MOSTAR, Jan 16 (FENA) - Commenting on the HNC healthcare workers' demands and announcement of general strike, Prime Minister of the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton (HNC), Nevenko Herceg, told Fena that the financial framework for health care institutions for this year was about KM 133 million, pointing out that only within this amount further negotiations could be conducted.
- The Trade Union requirements can be considered only within this framework by rationalizing business operations and harmonizing the incomes - said Herceg, adding that the healthcare issues pertaining to the HNC Government would be addressed within the Ministry of Health, Labor and Social Welfare.
Herceg recalled once again that it was a very complex legal and financial challenge for which, besides the HNC Government and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Social Welfare, it was necessary to include all relevant factors, such as the HNC Assembly, the HNC Health Insurance Institute, representatives of the founder (the municipality and the City of Mostar), the management of the hospitals and health centers in the HNC.
Also, other co-founders, including the governments of the West/Herzegovina and Herzeg/Bosnian Cantons and their health insurance institutes should be involved, and the Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina need to be included in order to jointly address all outstanding issues.
- As for the health care system in the HNC, the fact is that there are more founders, co-founders, and hence employers. Somewhere it is a local self-government unit, somewhere one or more cantons, and somewhere the Federation, which clearly show that the HNC Government is just one of the employers.
Therefore, it is necessary to include all of them in the process of negotiations, because no one can individually create or take over the financial obligations and impose them on others, as this could lead to additional difficulties in the functioning of the system - concluded the Prime Minister of the HNC, Nevenko Herceg.
