Ranking of professionals – This party has the best considerations in the field of healthcare

But sometimes they remained just slogans. “We were concerned about the current election manifestos. Because what is not included will not be reflected in the next government program,” the ÖGKV announced on Wednesday. In addition, all parties were approached and asked to share their ideas in healthcare areas, such as measures to combat staff shortages or financing.

The SPÖ came first with eleven out of fifteen possible points. The NEOS are in second place (eight points), just ahead of the two governing parties ÖVP and the Greens (seven points each). The FPÖ comes in fifth place (seven points), while the MFG comes behind with two and a half points.

“Positively surprised”
In short, the team was positively surprised. SPÖ and NEOS are close to their own positions when it comes to demands for free training or more money for long-term care. According to the ÖGKV, the government parties focus more on past successes than on the future. Details are lacking from the FPÖ and the MFG did not respond to questions, it was said.

Regardless of party, the answers were shortest when it came to the financing question. However, this is a prerequisite for all other subjects. The association also misses the requirement to include professional nursing services in social insurance and a plan to improve the reputation of nursing.

“We will take another look at the election manifestos before the elections and see whether the hoped-for improvement has taken place,” Potzmann said.
