Summary

The purpose of the changes in the bill is to transfer the formation, management, renewal and commissioning of the state's healthcare stock from the Health Board to regional hospitals with state participation. Organizing the storage of the state's healthcare stock at regional hospitals makes it possible to spread out the location of stocks and to reduce or avoid the costs arising from their obsolescence when medicines and equipment are rotated. The location of supplies at regional hospitals makes it easier for them introduction, because in a crisis situation, the treatment load is presumably the highest in those hospitals that will keep stocks according to the planned changes. Regional hospitals are suitable for inventory management because they have professionals with the necessary experience. The reserve formed for the needs of the health care sector, which is part of the state operational reserve (state health reserve) helps ensure the availability of medicines and medical equipment and the continuity of health care in a threatening situation, an emergency situation, a special situation, a state of emergency, a state of heightened defense readiness and a state of war, when the operational resources of hospital and ambulance brigade operators are exhausted.
