Amenzi pentru abateri la concedii medicale de 1 milion de lei, găsite de Casele de Asigurări în 2025 - Economica.net
The medical leave granting process underwent significant changes in August 2021 and will see further modifications in August 2025, aimed at reducing abuse. In 2022, health insurance houses imposed fines totaling 1 million lei on doctors for non-compliance with legal provisions. A total of 2,674 doctors were audited, leading to 486 sanctions, including 144 fines. Common violations included incomplete medical follow-up plans and non-compliance with leave duration regulations. New rules require medical leave to be granted in at least two stages, with specific limits on duration. The decision to grant leave rests solely with the attending physician, based on the patient's health status, and cannot be influenced by patient requests.
