The regional supplementary agreement for general practitioners was signed today at the Regional Health Department, in the presence of the sector unions and Councilor Armando Bartolazzi.
"This is a significant achievement, anticipated for 15 years , and will significantly change the living and working conditions of doctors, providing a fundamental boost to the development of medical infrastructure in the area," explains Councilor Bartolazzi.
The signatories expressed satisfaction with this long-awaited result, which meets the main requests expressed by the category.
The key points of the agreement are:
- Establishment and implementation of the organizational model of the AFT (functional territorial aggregations, groups of general practitioners who collaborate to offer more organized and continuous healthcare, with a care management system capable of curbing inappropriate access to emergency rooms);
- establishment of the AFT allowance equal to 10.7 euros per capita per patient assisted, as per regional law 24/2025 art.9, paragraph 18;
- increase in the IT allowance from 100 to 200 euros per month;
- recognition of the practice assistant allowance (6 euros per patient assisted) to 70% of doctors;
- measures to achieve the PNRR Adi target: general practitioners will have to ensure that at least 10% of their eligible patients are taken care of by the Adi during 2025 and 2026.
Recognition of basic home care remuneration starting January 1st will be tied to achieving this target.
Furthermore, the institution of an allowance for disadvantaged areas due to lack of care, amounting to €2,000 per month, as per Regional Law 24/2025, Article 9, Paragraph 28; the introduction of regulations regarding the presence of a doctor in community homes and community hospitals.
"Among the measures we've adopted, we've also made it mandatory for local health authorities to replace doctors on a single roster who are absent due to illness, maternity leave, or injury. This measure, in particular, was something I strongly supported," Bartolazzi concludes, "to send a concrete signal of support to the profession following the tragic passing of Dr. Maddalena Carta."
