The Romanian Minister of Health, Vasile Cepoi, explained during an interview, what the new health law will bring to the table. Probably one of the most notable things of this reform is the introduction of private insurers.
“As far as insurance goes, we would like to introduce in the market the competition between private and public insurers, thus giving the ensured individual the option of choice without paying more for the healthcare coverage.
Another implementation regards the reorganization of the mandatory insurance system, which will permit the insured individual to have some control over how the money is spent, and thus bringing the downfall of the monopoly that the National Health Insurance Agency now has.
The National Health Insurance Agency will be reorganized and will have the more of a supervision roleâ€, stated Cepoi in the interview.â€
On a more personal side, I can’t wait to hear the full content of the reform. Till then we can only speculate on behalf of its impact on the current system.
What do you think?
