The Christian Democratic Movement (KDH) is aiming at initiating a no-confidence motion in Health Minister Zuzana Dolinkova (Voice-SD) with the support of other opposition parties. KDH MP Peter Stachura has pointed to the allegedly dysfunctional cardiology department at Trencin University Hospital, claiming that only one doctor is working at the department at the moment.
The MP at the same time opined that the minister hasn't done anything to stabilise the health-care sector, claiming that all health-insurers have been losing more money than they've made, despite the fact that the budget for health saw an extra €1 billion.
Health Minister Zuzana Dolinkova says Stachura keeps on spreading fear and uncertainty. „His public statements are disgraceful to the work of the personnel at Trencin hospital and are a pure mix of demagogy and populism,“ stated Minister. According to the spokesperson of Trencin hospital, Stachura’s statements are not true as there were also other doctors present in the hospital at the time of his visit.
