Today Donald Tusk met with the inhabitants of Lidzbark Warmiński. The head of Civic Platform said, among other things: about healing the NHS. However, taking into account the conversation between Stanisław Gawłowski and the then Minister of Health, Bartosz Arłukowicz, one has to ask whether Tusk really wants to cure the situation in hospitals or rather liquidate it?
Let us remind you that in August 2021 at the PO Campus Polska Przyszłości event, the Marshal of the Senate, Tomasz Grodzki, declared that liquidation of a large part of hospitals is the method of improving health care in Poland. According to Grodzki, since in Denmark with a population of 5 million there are only 16, in Poland with a population of 40 million 130 would be enough, not about 1,000, as is the case today.

– Yes, PO ruled finances! Gawłowski to Arłukowicz: “Do you know that the budget is running out?”. “Close 4 hospitals and come for 200 bubbles.” Compromising TAPES
During his speech, Tusk said that a group of experts came to him with a proposal for changes to the National Health Fund.
To move away from this rigid cost structure, which creates a lot of power that doesn’t work because there’s no more funding from the National Health Fund, and to rethink how the National Health Fund, with the financial support of the state during the first year of our rule this system oiled (…) to unblock procedures where there are boundaries and so that it is no longer the case that someone dies because there is no place and money for a procedure, although there is either a place or in this particular hospital 100 km away there is a place and a doctor is there but there is no funding and the hospital won’t take it on because it’s not sure if anyone will fund it
Tusk said.
No one in Poland can die, because although they can be cured and saved, no action is taken because there is no money for it. That must mean one thing. Since we all know that the health contribution after the changes of PiS is already very painful, in fact, it is a very repressive tax, especially for entrepreneurs, so unfortunately, but there is no other way, the state’s constitutional obligation to provide health care are taken seriously by the state. Today we have to use all the powers we have, in a sense to test all hospitals, treat everyone who needs it, save the lives and health of everyone you can provide it to, and it’s the state’s job to rationalize the funding system so that lack of money is not the cause of death or untreated illness
– added.
We’re working on it now, calculating the cost, we’re going to talk to other experts. But this is the first step we must take. No one can die because the National Health Fund does not fund any procedure in the hospital
he stressed.
