He sent an extra court to his administration for his recent surprise decision on the collection of the clawback. As the ISA reports in its communication, the EEAP decision “dramatically overturns the financial budget of health providers and leads medical, private clinics, polyiatry, diagnostic centers and physiotherapist to a lock”. The Board of Directors of the ISA at its last meeting endorsed the decisions of the Assembly of Health Providers, on 3 October 2024, to step up the mobilisation and exhaustion of all legal instruments in the claim to abolish clawback and write off debts. In this context, the ISA sent a letter to EOPY today on the ‘Suspension of the 208 decision of the Board of Directors of the EOPY’, pointing out, inter alia, that it requested the leadership of the Ministry of Health to be informed of the decision to collect clawbacks at 65% of each of the months of September, October and November 2023, gradually within nine months, with a time when the payment to be made in September 2024 and an end time in May 2025, with a corresponding retention for each month of payment will begin. According to the ISA, “this decision does not exist in the Transparency and no one has access to it in order to take note of its content and legal and substantive breakdown”. In addition, the ISA requested the management of the EEAY, for reasons of transparency and substantial information to the providers, to send it ‘directly the full text of the minutes of this decision to inform its members’. The ISA mentions a “indifference of the EEAY”, saying it did not respond to its request and calls on the EEAY administration to respond directly to its requests and without further delay. The Board of Directors of the ISA declares that it reserves all its legal rights to defend doctors who are contracted with EOPY.
