Axel Kicillof anuncia refuerzo en entrega de medicamentos en Buenos Aires

El gobernador de Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, anunció un refuerzo en la entrega de medicamentos a los 135 municipios de la provincia. La medida amplía el programa Medicamentos Bonaerenses tras recortes nacionales en el programa Remediar. Kicillof criticó duramente al Gobierno nacional por desfinanciar políticas sanitarias.

Durante una recorrida por La Plata, Kicillof presentó la ampliación del programa Medicamentos Bonaerenses junto al ministro de Salud, Nicolás Kreplak. Visitaron el Hospital Rossi y el depósito central en el Hospital Interzonal “Dr. Alejandro Korn”, desde donde se distribuyen insumos a toda la provincia.

El programa ahora cubre 45 de los 74 fármacos destinados a personas con cobertura pública exclusiva, sumados a otros 91 medicamentos distribuidos por distintas políticas sanitarias. La inversión total alcanza los $24.500 millones. Esta acción responde al desfinanciamiento del programa nacional Remediar, cuyo vademécum pasó de más de 100 a apenas tres medicamentos, con una caída del 55% en unidades distribuidas respecto de 2023.

Kicillof calificó de “criminal” el corte de medicamentos para enfermedades comunes y acusó al Gobierno de “crear una crisis sin precedentes en nuestro sistema de salud”. Agregó: “Después de desregular los precios, avanzaron con un ajuste cruel para vaciar el programa Remediar y dejar sin asistencia a más de 20 millones de personas”.

Kreplak señaló que el Estado nacional redujo un 62% las transferencias vinculadas a insumos y medicamentos, pero la provincia redobló esfuerzos para garantizar el acceso a fármacos esenciales.

The head of government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Jorge Macri, inaugurated the first diagnostic center prioritizing local residents in Villa Urquiza. The new center aims to organize health demand and charge non-resident patients under the Prioridad Porteña program. Macri stated that 'the City will no longer be a free prepaid health plan for any foreigner'.

Buenos Aires government chief Jorge Macri signed decree N° 142-26, giving priority to residents of the Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA) in all public services. The policy expands a prior scheme used in hospitals to include administrative procedures, appointments, and state provisions. It does not bar non-residents but sets an order of service.

President José Antonio Kast sharply criticized the previous government's education management at an RN council, accusing failures in school food delivery. Former Education Minister Nicolás Cataldo dismissed the claims, noting the program serves over 2.5 million students daily through bidding processes. Cataldo linked the controversy to the current government's budget decisions.

Following initial controversy over education cuts outlined in Hacienda's April 21 memo, Chile's Treasury revealed the full scope: urging 22 ministries to eliminate 142 social programs and cut 260 others for $6 billion in savings in the 2027 budget. The proposal, tied to Finance Minister Jorge Quiroz's tax reform push emphasizing full employment as the ideal social policy, has drawn sharp criticism from scientists, unions, and opposition leaders.
