[this will be done] remotely, without involving a desktop computer," Suprun said. Asked what salaries the doctors will receive, Suprun said that it is critical for a doctor to understand "how much will one be able to earn if one works harder." According to her, it is expected that a doctor having 2,000 clients will be paid 370 hryvnia for treating a half of them while treatment of the other half (children or elderly people) will generate almost four times bigger income. "Its quite a lot a doctor can earn a year," she said. "We have figured out that it could be from 10,000 to 100,000 hryvnia, depending on how many clients are taken care of per month and what kind of treatment they receive," Suprun summed up.
