Khartoum 26 December 2012
The Sudan Medical Association fully rejected the decision of the Ministry of Health to increase operating fees for patients in the hospital. The Ministry ' s resort to the increase was evidence of the State ' s total relinquishment of the necessary service to its beneficiaries. In yesterday ' s statement, the Union confirmed that they had refused any increase in the patient ' s operating fees and revealed that the patient could not pay the fees, and prevented citizens from replacing the blindfolders and to health services.
She stressed her standing behind the full entitlements of the doctors and their rejection of the conditions they had been forced to sign, which indicated that they were involved in the valiant frontiers rather than free training, adding that the citizen ' s right to treatment as his right to air and life was untouchable.
The statement stated that the step taken by health to increase operational fees to pay the first chapter of the benefits of hospital workers meant that the State was disobeying its obligation to pay workers ' rights and that the hospital was besieged to pay workers ' benefits, electricity and water from its own resources, which was considered by privatization in particular and the first fruit of liquidity.
