Health system in crisis mode: Schumann fights for reforms!
The new Minister of Social Affairs Korinna Schumann from the SPÖ presented her plans to relieve the overloaded health system in an exciting ZiB 2 round, even if her topics were not on the agenda at the exam. Despite the lack of experience in the private sector, she, as Minister of Social Affairs, Labor and Health, has valuable political expertise. "I have noticed all agendas and developments in social policy - I definitely have the experience," said Schumann, while committed to the reconstruction of the trust in the health system, which suffers from long waiting times for doctor's appointments, as well as Kosmo reported .
A central concern of Schumann is the demand for a legal claim to a doctor's appointment within 14 days, a promise that was given during the election campaign, but has not yet been anchored in the government program. To relieve overcrowded outpatient clinics, it proposes the expansion of primary care centers (PVZ) and rejects an ambulance fee so as not to add additional strain on the population. "People have experienced many stresses, another fee would not be the right way," she said, but emphasized that an increase in the PVZ could have a positive effect by 20 to 30 to relieve the doctor's practices, as well as In terms of educational leave, Schumann announced that it would develop a new model for people with lower qualifications, which has not yet been carried out in detail. "It will be at the table shortly," she assured before entering into the critical discussion about the obligation to vaccinate during the Corona pandemic and the government was involved in the past. However, Schumann remains optimistic and looks at future changes in the law on pandemic creation.
