The Health Insurance Fund recently announced a call for private institutions to submit offers, in order to conclude contracts for the provision of health care in the field of allergy and immunology in 2015.
For months, parents could not take their children to see a pediatric allergist because there were no such doctors at the Institute for Children's Diseases of the Clinical Center of Montenegro (KCCG).
After the only children's allergist left KCCG, parents were forced to go to doctors in private clinics, and they claim that they could not reimburse the costs of the examination in the Fund.
According to the public call, the state needs specialist-consultative and diagnostic services in allergology and immunology, which includes the first and control examination by a doctor, as well as testing of skin hypersensitivity to inhaled allergens (allergological prick testing).
"Services are provided based on the instructions of the chosen doctor for children up to 15 years of age or the chosen doctor for adults," it says in the public invitation.
Health Minister Budimir Šegrt said last week that KCCG lacks doctors for children's orthopedics, ophthalmology and neurosurgery. He then pointed out that the Human Resources Plan, which is for the period 2013-2022. adopted by the Government, determined an increase in the number of specialists in the health system.
