Outpatient medical care for migrants in the international practices in Chemnitz and Dresden is secured for the coming year. The Free State will continue to contribute to the funding in 2025, as announced by the Ministry of Health.
"We are pleased to be able to continue to provide medical care for people arriving in the Free State of Saxony directly on site despite language barriers," said Health Minister Petra Köpping (SPD) in a statement. In this way, a welcoming culture and infection protection could succeed.
The interpreting services in the surgeries often make targeted medical care possible in the first place, said Kristin Klaudia Kaufmann, Dresden's deputy for labor, social affairs, health and housing. Incorrect treatment and subsequent costs could be avoided in this way.
