Latvia Is One of Europe's Smallest Countries, and Faced A Difficult Transition during The 1990s from Being Part of The Ussr to Developing A Market Economy. of The Three Baltic Republics, Latvia Has The Strongest Ties to Russia; A Sizeable Minority of The Population Is Russian, and The Country Has A High Level of Dependency on Russia for Energy Supplies and Other Raw Materials. However, since The 1998 Russian Economic Crisis, Tough Government Reforms Have LED to An Improved Economic Performance and Impressive Levels of Gdp Growth. Latvia Became A Full Member of The Eu in May 2004 and Its Medical Device Legislation Is in Line with The Relevant Eu Directives.
The Healthcare System Has Undergone A Number of Reforms since Independence. The Initial Reforms of The Early 1990s Saw A Wide Degree of Decentralisation. This Proved Chaotic, and A Firmer Degree of Central Control Is Now in Place. The Overriding Problem for The Healthcare System Is Funding; A System of Social Insurance Was Envisaged but Has Never Been Introduced, with The Result That Public Healthcare Is Funded Almost Entirely from General Taxation. as A Result, The Public Sector Is Able to Provide Only A Strictly Defined Basket of Services; Those Deemed Non-Essential Are Either Provided Publicly for A Fee, or in The Private Sector. The Private Hospital Sector Is Tiny, Although Many Clinic Services, Such as Dentistry or Cosmetic Surgery, Are Provided Privately.
