(ANSA) – ANCONA, MAR 15 – The Marches “will express a negative opinion on the ministerial decree 71 to the government, as will other neighboring regions: we cannot think of reforming healthcare by blocking recruitment, without having trained doctors of general medicine, without having trained 118 doctors or emergency room doctors “. Thus the regional councilor for health, Filippo Saltamartini, responding to journalists on the sidelines of the regional council.

“Today there is a conference of the Regions in which we have to express an opinion on Ministerial Decree 71, which, in parallel with the 2015 Balduzzi decree on population standards to which first and second level hospitals can correspond, concerns the organization of territorial services” . “The theme is always the same – complains the commissioner – any reorganization must take into account the shortage of doctors, the shortage of specializations, the Marches will express a negative opinion …”. The theme of the shortage of doctors “is dramatic – underlines Saltamartini – only for 118 out of 180 doctors who should be employed on ambulances, there are 70 missing”.

The commissioner reiterates the proposals to remedy this situation: “The limited number of medicine must be eliminated for at least 2-3 years, – he says – the specializations must be tripled and the problem of the jungle of wages must be solved: many doctors do not want to serve in the continuity of assistance, in 118, in the emergency rooms because there is a salary jungle with treatments that tend to ‘discourage’ those who carry out these disadvantaged services, especially those at night. there is an answer.It is true that there is war, Covid and the increase in the cost of fuel but the issue of citizens’ health is central in our country.
