Parliament approves EUR 2bn in healthcare investment by 2031

By: P.T., STA

The National Assembly endorsed by 68 votes in favour and two against a government-sponsored bill that will secure about EUR 2 billion in investment in Slovenia’s health system over the next ten years.

Investment is planned at all three levels of healthcare; a total of EUR 763 million is earmarked for the country’s two medical centres, EUR 557 million for development and modernisation of general hospitals, nursing hospitals and community health centres across the country. The step is “a guarantee that our healthcare will continue to be public, universal and accessible in 2031”, Health Minister Janez Poklukar had told MPs.
