The Polish Senate has passed legislation to streamline the National Oncology Network, replacing paper records with electronic systems and reducing administrative burdens for hospitals across the country. <\/p>\n
The Senate voted 55 to zero in favor of the bill, with 28 abstentions, moving the legislation to the desk of President Karol Nawrocki. The new law eliminates redundant administrative duties, such as the requirement for hospitals to maintain separate oncology hotlines, consolidating these into the general National Health Fund (NFZ) system.<\/p>\n
A central pillar of the reform is the full digitalization of the diagnostic process. By the end of 2026, the paper-based DiLO card will be entirely replaced by an electronic version integrated into the national healthcare system, linking cancer treatment accounting directly to digital record-keeping.<\/p>\n
Deputy Health Minister Katarzyna K\u0119cka stated that these changes will ensure patient diagnosis within 14 days, with extended diagnostics completed within 21 days. The act also mandates the role of an oncology care coordinator as a standard hospital function and optimizes the organization of multidisciplinary therapeutic teams.<\/p>\n
The National Oncology Network remains a priority of the National Oncology Strategy, backed by a 5.2 billion PLN budget for 2020\u20132030. The system aims to provide uniform care standards and comprehensive cancer treatment to patients regardless of their place of residence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
