It allowed us to introduce the achievements of modern science, ensure the transfer of international principles of hospital management and international standards of diagnosis and treatment, as well as conduct joint scientific and innovative research and projects with world-renowned universities and clinics. The First President of the Republic of Kazakhstan – Elbasy in his article "United we stand" emphasized: "The health of the nation is the main priority of state policy, the basic component of national security, one of the main conditions for the welfare of the country".
