Six candidates for National Health Fund head
Poland’s Ministry of Health has said that six candidates have applied for the position of president of the National Health Fund (NFZ), the institution responsible for distributing financing in the country’s health care system.
The ministry announced the competition in early May. Monday morning was the deadline for sending applications. The chosen candidate will have to be officially nominated by the prime minister.
Personnel changes at the NFZ started in December last year when president Agnieszka Pachciarz was dismissed following a conflict with Health Minister Bartosz Arłukowicz. Marcin Pakulski was then acting president until February 28, when Wiesława Kłos took over.
