Dr. Ivan Madjarov: Can not only doctors are responsible for health, there is also the patient
" The tendency all the burden on the health of the nation and of each individual to be carried by the medical community and somewhat from the state. Still shyly remember the fact that the responsibilities of the individual are extremely low "_. This was stated by the Chairman of the BLS Dr. Ivan Madjarov during the round table dedicated to the National Cardiovascular Plan, organized by the Bulgarian Cardiologists and Capital Society on the eve of World Heart Day.
He gave an example with the lack of a mechanism to stimulate the greater prophylaxis "we should go to a model where each responsibility for any prophylaxis should be carried by his side. This can not be done only by the doctors, "said the President of the BLS. At the same time Dr. Madjarov pointed out that only until last year the NHIF did not fund all the necessary prophylactic examinations
Dr. Madjarov also stopped the fact that patients did not follow the recommendations of specialists for a healthy lifestyle and denial of harmful habits as tobacco.
According to him, superships are largely due to the fact that patients are hospitalized in medical institutions that do not provide contemporary high-tech hospital care. "They virtually distort statistics. 30% of hospitalizations are in hospitals left at the level of 30 years ago, "he said, commenting that the population of Bulgaria needs high-tech help. In every home in every corner of the country there must be access to medical care, he thinks.
The Chair of the BLS added and that better financing of outpatient care activities is needed.
