The PLN 840 million (EUR 192 million, USD 211 million) project aims to improve the quality of treatment and patient comfort at the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Oncology Centre in Warsaw, officials said at the signing on Tuesday.
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said the project was shaping up as “an important milestone on the road to improving the health of the Polish people."
The country’s conservative leader, Jarosław Kaczyński, said this month that Poland was set to double spending on healthcare by 2024.
Poland's government is expected to develop a long-term national strategy to fight cancer under a law greenlighted by the country’s president in May.
The new Polish cancer strategy until 2030 is intended to help reduce the incidence and mortality from cancer and to improve quality of life for patients and their families.
