Slovenia Introduces Incentives to Address Primary Care Physician Shortage
The Slovenian government is implementing a supplement for employees in pediatric and family medicine clinics facing high patient volumes, as part of a December 2023 health reform aimed at improving medical coverage. To address the shortage of primary care physicians, students entering this field will receive a monthly stipend of 1,000 euros. Additionally, the government has decided to cancel the purchase of Boxer armored vehicles, incurring a 4 million euro penalty, which is significantly less than the projected costs of the original agreement.
