There is no information available among sources consulted on the above-mentioned question. A representative of the World Health Organization's Regional Office for Europe is not aware of the specific procedures for admissions into hospitals in Moldova. She indicates that, like other countries in the former Soviet Union, the Moldovan health care system is undergoing reform and, therefore, procedures may differ considerably from what they were six months ago (WHO 18 Mar. 1994).

This response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the DIRB within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
