Clinical Hospital Štip development and services

Overview

The Clinical Hospital Štip in North Macedonia is undergoing service expansions and infrastructure planning. The facility has launched a new multidisciplinary breast clinic featuring a team of specialists, including radiologists, surgeons, oncologists, and pathologists, to provide faster diagnoses for patients with breast pathologies.

Regarding the hospital’s broader infrastructure, Minister of Health Sašo Klekovski indicated that construction to complete the facility is projected to resume in the summer or autumn of 2027. This timeline is contingent upon finalizing financing agreements with the World Bank and the European Investment Bank by the end of the year. Klekovski described the current unfinished state of the facility as a ‘monument to incompetence,’ noting that the hospital serves over 200,000 patients in the eastern and southeastern regions. Additionally, repairs to weather-damaged sections of the hospital remain stalled pending the resolution of a legal dispute regarding site supervision.
