Hesse: Doctors demonstrate against health policy

Frankfurt/Main (dpa/lhe) - Hessian patients have to prepare for another doctors' strike this week. In protest against the current health policy, thousands of doctors want to close their practices this Wednesday (11 a.m.) and demonstrate together in Frankfurt. According to the medical associations, practice teams from all over Hesse are expected.

Under the motto "We see black for the future of your care", the health workers want to demonstrate for better pay and inflation compensation. The associations are also calling for the reintroduction of the new patient regulation, which was abolished on January 1 of this year, which gave doctors financial incentives to take on new patients.
