Abstract
Mongolia has established the foundation measures for a national palliative care program. Generic cost-effective opioids have been made available. Prescription regulations have been changed to allow opioid use according to good medical practice. Education on palliative care has been incorporated into the undergraduate curricula of doctors, nurses, and social workers, and the training of specialists in palliative care has been initiated concurrent with established standards for palliative care.
