“The Mingachevir, Ganja and Guba branches operate according to the administrative-territorial units established by the board of the agency,” said the report. “Thus, the Mingachevir branch of the agency covers Mingachevir and Naftalan cities, Yevlakh, Agdash, Barda and Terter districts, the Ganja branch – Ganja city, Samukh, Goranboy, Goygol and Dashkesan districts, Guba branch - Guba, Gusar, Khachmaz, Shabran and Siyazan districts.”

The branches will take measures to ensure the protection of public health and conduct educational work on the promotion of compulsory medical insurance. They will also provide support to the agency in assessing registries and examining data on medical services provided by medical institutions within compulsory medical insurance.
In addition, the branches will take the appropriate measures to solve technical problems that may arise in connection with the management of software used in medical institutions.
