According to the National Health Service, in 2022, the average salary of health workers reached UAH 14.3 thousand. This is 21% more than in 2021 and 1.5 times higher than in 2020. Such figures are indicated in the message of the Ministry of Finance.

Most of all - by 36% - the average salary of doctors increased. Its size is 21 thousand UAH. The wallets of paramedical personnel became heavier by a quarter. Here the average salary is about 15 thousand UAH..

The highest average salary was in emergency medical care institutions. Here, doctors receive about 26 thousand hryvnia, nurses - 20 thousand hryvnia.

It should be noted that in 2022 the inflation rate was 26.6%. Therefore, we have to admit that the real profit of Ukrainian doctors did not grow as rapidly as it looks in nominal figures, and sometimes they did not even compensate for inflation..

The Ministry of Finance says that international financial assistance allowed Ukrainian doctors to pay salaries on time. It also contributed to the stable financing of the medical guarantee program.. This program provides free medical services and drug reimbursement..

In total, more than half a million specialists work in Ukrainian medical institutions.
