MoH did not tighten up the surveillance of decubitis

After two years old promise of former Minister of Health Ivan Uhliarik (KDH) about better monitoring of decubitis in hospitals, only present Minister of Health Zuzana Zvolenská came with the Government ordinance these days. According to daily SME, the improvement is minimal; whereas the new government ordinance only amplifies the scale of decubitis ranking and the key parameter which accounts their occurrence did not change. On the present, there are some hospitals which do not report any decubitis during all year to the health insurances companies. The better reporting should be guaranteed by new legal standards of the Ministry, which it is allegedly already working on.
