Santo Domingo, DR
President-elect Luis Abinader said that from his inauguration next Sunday he would begin a process to go to 100 percent of Dominicans in access to the fitness insurance services of the family circle, a policy that he hopes to supplement until December next.
Abinader said that his Government will include 2 million Dominicans in the Family Health Insurance and that this would occur with the savings that his administration will bring about with the merger and elimination of unnecessary institutions.
“With the savings that the State will obtain from the merger and elimination of unnecessary institutions, as of August 16, we will save the necessary resources to include the two million Dominicans who are not in Family Health Insurance. By December of this year, 100% of Dominicans will have access to health services, “wrote President Abinader in his account on the social network Twitter.
According to the statement issued, the president-elect’s decision comes at increased spending on physical conditioning due to the effect of coronavirus (Covid-19) on the country.
A note from his press workplace states that the resolution honors Abinader’s commitment to replace to invest where needed and for unnecessary expenses.
“The expansion of the fitness insurance policy is encouraging news for many families who are uninsured to cope with emerging fitness care prices because of the effect of the Covid-19 epidemic.”
Elimination and fusion
The president-elect has announced a series of government measures to be initiated from the 16th of this month.
From that date, the Office of Engineers Guilty of Public Works (Oisoe) will be abolished, following a series of corruption scandals that have implicated the establishment since its inception.
Abinader also announced the merger of the State Sugar Council (CEA) with the Directorate-General for National Goods. The President-elect was trusting that the amounts of land to be allocated “will go towards social, productive and economicly progressive projects.”
It will also order the removal of the Reformed Business Heritage Fund (FONPER) and that the resources it receives be transferred to the fitness sector due to the countless instances of corruption that have ravaged the institution.
Similarly, it was that the Ministry of Energy and Mines would become the regulatory body of the Dominican Republic’s electricity sector and that the Dominican Corporation of State Electricity Companies (CDEEE) would be removed within the first six months of President Abinader’s government. .
The president-elect will assume power next Sunday, after triumphing in the first round of the presidential and legislative elections on July 5, after defeating Gonzalo Castillo, candidate of the ruling Dominican Liberation Party (PLD).
