Dr. Petar Moskov: Half of the money for the modernization of the Emergency Service returned to Brussels  - 1

Proper management means knowing what you are aiming for. We are pouring more and more money, but there is no efficiency. This was stated by the former Minister of Health, Dr. Petar Moskov, on the air of “Eurocom“.

The state must clearly tell all of us what it chooses - the Emergency Service to be just one transport or to be the first place where we get treatment, he added.

From my point of view, it should be the second. A huge part of the ambulance fleet is outdated. This is transport assistance, not medical assistance. There must be a clear investment in Emergency Care.

We had left the blueprints for changing and modernizing the Emergency Departments and centers, as well as for purchasing 400 new ambulances.

Half of this money has been irretrievably lost and returned to Brussels, Moskov specified.
