrastructure and raising the quality of medical care across the region.

The medical facilities will be commissioned this year and help provide the locals with modern and high-quality medical services.
