"We should start discussing changes in the National Framework Agreement of the National Health Insurance Fund and the healthcare model, aimed at removing the restrictions in financing the clinical pathways", said this country‘s caretaker Minister of Health Stoycho Katsarov at a meeting with the managers of the National Health Insurance Fund and the Bulgarian Medical Association. “We need to discuss changes in the prices of medical services. I will insist on introducing price coefficients for these medical services, because treating a twenty-year-old and a ninety-year-old patient is not one and the same thing", said Minister Katsarov.

Minister Stoycho Katsarov demanded that more activities be transferred from hospital to outpatient care.
