‘Worsening trend, we will see it with the next data’ The reasons for the flight Boom of layoffs in the last 3 years

by admin

Rome, May 12 (beraking latest news Salute) – More than 3000 doctors resigned from the hospital in 2019 to seek professional fulfillment and better quality of life in the private sector or on the territory. But in 10 years they have increased by 81%. This is what emerges from a study by Anaao Assomed, the association of executive doctors.

“These numbers – warns the medical union – are an alarm signal regarding the beginning of the end of the public and universal health system as we know it, which simply does not exist without its doctors. If politics does not intervene, and quickly, for motivate, enhance, reward and retain hospital doctors – Anaao points out – hospitals will become theatrical scenes even if they are modernized from a technological and digital point of view and made resistant to earthquakes. But not to those caused by the flight of skills and knowledge “.

In 2019, from the data of the Treasury’s annual account, 2.9% of hospital doctors decided to resign, to leave their jobs before retiring, to resign. This is 3,123 white coats. 2.9% represents the national average, but the phenomenon has affected some Regions more than others: in the Marche, for example, in 2019, 6.6% of hospital doctors resigned, followed by Veneto with 5.9%, then Valle d’Aosta (3.8%) and Piedmont (3.5%). The Regions in which voluntary resignations are greater are those of the North: it is possible that the reason is to be found in the greater job opportunities in private hospitalization or in the free professional sector. If the Marche stands out in the center, in the south are Campania and Calabria.

If we then analyze the trend of the last 10 years, the data are alarming: the percentage of doctors who have discharged from hospitals – highlights the study – is increasing in almost all Italian regions. In absolute numbers, it has gone from an Italian average of 1,849 doctors discharged in 2009 to 3,123 in 2019. But if we analyze the discharges in relation to the total number of dependent doctors, in Italy it has gone from 1.6% of discharged in 2009 to 2.9% in 2019. In 10 years, therefore, the number of doctors who resign have increased by 81%. In Veneto, resignations in 10 years have quintupled, reaching the number of 465 in 2019. In Lombardy, which in 2009 already counted high numbers, resignations increased by 2.5 times, in the Marche and Piedmont by more than 3 times .

Finally, if we analyze the trend, it should be noted how the curve of the redundancies has risen in the last 3 years. In particular, in the Marche from 2017 to 2019 the number of doctors who resigned almost tripled, in Lazio and Campania it more than doubled. Veneto, Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, despite starting from very high absolute numbers, in 3 years have increased the number of doctors who have resigned respectively by 115%, 50% and 66%.

There are many problems in the hospital – underlines Anaao – the cut in staff and the shortage of specialists have created ever smaller staff, making the workload unsustainable. The presence of women in health care is progressively increasing and the uncomfortable shifts provided by hospital work do not allow, especially for them, to devote themselves to the family as they would like. Bureaucratic work – Anaao points out – has become intolerable. Decision-making autonomy is debased, professionalism is not rewarded and not at all encouraged, involvement in decision-making processes is absent, their work – the firm lists – has lost value, even economic, such as their social role.

And again: loneliness in the face of all the shortcomings and organizational deficiencies is heavy to tolerate, the risk of legal complaints and verbal and physical assaults has increased over the years, career ambitions have been made scarce: in Italy in 2009 the directors of complex structure, that is the peak of the professional career, were 9,691, in 2019 only 6,629, 31.5% less. The managers of Simple Structure, the level immediately below, in 2009 were 18,536, after 10 years 44% less, that is 10,368.

In these conditions – underlines the study – the private sector becomes increasingly attractive, also due to the possibility of a subsidized tax treatment of the income produced and family or specialist outpatient medicine due to the fact that they do not know night and holiday work. The hope is above all to have a less bureaucratic, more autonomous job, with more flexible hours. Hospital doctors – the Anaao analysis denounces – feel like pawns to cover shifts, to which they can send service orders, ask to make up for the deficiencies of the system, from which to expect ever greater production and efficiency. Not part of a project, but marginal, replaceable elements that weigh on the budget when they are sick, pregnant or on leave, even for training reasons.

The data from the Treasury’s annual account allow us to photograph the resignations of medical executives only until 2019. But, we can bet – warns Anaao – that the Covid-19 pandemic will aggravate the spills. And we will probably see it from 2021, because in 2020 the spirit of service has certainly postponed the choice to resign. During the emergency, the executives showed a sense of self-denial, but conditions and workloads did not improve with the months. While the fatigue, the sense of frustration and helplessness, up to the physical and psychological burnout have worsened. From heroes of the first wave they have become the subject of attacks, criticisms, sometimes complaints, in the later stages.

The figures for voluntary layoffs, which are getting worse every year, seem like a cry for help. And if it is true that in colleagues a great passion for their work survives – concludes the medical union – it is also true that many are looking for places other than the public hospital to carry it out. And more than half is seen out in the next two years.
