Does the Health Minister want to test deliveries in ambulances? That's one of the questions raised during this session of the Sejm, specifically - during the deliberations of the Parliamentary Group on Local Government Hospitals, which on Wednesday dealt with plans for changes in hospitality. On...
The United States has released updated vaccines against COVID-19 - with concerns about a large wave of infections with new SARS-CoV-2 variants as a backdrop. A Covid wave is also sweeping through Europe, including Poland, with so little that we know almost nothing about it, at least in our...
So many of my colleagues outside the government are speaking out about the premium that, frankly, I think that the Minister of Health should probably not enter into this discussion, which is absolutely journalistic and political," Izabela Leszczyna said on Wednesday morning, commenting on reports...
The Left will not let go of the abortion issue, the leaders of the smallest of the coalition partners declare. This is a reaction to Donald Tusk's declaration at the opening of the Campus Polska Przyszłości that there is no way in the current Sejm to carry out the legalization of abortion in the...
Immediately after the vacations, a bill on changes to the contribution from entrepreneurs is expected to reach the Sejm. Finance Minister Andrzej Domanski has already announced, in a framework, what might happen: the obligation to pay premiums on the sale of fixed assets (repeatedly cited, for...
Roman Giertych, one of the two Coalition Civic MPs punished by the Civic Coalition, whose lack of support for the law decriminalizing aiding and abetting abortion contributed to the failure to pass the bill, declares publicly (interview with Gazeta.pl) that while he has not and will not change...
Doctors have no doubt: supervision of opioid prescriptions needs to be strengthened to reduce the risk of issuing them unnecessarily, or to put it bluntly, because it's probably high time to do so - for criminal purposes.
Shock and disbelief - that was the reaction of the medical community when senior officials of the science and health ministries announced last Thursday in the Sejm that the government wants to restore normalcy.
The government, judging from a reading of the Multiannual State Financial Plan adopted by the Council of Ministers a few days ago, does not foresee any acceleration in the growth of health care outlays, and since, as has been mentioned more than once, the growth in recent years has been quite...
Not a health benefit, not a pharmaceutical service, and the activity will be billed by the National Health Fund starting May 1. Reading the report on the public consultation of the draft regulation on the pilot program, under which women are to gain access to emergency contraception without the...
The Minister of Health is not elected to the European Parliament. Izabela Leszczyna has confirmed this in public statements for days, and there is not the slightest reason not to believe her.
The well of the government is over, the frenzy was not - certainly not in health care. But let's agree, this caesura is completely artificial, what can be done for a hundred days, especially when most of this time has to be spent firstly on learning the system, secondly - on defusing the...
Pulse oximeters from a perfume dealer, overpaid - several times over - medical equipment, tens of thousands of zlotys spent on analyses and consultations, contractors without experience. This, in one sentence, is how one can summarize the information that Tuesday's Gazeta Wyborcza reports on the...
Did the previous government devastate the medical education system? Voices are coming from the academic medical school community that of course - yes. What's more, assurances have been heard for weeks that KRAUM has protested loudly and emphatically against the decisions made by the ministers of...
... and here reality squawks. This colloquial version of Stanislaw Wyspianski's words ("So that our hearts would laugh to great, great things. And here commonness squawks ...") perfectly describes the current situation in the sensitive area of public health quite accurately.
More than 175 million zlotys - this is the amount that ended the day of the 32nd Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. What the final sum will be, we'll find out in a few weeks, and there's really no need to divagate whether a record will be broken. Because, after all, that's not...
The Medical Research Agency will survive, but it will have to change - this is the conclusion after Tuesday's meeting of the Health Committee (meeting adjourned, will continue next week). How deep the changes will be and - above all - whether they will go in the right direction, time will tell.
The Parliamentary Health Committee this week will face its first (of a long list) "investigative" topic, taking the Medical Research Agency under the magnifying glass. An agency against which, already at the stage of legislative work in 2019, the then opposition had numerous objections, and...
Looking at the work schedule of the Health Committee - there will be no boredom. Several meetings are scheduled for January alone, the topics of which will heat up public opinion. No topic works on the imagination like the way public funds are spent. Optimally - by political opponents. So, first...
- You should not say anything about medicines. Because of your decisions, I now have to look all over the world for vaccines," Health Minister Izabela Leszczyna said during the debate on next year's draft budget toward Law and Justice deputies. At the same time, the head of the Health Ministry...
