The Río Negro government stated that “reinforced Health with more personnel” and “meets the increase in demand,” ensuring that Interventions were not suspended and care in hospital wards is increasing.
Yesterday, RIO NEGRO published a report from the hospital system, exposing its emergency situation. The request to the Ministry of Health for its own evaluation did not arrive, but was delivered the day before.
In its analysis, the government concluded that Río Negro “reinforced Health with more personnel” and “meets the increase in demand,” stating that “262 new senior hospital workers” were incorporated in the last four years. There were 245 professionals and 16 new workers of the 1844 law.
He considered the support of the “policy of improving salaries” and reviews remuneration ranges. He specified that 18% of the doctors will charge 60,000 pesos since they are the ones who are below 400,000 pesos. In nurses it will reach 45% and in non-medical professionals it will reach 26%.
It indicates a “strong increase in care” in “guards, clinical analyses, diagnostic imaging, x-rays, MRIs, tomography scans, referrals, hospitalizations and even surgeries.”
In relation to shifts, Salud explains that “the growing demand has an impact on availability” but assures that the Bariloche guards served a daily average of 250 people, 280 in Roca, 300 in Viedma and more than 400 in Cipolletti.
He states that in “none of the high-complexity hospitals stopped their services or surgeries, both scheduled and emergency.” It cites 350 interventions in Bariloche, 233 in Roca, 192 in Viedma and 180 in Cipolletti, without counting births.”
He adds that “almost 40% of the people served have some social work,” explaining that the “current economic context forces families to contract low health coverage” and “it is also complicated by the high costs of medications.” .
It lists that “the critical areas of high costs” were reinforced and “record an increasing registry, with 7,500 patients in the Diabetes program, 850 oncology and 675 chronic patients.”
In another point It is highlighted that the public system is impacted by the “daily rise in the prices of medicines, tenders without offers and the increase in the amount of care. This situation, he added, has made purchases increasingly more difficult and the administrative circuits more rigorous over time.
It is mentioned that “there are suppliers, when impacted by the increases, cancel delivery orders,” concluding that “this context generates shortages and makes hospital service difficult.”
