Marta Temido acknowledged that the exponential increase in cases can again condition the SNS response with respect to consultations, exams or surgeries.

Non-covid-19 patients who see consultations, exams or surgeries at the National Health Service (SNS) serem unmarked in the face of the worsening pandemic will be directed to the private and social sectors, guaranteed this Monday, 26, the Minister of Health, Marta Temido.

At a press conference at the Ministry of Health, in Lisbon, the Minister of Health emphasized that the recovery of care activity for patients with other pathologies had “only a difference of 600,000 consultations between urgent and non-urgent in primary health care until September compared to the homologous period, in a volume of 31 million ”, but he acknowledged that the exponential increase in cases may again condition the SNS response.

“The recovery effort was significant. In hospitals, the scenario was also of improvement, but not so advantageous. And we had programs for the recovery of care activities with direct incentives for health professionals. But, if that doesn’t arrive – and admitting that it doesn’t, in view of the deprogramming of activity that we will have to do – referral to the other sectors agreed upon will occur according to whatever the needs and interests of the patients are ”, he stated.

Marta Temido assumed that “the government is considering and starting to implement measures in which the deprogramming of assistance activity may lead to patients being channeled to other sectors” of activity.

… we have a little message to share with you. More and more people read NOTÍCIAS MAIA, a digital newspaper, leader of audiences. Unlike other news outlets, we chose not to make readers pay to read our news, keeping access to information as free as possible. So, as you can see, we need your support.

In order to be able to present you with more and better information, to include more reports and interviews and to use an increasingly developed platform and other means, such as video, we need your help.

NOTÍCIAS MAIA is an independent media organization (and always will be). This is important so that we can freely confront any and all types of power (political, economic or religious) whenever necessary.

We think that if each person who reads and likes to read the NEWS MAIA, supports the future of our project, it will be increasingly important for the development of the society we share, at the regional level. For dissemination, sharing and inspection.

So, for as little as € 1, you can support NEWS MAIA – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
