The National Assembly obliged the Minister of Health to take measures to prevent violence against medics. It is planned that a specialized electronic system will be created within four months, through which the medics can signal about cases of violence. 

On the basis of the collected data, high-risk areas will be identified in order for additional protection measures to be taken, including the provision of devices such as panic buttons, which medical specialists can use to notify the authorities of the Ministry of Interior.
