"Prohibition of Competition" does not apply to employment in hospices, care and treatment, nursing and care institutions, medical rehabilitation institutions and long-term care. This does not exclude the possibility of consulting in other hospitals.

According to him, agreement on the possibility of obtaining an additional salary increase of 600 is inconsistent with the agreement. and PLN 700 by resident doctors who undertake to practice in Poland in an entity with a contract with the NFZ. Kosikowski said that the agreement states "the obligation to work as a doctor in Poland", there was no contract with the NHF

He announced that at the end of July there will be a meeting of health professionals, on which a decision on the protests and their forms can be made
