The Minister of Health, Alexandru Rogobete, announced plans to improve the payment system for medical on-call duties, proposing progressive rates for additional shifts. This change aims to better compensate doctors for their workload, especially for those working multiple shifts in a month. Additionally, resident doctors, including first-year trainees, will also be compensated for their on-call duties. The proposed changes are expected to be implemented within the first three months of Rogobete's mandate, pending necessary legislative adjustments. The minister also discussed reorganizing on-call duties in hospitals and extending operating hours to reduce patient wait times.
