The executive director of the National Health System (SNS), economist Chanel Rosa Chupany announced that his department is working on instating a system whereby appointments can be made by telephone and thus patients will have less wait times at the health facilities nationwide. He revealed this news during an interview with the Grupo de Comunicaciones Corripio.
Rosa Chupany said that the appointments would initially be able to be made by telephone but eventually they could also be booked over the Internet. Users will be able to call *767 and *SNS free of charge. They will then be given the date, place and hour of the appointment. He did not specify a date for the start of the new appointment system.
Rosa Chupany oversees 186 public medical centers and 1,622 public primary care centers.
