Donald Tusk has convened a meeting with Civic Coalition parliamentarians this Wednesday at the Sejm to discuss session wrap-ups, mobilize for upcoming elections, and address reports of political malpractice in public healthcare.<\/p>\n
The meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, July 15, at approximately 6:00 PM in the Sejm, though the timing remains subject to change based on the Sejm Presidium’s morning agenda. Sources within the coalition suggest the timing is tied to the upcoming summer break, as this week\u2019s session is the second-to-last before September.<\/p>\n
Lawmakers expect the Prime Minister\u2019s address to focus on summarizing legislative achievements and mobilizing the party for next year’s parliamentary elections. Some politicians also anticipate a disciplinary tone, particularly regarding recent media reports concerning special treatment of party members in public medical facilities.<\/p>\n
Public outrage grew after reports alleged that local Civic Coalition politicians demanded priority medical care and special referrals at public clinics. Prime Minister Tusk publicly denounced these practices, expressing disgust and pledging to eradicate such behavior with the full force of his office.<\/p>\n
The government intends to address these systemic issues next week by reviewing new regulations drafted by the Ministry of Health. Proposed changes include capping physician hourly rates at 240 PLN gross, enforcing reporting of working hours to the National Health Fund, and setting maximum work durations for medical professionals on contracts.<\/p>\n
Recent investigations, including those by Wirtualna Polska and the portal Zero, highlighted incidents where local officials allegedly bypassed queues or received rapid diagnostic tests. One notable case involved a hospital in Warsaw where a local councillor allegedly coordinated the ER department, with reports suggesting that fellow party politicians were granted immediate medical access.<\/p>\n
