Politiikan puskaradio: Will the compensation experiment raise the prices of doctor’s visits? –

Ownership of water, Nordea’s disappearing accounts and the budget for Kela compensations will be discussed this week on Politiika’s Puskaradio.

In episode number 156 of Politiika’s Puskaradio podcast, we consider whether 335 million euros might be enough when elderly people are paid for private doctors’ offices.

A new Kela reimbursement experiment is being planned for next year, where people over 65 would be able to see a private general practitioner at the price of public healthcare. The patient pays a deductible of about 28 euros and the state takes care of the rest of the bill.

A price ceiling is planned for the experiment, but there is still a fear that with the reimbursements, subsidy money will rush into the coffers of the health giants, while the prices will increase along with the subsidies.

– What do you think, will this 335 million euros be enough? supplier Jari Hanska asks his colleagues.

In addition to the medical bills, the episode also explores whether they are a political reporter Crete Caravan the money completely disappeared from Nordea’s account in the wake of the recent server blocking attacks, the uproar around the privatization of water and Minister Arto Satonen’s (kok) employment measures.

In the joke of the week, the slogan is changed to a new one.

In Politiikan puskaradio, Iltalehti’s political reporters review the week’s hottest topics and gossip. A new episode is published on Fridays.
