Is it a place where members of our political leadership and diplomatic corps are treated?
Yes, it is true. However, the MMA is an example of successful international cooperation, and an active participant in numerous bilateral and multilateral activities in the spheres of civilian and military healthcare. There are numerous foreign delegation visits the MMA hosts almost every day, and the deployment of its medical personnel to peacekeeping missions is also considered very important.
