During the meeting, representatives from the provincial leadership and the Nghe An Oncology Hospital informed representatives from the METROSRTAV Group about general information regarding the Nghe An Oncology Hospital, particularly the difficulties encountered in its construction.

Accordingly, the hospital was established by Decision 3826/QD-UBND dated August 27, 2010, of the People's Committee of Nghe An province and officially began operations on August 8, 2011. As a specialized hospital for the North Central region, its mission is to examine, detect, screen, treat, and manage cancer patients in Nghe An province and the North Central region. However, the hospital is currently operating with temporary and cramped facilities. The large and ever-increasing number of patients means the hospital is constantly overloaded and unable to meet the healthcare needs of the people.

Meanwhile, the Nghe An Oncology Hospital construction project, with a capacity of 500 beds in Nghi Kim and Nghi Lien communes, covering an area of ​​14 hectares and a total investment of over 1,000 billion VND, is currently in the planning, compensation, support, and land clearance stages. However, due to the economic downturn and lack of funding, the implementation progress is very slow. Nghe An province hopes to receive assistance from METROSRTAV Group in finding funding and loans to build the hospital.

During a meeting with the leaders of Nghe An province, Mr. Stanislav Kotrack stated that METROSRTAV Group is one of the largest corporations in the Czech Republic in the fields of healthcare and construction; it has built many large hospital projects around the world as well as in Vietnam.MaleThe Nghe An Oncology Hospital is one of the projects that the METROSRTAV Group is interested in and has proposed to invest in. With its professional expertise and economic potential, the Group can find low-interest loans from banks in the Czech Republic and Europe to build the hospital, ensuring quality, technical standards, and timely completion. According to Mr. Stanislav Kotrack, to receive this loan, the Nghe An Oncology Hospital needs a guarantee from the Government and banks.

On behalf of the provincial leadership, Mr. Nguyen Xuan Duong thanked Mr. Stanislav Kotrck and his colleagues for their goodwill and invited Mr. Kotrck to visit the current Oncology Hospital and discuss the loan, interest rates, and binding conditions in more detail. After reaching a common understanding, the province and the Group will sign a memorandum of understanding and proceed with the next steps.
