Łukasz Szumowski said that improving patients’ access to specialists was one of the government’s priorities.

The extra funding will be used for medical procedures including cataract surgery, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans, and for treating disabled people, Poland’s PAP news agency reported.
