(10 months ago)The Kosovo Federation of Health Union has accepted today the Constitutional Court's act in the case of KO 141/24 in terms of assessing the constitutionality of the No. 01-233 Kosovo Hospital Service and University Clinic. FSSHK points out that this act is a victory for public health, for citizens and all health and hospital management workers [...]
The FSSHK stresses that this act is a victory for public health, for citizens and all health and administrative workers of the country's General Hospitals.
“F The SSHK remains committed to protecting rights and alert in the identity of violations and legal protection”, the report said.
In its act, the Constitution has found that Article 1 of Article 11 (the organisation of health services in general hospitals) of the Statut No. 012023 for Hospital Service and University Clinic, adopted through the Kosovo government's No.29/180 decision, dated December 27, 2023, is not in accordance with Article 1 paragraph 7 and paragraph 4 of the 92rd constitution of the Republic of Kosovo.
The decision argues that the Law on Mental Health clearly stipulates that mental care should be offered at a second level through general hospitals, which is actually excluded on the Statut service list.
The Constitution ordered that this paragraph be changed and, until then, mental care services be offered according to current law. /Periscope
