The President, Sebastián Piñera, called this morning to all sectors to work together to promote the new Health Agenda, released in Palacio de La Moneda. "I finish these words calling for parliamentarians, civil society, groups of experts to find and work with unity, with responsibility, in taking forward this major health reform, because Chile and Chileans need it today more than ever, "he said.
Accompanied by Health Minister Jaime Mañalich, as well as parliamentarians and special guests, the Head of State announced the main scope of these initiatives that aim to improve conditions for users of public health. "It is only the action between civil society and government, what really can cope with big problems, as this challenge ahead in health, "he said.

The President said the high indicators that shows our country's health, but acknowledged that the public perception lies in this area as one of the present major problems. "When we see the basic indicators of our health care system, life expectancy, infant mortality, maternal and child mortality and many more, are at the level of developed countries in the world, "he said. As a counterpart, referred to low indicators presented on obesity, alcohol consumption, snuff, drugs and a sedentary lifestyle, among others.
Front to the above, said that "that points to health reform that inspires our government and I'm sure plays very closely to what they want and have wanted all governments, and of course what they want all Chileans."
added that the Government has assumed full responsibility for these issues, but said it is essential that citizens also take on the role it deserves. "Suddenly you see in society Chilean everyone is well aware of their rights and think the government or the state has to solve all their problems, and sometimes forget that part of the duties and the contribution that each one has to do to solve the problems, "he said.
always in this area, called the Parliament to resume the discussion of those matters that remain outstanding and have not been resolved." I want to appeal to parliamentarians. We have a bill of rights and duties of the patient, who is ten years in Congress and not moving, which is an important part, because it sets, if we involve patients, we must establish clearly what their rights but also what are their duties, "he said.
appreciated the achievements made so far in its mandate and the new challenges raised in this area will be met on time." Countries do not end with this health agenda and with this government, we move forward, but definitely reduce or eliminate the 7% is great news for 800 thousand pensioners in our country, and expand the post home for three to six months and extend the coverage of post natal, and that we make every effort, is great news not only for mothers and for children to be born, but it is great news for Chilean family for Chilean society, " said.
also alluded to the progress in infrastructure, expressed, for example, construction within four years, 20 new centers, nine of them quickly erected.
"We're making a huge effort in terms of hospital infrastructure and also infrastructure of primary care, Family Health Center and all that means strengthening the primary network," he said. Also added that "we have made a great effort also in training of specialists, it is not enough to have the infrastructure, hospitals, operating rooms or halls if it is not trained personnel, specialists, medical specialists. A massive effort to increase training in those areas where we know we have shortage of specialists, "he said.
Finally, he clarified that" we are making every effort, and at this point is no longer speaks only as a candidate who says what going to do at this point, after 14 months of government is also talking about a president who can talk about what has been done. And I think we did a lot, we've made significant progress on many fronts, and that is a credit to all Chileans, "he said.
