TREVISO. The reorganization of basic medicine has not yet found full realization in the provincial territory and presents some critical issues. CGIL Treviso reports the main warning lights of the province of Treviso: “Shortage of general practitioners due to the critical issues due to the planning and organization of the outpost of primary care: retirements, absence of timely replacements, high average age (52 years) of doctors who are still practicing, reduced percentage of doctors who have structured themselves in MGI or MG ». From 2011 to 2021, 185 white coats were lost in the province of Treviso.
In Ulss 2, the union points out, 14% of general practitioners work in the 10 Integrated Group Medicines and assist 16% of the total number of users. «The forecasts of the DGR. n ° 751 “Development of Primary Care through the dissemination of the Integrated Group Medicine model” are disregarded – underlines CGIL – as it was expected that in 2018, more than 60% of general practitioners would work in an evolved associative form “.
Furthermore, in continuity medicine, 90% of the staff are temporary. “From the point of view of patients – concludes CGIL Treviso – critical issues emerge with respect to access to care, to the time reserved for assistance, especially if the number of patients per treating physician is further increased. Furthermore, the risk of disparity in assistance is very high when the organization of territorial medicine, compared to primary care, presents differences ».
