Abstract
After the end of World War II, medical institutions of the Kemerovoregion needed repair, new buildings, modern equipment, and medical personnel. The region suffered from recurrent gastrointestinal epidemics and high mortality rate, especially among children. There were special medical-sanitary units that treated industrial workers; their level of healthcare care was higher than in other medical institutions. In 1945–1959, the local healthcare saw a significant improvement; the network of medical institutions expanded, the number of doctors and hospital beds increased, epidemiological situation improved and mortality decreased. Still, poor social financing and the rapid growth of urban population prevented the region from reaching the all-Union level.
