ALESSANDRO MONDO – 19/05/2016 – LA STAMPA

Reduction of waiting lists, cutting of wards and primary care units, balanced budgets, humanisation of treatment paths in hospitalization structures, centralization of analysis laboratories, territorial assistance plans, prescriptive appropriateness on pharmaceuticals (with particular reference to 11 categories of drugs ), reduction in the number of cesarean deliveries, timeliness of hip fracture operations and coronary angioplasties, implementation of the Oncology Network and strengthening of screenings, increase in organ donations, implementation of new fire and anti-seismic regulations.

DIRECTORS UNDER CONTROL

These are the objectives that the Region, on the basis of certified budgets, assigns to the directors of the Piedmontese ASL within this year: under penalty of forfeiture from office. Today the illustration by the President of the Region, Sergio Chiamparino, of the Councilor for Health, Antonio Saitta, e del direttore generale della Sanità, Fulvio Moirano. «I direttori non solo dovranno dimostrare di aver rispettato nel corso del 2016 gli obiettivi assegnati ma anche di aver lavorato in modo uniforme sul tutto il territorio piemontese, con un coordinamento continuativo – ha spiegato Saitta -: a giugno, settembre e dicembre ci saranno tre step di verifica per monitorare l’avanzamento dell’attività».

CLEAR ADDRESSES

As Chiamparino explained, «it is the first time that objectives have been assigned having already defined the financial budget, thanks to the allocation of the national fund carried out in recent months: in the recent past, the directors of the health care units were often assigned objectives also in the last month of the year of evaluation and with a choice of great generality».
