Digitization will not only be related to strengthening the control of the processes in the system, and there will be a database that will allow us to take adequate decisions, he added. When talking about digitization and reforms, we need to discuss the problem of what kind of staffing we apply them, he said.
We are at the critical point of the staff environment and we do not have a useful exit if in the next year two do not take measures to tackle the staff deficit, Dr. Madjarov added. In response to a question whether telemedicine can help better care in the context of the lack of staff Dr. Madjarov pointed out that telemedicine is currently not present as a priority issue. The workflow is now aimed at this very far at the moment currently fragmented processes to be included in a common information product, he added.
