Hallengren wants to abolish the online doctor tax and create a national online doctor service on 1177

Hallengren is referring to the criticism that many digital care providers have received for having invoiced for digital visits that Region Sörmland did not assess as qualified care.

The network companies themselves have previously told SVT Sörmland that they have taken the criticism to heart and strengthened their routines.

But Hallengren is not convinced and says that the Social Democrats want to abolish the online doctor tax - which means that the regions pay compensation to digital healthcare providers for healthcare visits in another region.

- We will have a modern national online doctor service on 1177, she says.

Unclear about costs

The idea is that 1177 will continue to be run by the regions. However, the Member of Parliament cannot answer how much it would cost to ensure that 1177 would get a video service that patients could use.

However, she says that she wants the service to be introduced as soon as possible if the Social Democrats gain power.

How would the care you receive via the new national online doctor service differ from the care offered by private digital health care providers today? Hear Lena Hallengren tell in the clip above.
