Montenegro healthcare infrastructure and cooperation

Overview

Montenegro has undertaken several initiatives to improve its medical infrastructure and diagnostic capabilities. In late August 2026, Pljevlja General Hospital acquired new ultrasound technology valued at 54,692 euros to expand its range of examinations, including abdominal, pelvic, and vascular assessments.

Following these technological upgrades, Montenegrin officials met with Turkish health representatives to discuss broader bilateral cooperation. The discussions focused on improving treatment options for Montenegrin citizens in Turkish state institutions, establishing a diagnostic center in Podgorica for early disease detection, and exploring specialized training programs for medical staff. The two nations also addressed the digitalization of healthcare systems and the exchange of expertise regarding modern digital health infrastructure.
