The new government places an emphasis on healthcare reforms
At its first official meeting, the new government of Bulgaria outlined its main priorities for the upcoming period. The cabinet's primary focus will be improving the performance of state institutions and restoring public trust through transparent governance.
Among the most important tasks set by the Prime Minister is addressing financial abuses within the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF). The government plans to introduce stricter control over the expenditure of public funds to ensure that taxpayers' money is used effectively for the needs of patients.
The Prime Minister emphasized that it is high time to put an end to corrupt practices in the sector. According to him, healthcare reform is critically important for the quality of life of Bulgarian citizens and for their access to quality medical services.
Specific legislative changes aimed at limiting opportunities for fraud are expected to be presented in the coming weeks. The authorities are calling for an active dialogue with professional organizations in order to find the best solutions for the sustainable development of the country's healthcare system.
