立法院通過老人福利法第22條修正案,規定65歲以上長者綜合所得稅率未達20%者,其健保費由中央補助。
藍白兩黨前天在立法院院會主導通過老人福利法第22條修正條文,明定65歲以上長者綜合所得稅稅率未達20%者的健保費,由中央補助。台灣經濟民主連合智庫召集人賴中強今日指出,藍白闖禍了,惡修沒收弱勢老人補助。對此,國民黨團今晚回應,綠營側翼惡意抹黑修法將「刪除弱勢長輩醫療補助」,嚴正譴責並全力聲援民眾黨團的客觀事實澄清;在野陣營推動修法是為升級長者照顧,絕不容許少數不肖政客以政治操作製造恐慌。
賴中強表示,為了挽救選情,藍白急就章修法,結果把原本條文補助3個項目的老人醫療費用,修法後刪成只剩下「全民健康保險之保險費」1個項目。對年老無力負擔「健保部分負擔」及「健保給付未涵蓋醫療費用」者的補助法源,竟然被刪除。
賴中強說,藍白把原本各縣市根據財政狀況,自行評估是否實施的老人健保費補助,甩鍋給中央「全額負擔」,再妝點「全國擴大實施」來挽救不利的選情;結果竟然是刪除了對低收入老人與中低收入老人「健保部分負擔」及「健保給付未涵蓋醫療費用」的補助,這根本不是老人福利法的修正,而是財政收支劃分法的第四次惡修。
對此,國民黨團表示,綠營政客所謂「補助斷炊」完全是危言聳聽,弱勢長輩的看病部分負擔與自費醫療費用,早受《社會救助法》、《全民健康保險法》及地方政府各項醫療補助辦法等法規完善保障,各縣市皆已常態編列預算執行,法源獨立且穩固。
國民黨團指出,本次修法旨在終結全國老人健保費「一國多制」亂象,改由中央統一補助。這不僅讓長輩獲得公平對待,更為地方政府省下逾210億元,地方財政紓解後,反而有更充裕的資源擴大照顧弱勢,醫療補助「只會多不會少」。
國民黨團呼籲有心人士停止造謠,不要只為了刷存在感,惡意曲解法令,製造社會不安,這種針對修法的抹黑攻擊,適可而止。將持續與在野力量並肩作戰,督促行政部門落實修法早日公布施行,堅定守護全台長輩的健康與尊嚴。
