More than 85% of Family Health Units are waiting for institutional incentives
A report from the national association of Family Health Units (USF) shows that 85.7% of units have institutional incentives that are either unpaid or unavailable. Furthermore, 63.6% of units were informed that incentives earned in 2025 would only be made available in 2026, as local health units (ULS) reportedly fail to release the funds or divert them to other expenses.
