Opening speeches
"The COVID-19 pandemic has fully shown the state of our Slovak healthcare system, which urgently needs reform. My team at the ministry is working hard on the groundbreaking systematic changes that many previous governments have attempted several times over the past 17 years, but to no avail. We have a reform that will bring patients high-quality, targeted healthcare, which means more lives saved and a reduction in avoidable deaths, and doctors, nurses and other health professionals have better conditions for their work at our fingertips. The motivation is all the greater because it is followed by the historic much-needed investment in the reconstruction and construction of hospitals with European money - the Recovery and Resilience Plan. In addition to managing the pandemic and protecting the health and lives of people in connection with COVID-19, my team at the ministry is working on other important changes, such as drug policy and many other areas.“
