Emergency practice in Oberndorf in front of: CDU demands clarity!

Oberndorf, Deutschland - The discussion about the future of emergency practices in the Rottweil district is currently causing a lot of excitement. The CDU district association has clearly positioned itself and calls for the preservation of these important health facilities, which in many cases play an important role in medical care. This is done in the context of a planned reduction in emergency practices by the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians, which should affect a total of 17 locations throughout Baden-Württemberg-including the practices in Oberndorf and Wolfach. For the CDU, the reasons for this decision are not durable.

Stefan Teufel, the district chairman and deputy parliamentary group leader, expresses itself skeptically and questions the decision -making basis: "It is not understandable for us on the basis of these decisions." The Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians (KV) is asked to take its responsibility seriously and to ensure that medical care in the district is not endangered.

open questions about closure

The CDU raised several central questions in its resolution that are important for future medical care:

• How high was the use of the KV medical emergency service in the practices in the Rottweil district and especially in Oberndorf and Wolfach in the past 24 months?
• How has the frequency of rescue operations in the Rottweil district developed in the past three years?
• Which models have been developed for the delegation of medical tasks on specially qualified, non-medical staff and were they also tested for medical on-call service?
• How is telemedicine used by KVB?

Teufel confirms that the existing emergency practices mean a significant relief for the emergency services in the district. Accessibility plays an important role in a large -scale district like Rottweil. He emphasizes that not only the accessibility is important, but also the actual use of these practices. The demographic development should also be included in the decisions to ensure the availability of doctors in rural regions.

The Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians is responsible for guaranteeing a nationwide medical care in Baden-Württemberg. Therefore, the CDU district board Rottweil expects a prompt answer to the questions raised in order to obtain clarity about future medical care in the region. If you close the practices, this could have a fatal impact on the emergency care of the population, one aspect that should be taken into account in the current debate.
