Rogobete îl contrazice pe Bolojan în disputa bugetului Sănătății: „Am început cu o tăiere de 5 miliarde de lei”

Alexandru Rogobete, the new Minister of Health, criticized former Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan's statements about the 2026 health budget allocation. Rogobete stated that the Ministry initially requested over 27 billion lei but had to work with reduced resources due to budget deficit measures. He emphasized that emergency medical services cannot be uniformly reduced without considering actual system needs. Rogobete highlighted the risks of budget cuts and clarified that budget requests are made by chapters, not at the minister's discretion. He presented a document from February 2026 to support his claims about funding needs. Additionally, he noted that ambulance services were exempt from a 10% budget cut, indicating the challenges of balancing deficit reduction with public service financing needs.
