Hospital Debts Hit Medical Suppliers In Hungary
Suppliers of medical products could go bankrupt, as health institutions have not been paying their bills, the vice-president of the Medical Technology Federation warned yesterday.

Viktor Tamás told Inforádió that debts accumulated by health institutions will stand at Ft 50 billion at the end of June.

The situation means some suppliers could go bankrupt, which indirectly jeopardises the safety of patient care, he said.
