The Sejm has passed legislation requiring doctors’ earnings to be linked to their PESEL or professional license numbers, enabling the state to analyze total income across multiple public medical facilities. <\/p>\n
The Sejm passed a law on June 19 that will allow the Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Tariffication (AOTMiT) to link salary data with PESEL numbers or professional license identifiers. This change allows for the identification of practitioners working at several institutions simultaneously.<\/p>\n
The regulation received support from 253 deputies, with no votes against and 177 abstentions. The bill now moves to the Senate and subsequently to the President\u2019s office.<\/p>\n
The new rules mandate that information provided by medical entities will no longer be anonymized. This move aims to grant the state a clearer picture of actual labor costs within the healthcare system.<\/p>\n
Despite concerns, the law does not create a public search engine for doctor salaries or a registry accessible to patients or employers. The data linking is strictly for administrative analysis by state authorities.<\/p>\n
Current reporting only captures income per individual contract, leaving the state blind to total income across multiple public and private providers. Estimates suggest 2,800 to 5,600 doctors may earn over 100,000 PLN monthly, far exceeding current single-facility reporting.<\/p>\n
The legislation was accelerated following reports of record-breaking earnings by individual practitioners, which ignited a national debate regarding transparency and the multi-employment model in public health.<\/p>\n
The Medical Chamber does not oppose transparency but cautions against focusing solely on high-earning outliers. They are calling for a broader dialogue on systemic funding, service valuation, and the national shortage of medical specialists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
