Authorities from south Moldova Gagauz autonomy to increase allowances for young specialists in medicine
Chisinau, 2 December /MOLDPRES/ - The authorities of the Gagauz-Yeri Autonomous Territorial Unit plan, starting from the next year, to increase the one-off allowances meant for young specialists in the medicine sector. The autonomy’s vice-governor for social issues, Olesea Tanasoglo, has made statements to this effect to the regional media.
„Each specialist who has come to work in hospitals of UTA Gagauz-Yeri in 2019 received 50,000 lei. One can ascertain that this sum is not attractive enough for the young physicians who see themselves in this guild. Therefore, in 2020, we will re-evaluate the sum of this allowance, as well as the conditions needed for attracting young specialists in the health care system from the autonomy,” Olesea Tanasoglo said, quoted by the website www.gagauzinfo.md.
For their part, physicians from the region say that an increased material assistance might stipulate the young specialists.
„This is a motivation and it is good that the authorities do their utmost to attract as many as possible young specialists in the medical institutions from the autonomy. Presently, we have free units in the consultative section; we do not have ophthalmologist. The otolaryngologist is of retirement age and often falls ill. For this reason, the medical services provided are not of the quality expected by the residents,” the director of the Comrat district hospital, Nina Railean, has said.
The manager noted that more applications to this end had been submitted to the competent ministry, “hoping that, sooner or later, this problem will be solved.”
Official data shows that Moldova has a deficit of about 300 family physicians and according to the needs of the population, over 2,000 specialists in medicine are necessary.
