The Hungarian Medical Chamber is asked to stand in solidarity with them and not participate in the implementation of the law, which implies a significant increase in doctors’ salaries.

They only had four hours to comment, but that was not the only reason why the Hungarian Chamber of Health Professionals (MESZK) did not support the law on the legal status of health services. The Chamber of Experts addressed the Hungarian Medical Chamber in an open letter, asking its President to stand in solidarity with them, not to accept the law in its current form and “in no way” participate in its implementation.

MESZK – as they wrote in the open letter sent to hvg.hu – has a problem not with the medical salary table, but with the fact that the new law does not allow the faculty to have a second or third job, although many employees In in this case, they can only guarantee your financial security.

According to the Chamber of Workers, the law will place workers in an unfair and disadvantageous position, making patient care precarious and making institutions impossible. By the way, health professionals who reported to hvg.hu already warned about this when the proposal was published.

Implementing a salary agreement in such a one-sided way and schedule, supplemented by employment restrictions, can result in massive livelihood difficulties, career dropouts, and even leaving the country. Our staff must be retained, as Hungarian patients can only personally receive Hungarian-speaking staff, they wrote.

The law, which provides for a significant increase in doctors’ salaries but is expected to embarrass workers due to conflict of interest rules and penalizes both accepting and handing over money in appreciation, has already been voted on by the parliament on Tuesday.


The number of independent publishing offices of power is steadily declining, and those that still exist are trying to stay afloat with a growing headwind. At HVG we persevere, we don’t give in to pressure and we bring national and international news every day.

That is why we ask you, our readers, to stand by us, support us, join our membership and renew it!

And we promise to keep doing our best for you in all circumstances!
