PM Edi Rama has reacted after the continuous protests that are being organized by medical professionals at the Hospital of Trauma, who are asking for the release from jail of their two colleagues. The prime minister said that every public institution will be appointed individuals that will be responsible for the denouncement of cases of bribery while calling the call for a ‘legalization of tips’ an act of shamelessness.
“Saying that it is time we legalized bribes, is a true and significant message of the absolute necessity of the anti-corruption movements in all of our public system, which has begun to be felt and will spread even deeper. In addition, there can never be an absolute relativization of the medical staff, as the perception that they are all the same is false. Not all of them put their money in the pockets of family members and patients,” said the head of state.
He added that the healthcare system has seen several changes in the past 4 years, but that this doesn’t mean that no work is being done in order to increase the benefits of doctors and nurses, in order to achieve the 40% raise that has been promised.
PM Rama stated that the “healthcare system is the vanguard of the transformation process” while adding that that the aim to achieve the autonomy of hospitals, is an instrument needed to increase its capacity.
