This is an extremely unpleasant case that is reflected in social networks. I have ordered an inspection of the agency “Medical Supervision“. Minister Kirilov said this in response to a question regarding the case with “Maichin Dom“ in connection with a story on social networks of a mother who gave birth in the medical facility.
We will wait for the results of the inspection and analyze the facts and circumstances and then will come up with a management-administrative decision, the Minister of Health also stated.
After a publication on social networks in which a patient claims that she was insulted, beaten and received rude treatment by a doctor at the “Maichin Dom“, the hospital took action itself, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sergey Slavov, Head of the Delivery Room at the Maternity Clinic, told the media yesterday. The hospital's internal inspection has established that a large part of the allegations are untrue, he announced.
Children's Hospital
I am categorical that I will not allow the Children's Hospital to be held hostage to political calculations, intrigues and other actions. An attempt is being made for open manipulation, it is a lie that we are building a golden hospital for 1 billion instead of 100 million leva, the Minister of Health said.
The construction of a National Multi-profile Children's Hospital is a national priority, the goal is to create a medical facility that meets all world standards in child health care, he said. For me as a doctor, it is extremely unfortunate that this key project is becoming an instrument of political wars, the Minister also announced.
Announcing the topics for the vote of no confidence, the chairman of “Continuing the Change“ Assen Vassilev showed journalists a document yesterday, which he said was a request from the Minister of Health to the Minister of Finance to include in the budget for the new children's hospital almost 1 billion leva for the next three years.
