The Financial Maneuver presented in Parliament has resulted in a €20 annual increase in the Rai fee, while plans for hiring 30,000 healthcare workers and salary increases have been scrapped, provoking protests from medical associations. Additionally, minimum pensions will see only a €3 monthly increase, with no changes to pension flexibility or the equalization cut for higher paychecks.
Protests are escalating over proposed financial cuts affecting health care, local government, and research, with critics demanding a review of the government's figures. Premier Giorgia Meloni defends the measures, while Health Minister Orazio Schillaci points out unspent resources meant to address waiting lists. Labor unions, supported by political factions, warn of severe impacts, including a potential general strike against the cuts.
The Italian government's allocation of 3.7 billion euros for healthcare has sparked outrage among medical professionals and opposition parties, who argue that the funds are insufficient to address critical needs. Union leaders warn that the proposed budget will exacerbate existing issues in public health, while the government claims it is the largest investment in healthcare to date. Critics, including the Gimbe Foundation, emphasize that without immediate and substantial funding, access to care will increasingly become a privilege rather than a right.
Hospital doctors are preparing for protests over proposed healthcare funding, claiming that the allocation of only 880 million euros for 2025 is insufficient. The Ministry of Economy disputes this, stating an increase of 2.366 billion euros is expected. Concerns persist about the effective use of the 3.7 billion euros planned for healthcare, with calls for immediate salary increases for medical staff.
In 2025, the Italian government plans to allocate an additional €2.3 billion for healthcare, with €1.245 billion coming from new measures. Despite earlier expectations of higher funding, the Ministry of Economy clarified that the total includes previous allocations, with a focus on hiring 30,000 healthcare workers and improving the National Health Fund. However, significant hiring may be delayed until 2026 due to the timing of these measures.
Health Minister Orazio Schillaci announced a three-year plan to hire over 30,000 nurses, addressing a critical shortage in Italy's healthcare system. A 21 million euro fund for antibiotic research was also unveiled, alongside plans to increase healthcare funding from 2 to 3 billion euros. Additionally, a protocol for the entry of Indian nurses is nearing completion to bolster staffing levels.
Health Minister Orazio Schillaci announced a three-year plan to hire over 30,000 healthcare workers, prioritizing nurses due to critical shortages. The budget aims for 2-3 billion euros to support this initiative, alongside measures to improve pay and conditions for medical staff. Additionally, a protocol to recruit Indian nurses is in the works to bolster territorial healthcare.
The Italian government is tightening its spending review while ensuring no cuts to healthcare, with a target of 2 billion euros in savings for 2025. Health Minister Orazio Schillaci anticipates an increase in healthcare funding by 2-2.5 billion euros, emphasizing the need for effective allocation across the country. The Programmatic Budget Document is expected soon, outlining the maneuver's main actions ahead of the October deadlines set by Europe.
The government has approved a decree law to enhance protections for health care workers, allowing for immediate and deferred arrests for assaults against them. The law also imposes harsher penalties for damaging property in health facilities, aiming to deter violence and ensure safety in medical environments. Additionally, discussions on video surveillance regulations in hospitals are ongoing, with plans for future implementation.
