Bulgarian Politician Condemns Lack of Transparency in Healthcare Spending

Bulgaria: Ruling Majority Criticized for Lack of Transparency in Healthcare Spending A recent press conference revealed sharp criticism of Bulgaria's ruling majority for their handling of the National Health Insurance Fund budget. A politician, whose name has not been released, highlighted their failure to implement a system that would allow citizens to monitor how the fund's money is spent. He stated that this lack of transparency is unacceptable and could lead to misuse of public funds. "The ruling majority has blocked our proposal to allow citizens to control spending," said the politician. "This is a serious issue that affects every citizen in the country. We need more transparency and accountability." The politician proposed an alternative solution: an SMS notification system that would keep citizens informed about the fund's expenditures. He believes this would increase transparency and ensure that the money is used effectively and for its intended purpose. The ruling majority has yet to respond to these criticisms.
