Small hospitals made an agreement with insurance companies

Association of Hospitals in Slovakia has adopted the proposals of Všeobecná zdravotná poisťovňa (General Health Insurance Company) and health insurance company Union for the adjustment of contracts from the beginning of April this year. Association has recommended its members to sign the amendments to the contracts with the state insurance company if the submitted proposal will be in the intentions of agreed adjustments. In case of insurance company Union, members should sign the amendments, if the offered increasing of prices will be reflected in the increased amount. Adjustments of contracts should help hospitals to cover the increasing of salaries of healthcare professionals set by the law.
