The proposal to eliminate the HIF contradictory: such a decision will impose on regions of excessive load, it is necessary to develop an insurance model of medical care, the head of the Fund Natalia Stadchenko.
Earlier media reported that Senator Sergei Kalashnikov stated the need to abolish the HIF and financing of medical care translate to the Federal and regional levels.
“It seems to me that dear Kalashnikov in his speech contradicts himself because he says that in the era of global shortage, which now is of the subjects, it is necessary to eliminate the mandatory medical insurance Fund and transfer it all on the Federal and regional budgets. Regional budgets with this excessive load simply will not cope,” — said to journalists on Friday Stadchenko.
In addition, she noted that “it is the position of a Senator who has nothing to do with the common position of the Council of the Federation”.
The head of the Fund also recalled that Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly in the message to Federal meeting spoke about the development of the insurance model. And on numerous discussions on this issue, it was determined that under current conditions it is necessary to develop the existing form of provision of medical aid to the population, since the destruction of one system and the transition to another “will only lead to stagnation.”
