The invisible doctors and nurses in the communities are these

He 78.65 percent of health professionals They already appear in the registry of the National Health System (SNS)data that does not reflect the situation of all the autonomous communities, since while some are close to 100 percent of professionals employed, some are positioned around 50 percent. This is shown by the State Registry of Health Professionals and the complete breakdown by autonomous communitiesto which you have been able to access Medical Writingwhich was presented this Friday at the Interterritorial Council of the National Health System.

This percentage is the result of the division between the number of professionals in public consultation in public centers between the number of professionals according to the 2022 Public Service Report. The reason for choosing this data as a denominator, according to the document, is that it is the only information currently available on the total estimate of health professionals in public entities.

Waiting for data from private healthcare

As stated Monica GarciaMinister of Health, in the press conference after the CISNS, “the REPS still has to be fed by private institutions.” In fact, he has pointed out that in Catalonia, for example, there are certain companies or some professionals who do not work directly for public healthalthough they practice in the Catalan Health Service, as happens in all regions. For this reason, the data provided in the report does not fully reflect the situation of professionals charged in each CCAA, since “the different administrations and entities have to fill out the registry.”
