The Federation of Associations of Hospital Physicians of Greece (OENGE) proceeded with an appeal to the Council of State (Council of State) once morest the Greek State and the Joint Ministerial Decision (CMD) establishing followingnoon surgeries in public hospitals.
The cancellation request at Co for followingnoon surgeries signed by 30 Medical Associations, through the secondary trade union body (the OENGE).
“We continue in every way the fight once morest the governmental wretchedness of the paid surgeries in the followingnoon, once morest the price list of shame, once morest the take-off of commercial operation with private economic criteria of public hospitals, their transformation into trading houses that exploit human suffering at the time of of illness and turn the doctor-patient relationship into a simple commercial transaction”, the doctors emphasize.
Arguing in the annulment petition once morest the KYA, which is signed by the ministers of the National Economy – Finance and Health, the doctors emphasize that “the state has the responsibility for providing health services to all citizens and that health services are provided equally to every citizen , through the unified and decentralized National Health System”.
Also, from the provisions of the ministerial decision that regulates the operation of the followingnoon surgeries, the following emerges, as they state:
– The NHS hospitals are encouraged to market health and for their own benefit, with allied NHS doctors.
– The acquisition of the same resources, with which, in fact, the additional on-calls will be compensated (par. 118 of article 45 of Law 3205/2003).
-The reduction, through the acquisition of own resources, of the financing of the NHS hospitals by the Ministry of Health and, finally, by the state budget.
– Encouraging NHS doctors to practice medicine privately and with the patient as a client to increase their income.
-The treatment of patients according to their income. Those who can afford to pay receive the medical services they need for their health in time, those who can’t have to wait.
-The falsification, if not annulment, of the purpose of the insurance contributions, which are necessarily withheld from the employees’ wages, in order to also protect their health, since those who can afford it come first, even though those who do not have the financial ability also paid insurance contributions .
According to newsit, the doctors characterize the authorizing provision in which the KYA is based as “unconstitutional” and are therefore appealing to the highest body of Justice for its annulment.
