As announced in recent months, the Municipality has decided to come to the aid of the ASP to resolve the emergency linked to the delays in processing requests for a change of family doctor or for issuing a medical exemption card.
The municipal council has approved a memorandum of understanding with the same local health authority to open a desk inside the municipal building available to users who need to change their family doctor or renew exemptions due to pathologies.
In the agreement, which will have a three-year duration, the Municipality will ensure citizens resident (solely and exclusively) in the Municipality of Milazzo with the following services: registration, change and cancellation of the assisted person; choice, revocation and change of general practitioner; issuing of the health card; activation of the health card; income tax exemption. People and instrumental resources will be made available by the Municipality.
“We had proposed this solution to try to mitigate the inconvenience caused by the numerous requests coming from the whole district to the ASP offices in via Impallomeni – said the mayor Pippo Midili – and today after the discussion with the leaders of the District and the Company provincial health we have signed the memorandum of understanding aimed at allowing eligible citizens resident in the municipal area to use the health registry service relating to the choice or change of general practitioner, via a specific IT desk managed at the municipal offices”.
