Today, LB.ua, together with EFI Group, brought together experts and thought leaders for another session of the Nova Krayina project.
The topic of discussion — “Ukrainian Society 2026: Demographics, Migration, Labor Market.” This is a conversation about a future that is already being shaped today by the decisions of the government, business, and society.
We are discussing what matters most: how Ukraine’s population is changing, the key challenges facing the labor market, and the solutions that are needed today.
As is the tradition of Nova Krayina, this is not only a series of speeches, but an open, interactive discussion with the audience.
Stay tuned for updates — video recordings and materials from the event will soon be available on the LB.ua platform.
Clinics “Medychna Zirka” and “Miy Likar”, part of the EFI Group portfolio, have completed an important stage in the development of their preventive diagnostics program — delivering over 100 comprehensive health screenings for patients aged 40+.
The 40+ Screening Program is designed for individuals who take a systematic approach to their health. It covers four key diagnostic areas:
— cardiovascular system
— metabolic processes and metabolism
— mental health
— comprehensive assessment of core body functions
The goal of the program is to provide patients with a holistic understanding of their health and to identify risk factors at early stages, when intervention is most effective.
Preventive medicine is steadily becoming an integral part of a modern lifestyle. Early диагностика helps maintain activity, productivity, and quality of life for years to come — and demand for such services among Ukrainians continues to grow.
The program is implemented across two clinics within the Group, using advanced diagnostic protocols and involving specialized medical professionals.

EFI Group is developing its healthcare direction as part of a diversified investment portfolio, with a focus on accessible preventive medicine.
EFI Group, together with LB.ua, continues a series of public discussions within the framework of the Nova Krayina project. The latest meeting focused on the outcomes of the 2025–2026 winter and preparations for the upcoming heating season.
The discussion brought together government officials, local authorities, and industry experts to openly address key challenges facing the state, communities, and businesses in the 2026–2027 winter season.
Among the speakers:
Participants noted that despite the challenges of the 2025–2026 winter, the experience gained allows for a more structured and strategic approach to preparing for the next heating season.
According to experts, the winter of 2026–2027 may remain challenging, but it is expected to be significantly more predictable. The level of coordination between the government, municipalities, and businesses will be a decisive factor in ensuring stability.
Special attention was given to regional preparedness. Resilience plans are already being developed and will be adopted at the local level, forming the foundation for a stable heating season.
Detailed insights and key conclusions from the discussion will soon be available on the LB.ua platform.
EFI Group thanks all participants for an open and substantive discussion.
Today, the development of healthcare goes beyond standalone technologies or equipment, it is increasingly driven by partnerships that elevate standards across the entire industry.
“Medychna Zirka,” one of EFI Group’s healthcare businesses, systematically builds cooperation with technological leaders to provide patients across Ukraine with more accurate, faster, and higher-quality medical services.
As part of this approach, the Medychna Zirka team met with CSD LAB, one of the few laboratories in Ukraine operating fully automated processes. This level of technological advancement is already setting new benchmarks for accuracy, speed, and quality control in laboratory diagnostics.
During the visit, Oleksandr Dudin, co-owner of the laboratory, guided the team through the full operational cycle: from digital modeling to final results.
This reflects the level of systemization and technological excellence that EFI Group aims to scale within Ukraine’s healthcare sector.
The meeting also focused on practical areas of cooperation, including the integration of advanced laboratory solutions into Medychna Zirka’s operations. For EFI Group, this is not only about business development, but about consistently improving patient outcomes through:
EFI Group continues to develop its healthcare direction as part of a diversified investment portfolio, implementing best-in-class solutions to make modern medicine more accessible in Ukraine.
The combination of Medychna Zirka’s scale and CSD LAB’s technological expertise creates a powerful synergy, opening new opportunities for the industry. Such partnerships are shaping the future of healthcare through quality, technology, and a systematic approach.
DOC.UA and the private clinic network Medychna Zirka have launched a new product for corporate clients — the digital healthcare service “Team Health.” The solution enables businesses to systematically support employee health and create conditions for stable team performance without excessive sick leave and overload.
The service serves as an alternative to traditional corporate health insurance and aims to shift the business approach to employee health from treatment reimbursement to systematic prevention.
“Team Health” combines unlimited online medical consultations with preventive on-site health checkups. Employees gain access to general practitioners, pediatricians, and specialized doctors through the DOC.UA mobile application in just a few clicks. Online consultations are available regardless of the work format — in the office, remotely, or during business travel.
In addition to online consultations, the service includes on-site visits by a corporate physician 1–2 times per year. During these visits, preventive checkups, laboratory sample collection, and vaccinations are carried out directly at the office or production facility.
“The world’s most successful companies have long stopped viewing employee health as an expense — it is a strategic investment in productivity and business resilience. In Ukraine, this approach is only beginning to take shape, and businesses now have the opportunity to set a new standard of responsible employee care. Over the next 5–7 years, Ukrainian companies will compete not only for markets but also for talent. Those that build a systematic culture of care for their teams will succeed. We provide a modern and effective tool for corporate social responsibility,” said Igor Liski, CEO and majority investor of DOC.UA.
The “Team Health” service is easily integrated into the corporate culture of companies of any size — from small and medium-sized businesses to large industrial enterprises.
“The Ukrainian corporate segment is accustomed to working with health insurance that reimburses treatment costs. Businesses spend resources on insurance but do not always achieve systematic results. We have built a direct model without intermediaries, which allowed us to reduce costs for businesses while increasing functionality for employees. A preventive model is more cost-effective than a reactive one. About 70–80% of typical medical requests can be resolved online without interrupting work processes. That is why we offer regular access to doctors as part of a company’s social responsibility infrastructure,” noted Iryna Dylova, Executive Director of DOC.UA.
Employees gain access to:
Employers receive only aggregated analytics without access to employees’ personal medical data. This allows companies to assess general health trends within their workforce and plan preventive measures while maintaining full confidentiality of personal information.
After signing an agreement, employees receive access promo codes. To activate the corporate package, they simply download the DOC.UA mobile application, complete their profile, and enter the code.
Companies can choose from three service packages — Basic, Expert, and Premium, each customizable according to specific business needs.
The Basic package includes unlimited consultations with a general practitioner on duty from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM on business days. Extended packages include consultations with specialized doctors as well as on-site visits by a corporate physician and medical teams to offices or production facilities.
Additionally, DOC.UA personal assistants help employees find required medications at the best price and convenient locations, schedule appointments with specialists upon referral, and select optimal diagnostic centers for examinations. Company employees also receive special offers, promotions, and discounts for doctor appointments, diagnostics, and laboratory testing.
DOC.UA is an online medical service for booking appointments at private healthcare facilities across Ukraine. It helps users find the right doctor or medical service and schedule clinic visits. Online consultations are available from anywhere in the world.
Approximately 1.2 million users visit the DOC.UA website and mobile application each month. The platform hosts nearly 600,000 verified patient reviews, provides promo codes for diagnostic tests at more than 880 laboratories, and enables medication reservations at over 7,855 pharmacies.
Medical Zirka is a network of 30+ private clinics across Ukraine. The network employs more than 130 primary care and specialist doctors, delivering approximately 1.4 million consultations annually. By the number of active patient declarations, Medical Zirka is among the leading private clinic networks in Ukraine, with more than 113,000 patients entrusting their health to its doctors.
The network’s medical centers offer comprehensive check-ups, ultrasound diagnostics, and laboratory testing services.
