The government has decided to postpone the discussion of Bill No. 54.23, which seeks to amend and supplement Law No. 65.00 on compulsory basic health insurance, to a future government session.
This delay aims to allow for a more in-depth review of the bill and ensure ample time for its revision, guaranteeing that the most appropriate decisions are made.
In an official statement given by Mustapha Baitas, the government spokesperson and Minister Delegate in charge of Relations with Parliament, following the government meeting held on Thursday, September 19, 2024, it was clarified that the government chose to defer the study of the bill to a later date to thoroughly examine all aspects of the proposed amendments and introduce any necessary improvements before submitting it for discussion and voting.
The bill aims to strengthen the legal framework of compulsory basic health insurance by introducing significant amendments to the existing Law No. 65.00. These changes come as part of the broader effort to enhance and expand health coverage for citizens and address the challenges facing the current health insurance system.
Additionally, the new bill includes specific provisions designed to improve citizens’ protection and ensure their access to necessary healthcare services. These amendments align with the government’s broader strategy to reform the healthcare system and promote social justice in the area of health coverage.
The decision to postpone the review of the bill reflects the government’s cautious approach to making any changes, ensuring that potential complications in its implementation are avoided. It also demonstrates the government’s desire to consult with all relevant stakeholders to ensure broad consensus on the proposed reforms.
This postponement underscores the significance of the bill, which is part of the comprehensive reforms aimed at strengthening the social protection system and improving citizens’ access to healthcare services.
The bill is expected to be revisited in an upcoming government meeting, where discussions will be completed, and final amendments will be made before it is presented to Parliament for approval.
