Throughout the last legislature, the Abruzzo healthcare system led by Marsilio and Verì produced fewer services, more passive mobility and more debt. Having used all available resources, an urgent regional law had to be resorted to to find 53.9 million, spreading them over the mandatory provisions foreseen for the years 2024/2025/2026.
Funds that the Councilor’s note to the Budget Quaglieri invites the regional Departments to restore it immediately and to do so the various councilors have been asked to urgently proceed with massive cuts in their chapters. Thus, the cuts in the Region’s budget, -18.9 million in 2024, 17.5 in 2025 and 17.5 in 2026, will be added to those in the health sector with the recovery plans that the 4 local health authorities will have to prepare in the next two weeks. , due to the deficit that is already accumulating in 2024. In the meantime, the councilors have been reconfirmed and the managers and administrators responsible for the deficits of the four local health authorities, something that has never happened before, have all remained in their positions, despite the law they should have already lapsed due to the deficit”, the stance of the PD group leader Silvio Paolucci on the healthcare situation of the Marsilio era is harsh.
“It hurts to pay the inefficiency of this management must be the people of Abruzzo who are already forced to migrate out of the region, or to turn to the private sector, or give up treatment and who will lose even more treatments, benefits and services without receiving any investment in exchange – concludes Paolucci -. Yet the regional government at the time of preparing the 2024 budget and as we have repeatedly denounced, already knew about the chaos because there were communications between the two sectors of health and budget, but it did nothing to avoid it. It also remains to be known how the health plan just presented with so many flaws will be implemented, how development will be produced and, also, how other sectors in difficulty and in need of support, agriculture first and foremost, will be able to have them if health care is today the real black hole of Marsilio bis”.
