PASYKI Raises Concerns Over Instability in Hospital Administration

PASYKI expresses strong concerns regarding the ongoing instability in the administration of public hospitals. The organization states that a recurring pattern of resignations and non-renewals of contracts in key administrative positions is observed, creating prolonged vacancies. PASYKI argues that administrative autonomy, promoted as a reform, has not been accompanied by adequate oversight and accountability mechanisms, effectively becoming an excuse for shirking responsibility. The organization questions who is currently exercising real management of the hospitals and who is taking responsibility for the inability to staff and support a stable administrative structure. Prolonged instability undermines the functional capacity of the system, hinders strategic planning, and jeopardizes the quality of healthcare provided. PASYKI emphasizes that public hospitals are critical public infrastructure and the state has a constitutional obligation to ensure their administrative adequacy. Oversight should not be merely cosmetic but substantial. If there is no immediate and meaningful intervention, PASYKI warns that the autonomy reform could lead to the disintegration of public hospitals, rather than their revitalization.
