藍白兩黨在立法院聯手推動多項爭議法案,引發朝野攻防與社會討論。
藍白在立法院聯手強推「老人福利法第22條修正草案」,宣稱要推動長者免健保費,卻將原條文中地方政府應補助無力負擔醫療費用長者的「部分負擔費用」及「健保給付未涵蓋之醫療費用」等重要法源刪除。民進黨發言人林楚茵痛批,藍白兩黨完全是為了挽選情,進行毫無財政紀律的「政策買票」,結果不僅「修惡還修錯」,手法極其粗糙。
林楚茵表示,這場修法大烏龍,首當其衝的就是最需要照顧的弱勢長者,恐使假牙、白內障人工水晶體、心臟血管支架等非健保給付的醫療補助失去法源依據,面臨無法編列預算的窘境,衛福部初估至少13萬名弱勢長者的醫療補助權益受到影響。
林楚茵提到,藍白版本的排富門檻過於寬鬆,高達83%長者都符合補助資格,未來若因此導致健保財務缺口擴大、保費調漲,年輕世代恐怕每人每年就得多負擔近3000元,根本是本末倒置。
林楚茵痛斥,本屆立法院藍白立委倉促修法、接連出包,早已不是第一次,先前強推「財政收支劃分法」,竟因分配公式的分子、分母計算基礎不一致,導致高達345億元的統籌分配稅款無法順利分配,後續更引發反覆修法爭議。
林楚茵說,藍白先前為了杯葛執政黨,強推「NCC組織法修正案」,試圖讓翁柏宗下台,卻未同步修正第16條有關施行日期的規定,導致修法未能立即生效,翁柏宗當時仍依法延任並代理主委,讓在野黨的政治算計當場破功。
林楚茵批評,從財劃法、NCC組織法到如今的老福法,藍白接二連三倉促修法、漏洞百出,立法專業令人打上大問號。國民黨還打算繼續推動「未滿6歲幼兒免健保費」,進一步增加中央財政負擔。這些看似慷慨的「免費政策」,卻不見藍白提出完整的財源規劃,最後產生的財政壓力,恐怕都將由正在繳納保費與稅金的「三明治世代」承擔。
林楚茵強調,在少子化與高齡化的雙重挑戰下,政府更應審慎分配有限資源,優先照顧真正有需要的弱勢族群,並持續投入托育、幼兒園及其他育兒支持措施。然而,藍白為了選舉利益,不僅讓弱勢長者原有的醫療補助陷入危機,更可能將財政負擔轉嫁給年輕世代。呼籲在野黨停止不負責任的政策買票,回歸專業、理性立法,不要為了選情開支票,最後卻讓弱勢長者與年輕世代共同買單。
