Rrrgh what's the point of having a veto when these EU-cum-lickers never use it! They wouldn't hold this poo poo back for Finland's demand of ten million tons more, they got too much negative EU press for another debacle. We've done our due diligence in regards to forest management while Poland is cutting down prehistoric forests, we are well within our rights to tell them to gently caress off.

True Finns and Blue Future are in a war of words again. Timo Soini is writing in his ploki that TF are going thru BF's member cards and kicking out any TF member who is found amongst the signers, calling such behavior "STASI-like". Indeed, there have been some movement from TF to BF, with some old guard moving out. Now that they've collected all the necessary member cards to register themselves as an actual party, we'll see how blue the future will be. Is there room for a racist-free populist-nationalist party?

MAANANTAINA koolla olleen asiantuntijaryhmän pelkona ei niinkään ole se, että suomalaiset asiakkaat haluaisivat siirtyä julkiselta puolelta laumoittain yksityiselle – monihan on varsin tyytyväinen julkisiin erikoissairaanhoidon palveluihin. Suurempi pelko on se, että lääkärit ja muu hoitohenkilökunta siirtyvät.

Yksityisillä on julkisia enemmän pelivaraa houkutella ammattilaisia rahalla ja työajoilla. Tämä voisi pahimmillaan vaarantaa julkisen sektorin velvollisuutena olevan päivystyksen.

The experts (none of whom was named): "The big problem here is that if people are allowed to choose their healthcare provider, we might have to pay doctors and nurses better wages which means we might have to actually become efficient, like the private sector. That is bad."

quote:

Toinen esiin noussut huoli liittyy perustuslakiin. Jos maakunnat velvoitetaan antamaan asiakasseteleitä, se saattaa kaventaa niiden päätösvaltaa. Tulevien maakuntien on tarkoitus olla itsehallinnollisia yksiköitä, jotka päättävät itse asioistaan.

Joissakin maakunnissa omat julkiset palvelut voivat lisäksi vaarantua, jos maakuntien on pakko myöntää asiakasseteleitä tiettyjen ehtojen täyttyessä.
More concerns from the experts: "If we let people choose, that will lower the ability of the local governments to choose for them"


Meanwhile, actual experts (not mentioned in any of your articles, quelle surprise): http://vatt.fi/artikkeli/-/asset_publisher/valinnanvapaudesta-voi-olla-hyotya-myos-erikoissairaanhoidossa

That's a pretty dishonest read of that criticism. The point is that Mehiläinen et al. will hoard expert surgeons etc. so they can sell surgeries to geriatric Russian oligarchs, while pihtiputaan mummo doesn't have decent doctors even in loving päivystys. Health care shouldn't be run on a for profit basis.

Sipilä is apparently in trouble with his own party. There's been indications of that before, but it's probably getting serious now that the Incest League is tanking in the polls hard and Sipilä's incompetence at everything is apparent.

There is nothing that keeps Mehiläinen from hiring surgeons to cut open Russian oligarchs today (also, Finland isn't exactly a hub for medical tourism, you're taking a tiny issue and making it much bigger than it seems). If Mehiläinen can hire surgeons to operate on high networth patients who are willing to pay more, they can already do it today. The proposed reform would not pay Mehiläinen more per surgery than it would the local hospital, so if Mehiläinen can still hire doctors for more, it is either the result of improved efficiency (good) or Mehiläinen's shareholders accepting a loss (also good).

What's the problem with the private sector taking on certain parts of the system, doing them more efficiently and leaving others for the government? I mean that's the job of the government, to provide essential services that the private sector doesn't want to provide.

Ah, yes, teenage communist 101: People (especially poor people) are too dumb to make decisions, so the government should make all of them.

I'm not an expert on aviation but I can still pick which airlines to fly. I'm not an expert on car safety, yet somehow I can still decide which car to drive. I'm not a biologist, but I can still pick which foods I want to eat without getting poisoned. Maybe it's just luck, but somehow these things seem to work out with the government serving as a supervisor instead of a producer.

Then there are the mountains of evidence showing that ability to choose (in many cases, not all) leads to much higher patient satisfaction and generally better outcomes. See the VATT article posted for references. You probably won't, though.

You do realize that people are making these decisions without any problems already? You'll probably do it when deciding which provider to get your certificate of health for your driver's license in a few years.

This is about giving the same choice, currently enjoyed mainly by the rich, to everyone. It's not about letting people decide which operations they want to have, it's letting then choose the doctor for them.

Right, so pure politics of envy, then.

The government saves money by letting the private sector do some things. The private sector benefits. Consumers benefit. The only people who suffer are those who really dislike others doing well.
