The result is the uneven availability of health care in the region and the highest share of general practitioners and pediatricians of retirement age among all regions in Slovakia.
"Due to the unfavorable demographic trend, our region is also the fastest aging region in Slovakia. This is associated with ever-increasing demands on health care.
