Munich (dpa / lby) - Bavaria wants to reduce bureaucracy in care. Health Minister Klaus Holetschek (CSU) announced in the Allgäuer Zeitung (Saturday) that a model project would start in all seven Bavarian administrative districts in the new year. In two clinics each, it should be examined how nursing staff can be relieved of unnecessary tasks. "If that works, these houses could be a nationwide role model," Holetschek told the newspaper.
According to the Ministry of Health, it is not yet clear which hospitals will be involved in the model project. The concept will be developed at the beginning of next year with the medical service of the health insurance companies.
The escalating bureaucracy is considered one of the main reasons that the nursing professions have become less attractive. For example, employees find the extensive documentation requirements to be a great burden, the newspaper continues. Holetschek demanded that Federal Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach (SPD) make 2023 the year of major care reforms. "He has our support."
