The new leadership of the Ministry of Health is going to promote the breaking of the Health Regions into 13 Health Regions that will correspond to the borders of the current administrative regions of the country.
According to reliable information, it is the will of the leadership of Michalis Chrysochoidis at the Ministry of Health to advance a reforming section that has been promised by all the last governments of the country but none has reached the end. It is typical that during SYRIZA, when the Ministry of Health was under the administration of the late Takis Nikolopoulos, the change seemed finished… there somewhere around 2018, but also during the previous ND government, efforts were made by local MPs to proceed with the required change. Despite the promises of the leadership of the Ministry of Health, nothing happened…
For operational reasons, it is a given that a… super-Ministry of Health that extends from Kalamata to the border with Albania, in all the health structures of this geographical area, cannot have effective control and direct intervention in the problems that concern hospitals, Centers Health and TOMY.
For years now, it has been considered logical that a Ministry of Health that would have its competence within the boundaries of each administrative Region, would not only be able to function better, but could also draw up a strategy for the field of public health.
What has been conveyed in the last few days by the leadership of the Ministry of Health to institutional actors from Ioannina as well, is that the breaking of the PES will proceed within the year. In the goals of the leadership of the Ministry, the decentralized new Regional Ministry of Health is to absorb resources from the available financial programs, to direct them to the improvement of public health infrastructure, implementing the ND’s pre-election commitment for interventions in hospitals and Health Centers.
