Mr. Do Xuan Tuyen, Deputy Minister of Health, informed that in 2025, the second facility of two hospitals: Bach Mai and Viet Duc will come into operation.
On the afternoon of January 8, at the regular Government press conference in December 2024, answering the question about the progress of Bach Mai Hospital 2 and Viet Duc Hospital 2, will they be completed on schedule? Deputy Minister of Health Do Xuan Tuyen said that the two projects have been under construction since 2014, in line with the general policy of caring for and protecting people's health, bringing high-quality medical services closer to the people, and reducing the burden on central health care.
However, according to Mr. Tuyen, the two projects were implemented under the EPC form, a contract for design, supply of technological equipment and construction of works. Therefore, during the implementation process, some problems were encountered and by January 2021, the contractor had to temporarily suspend construction.
Mr. Tuyen also said that in the past time, the Government, the Ministry of Health and related ministries have researched and reviewed to find solutions to remove difficulties and obstacles. In 2023, the Prime Minister decided to establish a working group to advise the Prime Minister on solutions. The working group is headed by the Minister of Health, with members including a Deputy Minister of Health and Deputy Ministers of the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Justice . Since then, the Government has held more than 20 meetings to discuss and resolve difficulties and obstacles.
The Prime Minister has held three meetings of the Government Standing Committee, and the Deputy Prime Ministers have held many meetings to listen to reports, thereby acknowledging the efforts of the working group to try to resolve the problems. Up to now, under the direction of the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Ministers, the working group has completed the solution to the problems and officially submitted it to the Government.
“From the beginning of November 2024, contractors will resume construction. With that spirit, the Ministry of Health continues to direct investors and construction units to actively coordinate with ministries and branches to implement, remove difficulties and obstacles, and strive to ensure the completion and operation of this project in 2025,” said Mr. Tuyen.
