Dear friends, since she was born the Afea Onlus
Here we go again. It was established only recently, yet the Government is already starting Zaia at full speed to do damage. Or rather, it continues the work done so far by the Government Galan. It is now the announcement of the new health plan that the region is developing community health. The bottom line is simple: fewer hospitalizations and fewer beds! As if it were cut short so far! They know something hospitals of Adria, Rovigo and, even more than three hundred. About the other hand, cuts it has seen few, if any, are the usual private structures, but I shall come back later.
Here are the numbers of the new plan: to bring the number of beds per thousand population from 4.5 to 3.8 (-15.6%) and admissions from 160 per thousand to 130 / 140 (about 20% less). Not only that, but since it is anticipated that the cuts will be less heavy for the excellence of Verona (home of Tosi and many private entrepreneurs of Health) and Padua, the cuts will be borne mainly on the outlying provinces, including the usual Polesine (which is has a population average older). So, dear fellow citizens, you see less of getting sick or if you really want to get sick, get care privately!
The reason is simple: the Veneto in health spending increases of 4% per year, while government transfers to only 2%. Far from criticizing colleagues who are in Rome thieving, Zaia said that "the cuts will be." Other than "Paron at home"!
But the "Paron" in Veneto there are and how! They are the lords of private health care. For them the crisis is not and I never got the impression that this new wave of cuts will leave unchanged the balance of certain private establishments. Because if health spending increases dramatically in the Veneto, it's not because the increase in public services, indeed, we all know how they are made. Instead, the soaring leaps to the eyes and continuing expenses for individuals over the past 10 years, more than quadrupled! A few days ago a statistic showing how our province is the one with the greatest increase in private enterprises in health: +16.2% in one year. Thank you very much, with some entries and growing, I would do myself an entrepreneur health!
If this were not enough, just came out last year that new issues would have to raise a genuine movement of indignation in public opinion:
- 18 sull'ULSS in its report, the Director General Marcolongo said that you could save 14 million euro per year for transfers to private play by the same benefits to existing public facilities;
- the Court of Auditors has the seizure of part of Private Nursing Home St Mary Magdalene, is suspected of fraud against the region of 3 million euro;
- the Inland Revenue discover tax evasion of around 700,000 € by one of the most important business health of our province through a round of false invoices.
not that, rather than cutting the number of beds and admissions, you should see to reduce waste in this area?
It is not that this is not because election campaigns cost and some "sponsor" to help pay for them?
Here are some questions on which we all consider to help us pass the month waiting for a visit or a hospitalization.
