Conep critical of SFS

[NewsWhore]

Companies are paying more, but their employees are getting much less since the country adopted the SFS, the nationwide health plan. The companies that manage the plan are paying doctors and hospitals less for services provided now under the SFS, and as a result employees or companies now have to pay extra for complementary plans or make higher supplementary payments to doctors to receive the previous levels of service. The National Business Council (CONEP) met yesterday and said that the SFS is but a burden to companies because they pay for a service and their employees do not receive what was promised in services or quality of service. The president of CONEP, Lisandro Macarulla said that the business group has been patient, giving the government time to sort out the initial problems, but that if the situation of lack of fulfillment of health plan services is not resolved soon, they will resort to other measures to demand their rights and those of their employees.
