In November we will comment on how the budget is not enough, it will not be enough. We cannot fill a bottomless pit, it always leaks. If we want to pour 63 billion into it. This was stated by the former Minister of Health Dr. Miroslav Nenkov in the program “From the Day” on BNT.
There is no way to reform this system, it is out of the question. There are a hell of a lot of loopholes. How are we going to tell the people in Dermantsi that we will close their hospital, even though it is useless? It produces the worst medical product. There are doctors there who only pretend to be there so that the hospital can work, he pointed out.
The civilized world works like this - the vast majority of medical care can be provided pre-hospital, this is at lower costs and not lower quality. But then what will the hospitals do? In healthcare, the minister does not rule, he balances between the individual gaping mouths, Nenkov explained.
The former health minister emphasized that there is no such thing as free healthcare. “This echo of “Aurora”, which we still have in our heads from the era of Communism, that healthcare is free. We possess an immeasurable value and this is our health. We are forced to pay our health insurance, for which we receive some amount of healthcare. If we want luxury - we pay extra”.
“In my opinion, this whole system will fall apart, it won't be able to function”, he predicted.
